8.
Carefully prop the Transmitter Electronics Enclosure to the side. Make sure the
enclosure is stable and does not roll.
9.
Use a 1/8 inch (3mm) flat-blade screw driver and disconnect the transducer wiring
terminal block from the Acquisition Module (
).
10.
Place the Transmitter Electronics Enclosure in a clean dry area. Be careful not to
dislodge or damage the enclosure gasket (
see Warning above
).
11.
Remove the transducer cable wires from the terminal block and slide the existing cable
through the Base Enclosure gland.
12.
Use the existing cable and cut the new cable to same length.
13.
Make sure the keyed parts are correctly aligned and insert cable connector into the
transducers and tighten the locking nut.
14.
Route the cable through the gland on the Base Enclosure and pull the cable up through
the Base Enclosure to allow enough slack to strip the cable wire.
15.
Strip the outer insulation, outer shield, and inner insulation to just inside the cable gland
using a utility knife. Verify that insulation of individual wires were not cut while
removing outer layers. Strip each wire 1/4 inch and wire them to the Acquisition
Module terminal block. Check the label number (i.e. A1) on the Acquisition Module and
match it with the label on the cable. Securely tighten the mounting screws of terminal
block J1 and J2 as shown in
.
CRUSHING HAZARD
During meter installation or removal, always place the unit on a stable platform or
surface that supports its assembled weight.
Failure to do so could allow the meter to roll, resulting in serious injury or equipment
damage.
