Introduction

Thank you for purchasing a Series MNU IS Intrinsically Safe Modbus Ultrasonic Sensor from APG. We 
appreciate your business! Please take a few minutes to familiarize yourself with your MNU IS and this 
manual.

MNU IS ultrasonic sensors are rugged, low-power units, rated Intrinsically Safe for hazardous location 

installations. They feature APG’s new QuickStart Mode for power-saving, on-demand measurements and 

optional Gas Discharge Tube surge protection. All MNU IS sensors are fully programmable via RS-485 
Modbus communications, and with APG Modbus software and an RS-485-to-USB converter.

 

Reading your label

Every APG instrument comes with a label that includes the instrument’s model number, part number, serial 
number, and a wiring pinout table. Please ensure that the part number and pinout table on your label 
match your order. 

 

IMPORTANT

: Your MNU IS sensor MUST be installed according to drawing 9005002 

(Hazardous Installation Drawing) located at the back of the manual to meet listed approv-
als. Faulty installation will invalidate all safety approvals and ratings.
