WARNING
Hazardous area installation
Installations near flammable liquids or in hazardous area locations must be carefully evaluated by
qualified on site safety personnel.
To secure and maintain intrinsically safe installation, use an appropriate transmitter/safety barrier/
sensor combination. The installation system must be in accordance with the governing approval
agency (FM, CSA, or BASEEFA/CENELEC) hazardous area classification requirements. Consult your
transmitter Reference Manual for details.
Proper installation, operation, and servicing of this sensor in a hazardous area installation are
entirely the operator's responsibility.

WARNING
Physical access
Unauthorized personnel may potentially cause significant damage to and/or misconfiguration of end
users’ equipment. This could be intentional or unintentional and needs to be protected against.
Physical security is an important part of any security program and fundamental to protecting your
system. Restrict physical access by unauthorized personnel to protect end users’ assets. This is true for
all systems used within the facility.
CAUTION
Sensor/process application compatibility
The wetted sensor materials may not be compatible with process composition and operating
conditions.
Application compatibility is entirely the operator's responsibility.
CAUTION
Sensor/process application compatibility
All pH/ORP sensors have a plastic enclosure which must only be cleaned with a damp cloth to
avoid the danger due to a build up of electrostatic charge.
All pH/ORP sensor models are intended to be in contact with the process fluid and may not meet
the 500 r.m.s.a.c. test to earth.
Take this into consideration at the time of installation.

1 Install
1.1 Unpack and inspect
Procedure
1. Inspect the outside of the carton for any damage. If you detect
damage, contact the carrier immediately.
2. Inspect the hardware. Make sure all the items in the packing list are
present and in good condition. Notify the factory if any part is
missing.
Note
Save the original packing cartons and materials as most carriers
require proof of damage due to mishandling, etc. Also, if it is
necessary to return the sensor to the factory, you must pack the
sensor in the same manner as it was received. Refer to Return of
material for return instructions.
WARNING
Buffer solution in the vinyl boot may cause skin or eye irritation.
Wear personal protective equipment.
Avoid contact with skin and eyes.
CAUTION
Glass electrode must be wetted at all times (in storage and in line) to
maximize sensor life.
Postrequisites
If the sensor appears to be in satisfactory condition, proceed to Mount
sensor.

Mount sensor
Emerson has designed the sensor to be located in industrial process
environments.
Do not exceed temperature and pressure limitations at any time. A caution
label regarding this matter is attached to the sensor. Please do not remove
the label.
See Figure 1-1 for dimensional information to ensure proper installation into
your process.
Quick Start Guide November 2020
WARNING
Pressurized spray injury
US and foreign patents pending.
Do not exceed pressure and temperature specifications: 0 to 150 psig (0
to 1135 kPa), 32 to 212 °F (0 to 100 °C).
Remove pressure and allow to cool before removal.
Read and follow Quick Start Guide.

WARNING
Internal electrolyte fill solution may cause skin or eye irritation.
Wear personal protection equipment (PPE).
Avoid contact with skin and eyes.
1. Shake the sensor in a downward motion to remove any air bubbles
that may be present inside the tip of the pH glass.
2. Do not install the sensor on the horizontal. The sensor must be 10
degrees off the horizontal to ensure accuracy.
3. Do not install the sensor upside down.
4. Air bubbles may become trapped in the sensor end between the
glass bulb and the sensor body. This problem is most commonly
encountered in areas of low flow or during calibration. Shake the
probe while immersed in solution to remove bubbles. To avoid this
problem, order the sensor with the slotted tip (option -41).
In most cases, you can simply install the pH sensor as shipped and obtain
readings with an accuracy of ±0.6 pH. To obtain greater accuracy or to verify
proper operation, calibrate the sensor as a loop with its compatible
transmitter.
1.2.1 Flow through and insertion mounting
Rosemount 396P and 396PVP Sensors have a 1-in. (25.4 mm) male national
pipe thread (MNPT) process connection at the front of the sensor for
mounting into a 1½-in. (38.1 mm) tee or the process pipes.
See Figure 1-2 through Figure 1-8 for installation configurations.
Note
Do not use large pipe wrenches to tighten the sensor into a flange or other
type of mounting.

1.2.2 Submersion mounting
Rosemount 396P and 396PVP sensors also have a 1-in. (25.4 mm) male
national pipe thread (MNPT) process connection at the back of the sensor.
Using a standard 1-in. (25.4 mm) union, you can mount the sensor to a 1-in.
(25.4 mm) schedule 80 CPVC or PVDF standpipe.
Tapered pipe threads in plastic tend to loosen after installation. Therefore,
Emerson recommends using PTFE tape on the threads and checking the
tightness of the connection frequently to assure that no loosening has
occurred. To prevent rain water or condensation from running into the
sensor, Emerson recommends using a weatherproof junction box. Run the
sensor cable through a protective conduit for isolation from electrical
interference or physical abuse from the process. Install the sensor within 80
degrees of vertical, with the electrode facing down. Do not run the sensor's
cable with power or control wiring.

2 Wire
2.1 General wiring guidelines
Figures in Wiring diagrams provide guidelines for wiring the Rosemount
396P sensor to various transmitters.
To determine which wiring diagram to use, locate the model number of the
sensor to be installed.
If you need to extend the cable, use a high quality eleven conductor doubleshielded instrument cable (part number 9200273) available from Emerson.
Note
If the cable is too long, loop up the excess cable. If you need to shorten the
cable, cut and terminate each conductor neatly and make sure that the
overall (outermost) drain wire is not shorted out with either of the two inner
drain wires (shields).
Run signal cable in a dedicated conduit (preferably an earth grounded
metallic conduit) and keep it away from AC power lines. For your
convenience, Emerson has furnished a wire nut kit (in a plastic bag wrapped
around the cable).
CAUTION
For maximum electromagnetic interference/radio frequency interference
(EMI/RFI) protection when wiring from the sensor to the junction box,
connect the outer braid of the sensor to the outer braided shield of the
extension cable. Terminate the outer braid of the extension cable to the
instrument at earth ground or use an appropriate metal cable gland fitting
to provide a secure connection to the instrument cable.
2.2 Wiring diagrams
The Rosemount 396P has an optional built-in preamplifier and comes with a
shielded cable.
WARNING
Serious injury may result.
Do not connect sensor cable to power lines.
Quick Start Guide 17
Quick Start Guide November 2020
CAUTION
Handle the cable carefully and keep it dry and free of corrosive chemicals
at all times.
Take extreme care to prevent it from being twisted, damaged, or
scraped by rough, sharp edges or surfaces.
Note
Remove electrical tape or shrink sleeve away from gray reference wire
before connecting wire to terminal.
