6.2.2 Installation of Sensor PIOX R400, R400B, R400C, R400A2
The sensor PIOX R400 with FLEXIM flange is fastened to the process connection using a slit ring. The gasket (O-
ring) which is in contact with the medium is placed correctly by a thrust ring (see Fig. 6.7).

6.3 Connection of Sensor PIOX R400 with Transmitter PIOX TR374
Mount the sensor to the pipe at the selected measuring point (see chapter 5). The cable glands for connecting to
the junction box and transmitter are included with the PIOX R400.
6.3.1 Direct Connection
•
Remove the blind plug for the connection of the sensor (see Fig. 6.9).
•
Open the cable gland of the sensor cable. The compression part remains in the cap nut
(see Fig. 6.8).

Attention!
The degree of protection of PIOX TR374 is only guaranteed if the cables fit firmly and tightly in
the cable glands, the cable glands are firmly tightened and the housings have been tightly
screwed.
Note!
It is recommended to run the cables from the measuring point to the transmitter before the
connection of the sensor, to avoid load on the connectors.
