Connect the highest liquid level tapping of tank to the low pressure side of transmitter, and
the lowest liquid level tapping of tank to the high pressure side (
fl
ange side) of transmit-
ter.

Cautions on installation
• Restriction on H
1
Liquid level is not proportional to the transmitter output at some points inside the seal
diaphragm.
Therefore, H
1
should be set higher than the value shown in the table below.
• In order to prevent vibration of the transmitter body and capillary from interfering with
output, the transmitter body should be installed at a vibration-free place and the capillary
should be
fi
xed to a stable support.
• Do not shock the seal diaphragm by hitting hard object against it, for example.
• Do not apply an excessive force to the
fl
ange during connection.
• Freeze protection.
When the measuring
fl
uid is likely to freeze in the cover of the measurement chamber, the cover
needs to be warmed up with steam or a heater.
Don't exceed the previous temperature limits (measuring cell : 120°C maxi and transmitter :
85°C).
Even when the installations shut down the heat must be maintained, if not the transmitter and
impulse pipes must be drained to prevent freezing.
