4.3 MEASURING HEAD INSTALLATION
Before actually installing the Measuring Head on the bus, the head may be checked for damage
to the Measuring Head and performing a head resistance check per Table 4.1 first, if desired.
This is accomplished by connecting the cables with the Measuring Head removed from the bus.
After the procedure is complete, the Measuring Head should be mounted according to the
instructions in “Installation Considerations” section 4.4.
Check the mating faces of the Measuring Head. Make absolutely certain that the serial
numbers of both halves of the Measuring Head match; otherwise you may cause misalignment
and unit failure. Use only a small brush or cloth to remove any dirt particles from the Measuring
Head part-line insulation, multi-conductor connector, and latch areas.
NOTE
When installing the Measuring Head, protect the window insulation from impact, and do
not let the weight of the Measuring Head rest upon the window insulation as it can be
easily damaged. Also, the interconnecting cable is of top quality, but it is not armored.
Protect it from abrasion and sharp edges.

CAUTION:
The part-line insulation pieces (located on the mating surfaces of the head) are brittle and
can be easily damaged if one is not careful during installation. Mount the bottom half of the head on
the floor or platform and secure it in place temporarily. An arrow indicates the direction that
conventional bus current must flow through the aperture: (+ to -). Place the upper half of the
measuring head over the bus. Connect the bottom half of the head to the top half using the M8 bolts
