Power Module Installation
NOTE:
Wireless devices should be powered up in order of proximity from the Smart Wireless
Gateway, beginning with the closest device to the Smart Wireless Gateway. This will
result in faster network formation.
Mounting Considerations
1. Mounting bands should be inspected periodically and retightened if necessary. Some
loosening may occur after initial installation due to thermal expansion/contraction.
2. The waveguide must be in direct contact with the pipe.
3. Insulate process piping to minimize ambient temperature effects (see Figure 6).
Insulation thickness over the top of the waveguide foot should not exceed 1-in (2.54 cm).
4. For best results, mount the transmitter within 6 in. (15.24 cm) of the equipment to be
monitored.
5. The stainless steel mounting bands could be affected by stress corrosion and potentially
fail when in the presence of chlorides.
6. The transmitter should be installed such that steam or other high temperature fluids do
not directly impinge the housing of the device.
7. If installing the device on a steam trap, the device should be installed on the upstream
side of the trap.
