LPT-M - Operation Manual
use a conduit connector that has more than 12.7 mm (½ in) of thread length.
NOTE:
When mounting the enclosure, allow enough room to allow the end user
to open the door fully to access the internal adjustments.
5.5.1 Wet Environment Considerations
If the LPT-M is to be installed in a potential hose-down application or any
application whereby liquid could be directed towards the sensor opening, the
LPT-M should be ordered with an optional attached splash guard (factory
installed).
If used in a wet or wash down application, the conduit hub entering the LPT-M
enclosure must be liquid tight type.
Any water or physical damage to the
transmitter that occurs from the installer drilling their own installation holes will
not be covered under warranty.
5.5.2 EMI and RF Interference Considerations
All electronic devices are susceptible to EMI (Electromagnetic Interference)
and RFI (Radio Frequency Interference). Our detectors have been designed
to reduce the effects of these interferences and we meet CSA FCC and CE
requirements for these type of devices. However there are still circumstances
and levels of interference that may cause our equipment to respond to these
interferences and cause them to react as if there has been gas detected.
There are some installation procedures that will reduce the likelihood of getting
faulty readings:
1. Locate the detectors and controllers out of the way from normal foot
traffic and high energy equipment.
2.
Confirm the devices are properly grounded using conduit and shielded
cabling.
3. Inform operators and technical staff working in the surrounding area
to be aware of these possible conditions and that two way radios,
