A5E31917845
INSTALLATION
There is no need to remove the meter from its case to
complete the installation, wiring, and setup of the meter for
most applications. Instructions are provided for changing the
transmitter power supply to output 5 or 10 VDC instead of 24
VDC, see Transmitter Supply Voltage Selection on page 6.
Unpacking
Remove the meter from box. Inspect the packaging and
contents for damage. Report damages, if any, to the carrier.
If any part is missing or the meter malfunctions, please contact
your supplier or the factory for assistance.
Panel Mounting Instructions
Prepare a standard 1/8 DIN panel cutout – 3.622" x 1.772" (92 mm x
45 mm). See graphic below for more details.
Clearance: allow at least 6.0" (152 mm) behind the panel for wiring.
Panel thickness: 0.04" - 0.25" (1.0 mm - 6.4 mm).
Recommended minimum panel thickness to maintain Type 4X
rating: 0.06" (1.5 mm) steel panel, 0.16" (4.1 mm) plastic panel.
Remove the two mounting brackets provided with the meter (back-off the two
screws so that there is ¼" (6.4 mm) or less through the bracket. Slide the
bracket toward the front of the case and remove).
Insert meter into the panel cutout.
Install mounting brackets and tighten the screws against the panel. To
achieve a proper seal, tighten the mounting bracket screws evenly until
meter is snug to the panel along its short side. DO NOT OVER TIGHTEN,
as the rear of the panel may be damaged.
