February 2020 Quick Start Guide
1 About this guide
This guide provides basic guidelines for Rosemount 0068, 0078, and 0183
Sensor models. It does not provide instructions for configuration,
diagnostics, maintenance, service, troubleshooting, explosion-proof,
flameproof, or intrinsically safe (I.S.) installations. If the Rosemount Volume
1 Sensor was ordered assembled to a temperature transmitter, see the
appropriate transmitter Quick Start Guide for information on configuration
and hazardous locations certifications.
NOTICE
Complications can arise when sensors and the transmitters to which they are
assembled have compatible but unique approvals. Be aware of the following
situation:
• If an I.S. approved 1067 sensor is ordered with a housing and
transmitter, the transmitter enclosed in that housing may have a
different I.S. approval rating. Refer to the transmitter IS certificate if
applicable.
• If a sensor and transmitter have different certifications, or if either has
more certifications than the other, installation must comply with the
most restrictive requirements of either component. This is especially
(but not exclusively) relevant when combination approvals are ordered
on either the sensor or transmitter. Review certifications on both the
sensor and transmitter for installation requirements and ensure
installation of the sensor/transmitter assembly complies with a single
certification that is shared by both of these components and that meets
the requirements of the application.
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.

Note
For three-wire systems, use one white and two red leads. Do not connect the
white leads. Insulate or terminate the unused white lead in a manner that
prevents shorting to the ground. For two-wire systems, connect both sets of
leads.

3 Rosemount Series 58C sheath cutting
Procedure
1. Determine the length to which the sheath will be cut. The finished
length needs to include an additional 1.5-in. (3.8 cm) for
compression fittings or 2.5-in. (6.5 cm) for spring-loaded fittings (see
Figure 4-1).
2. Remove and save the heat shrink tubing from the rear of the sensor.
3. Place the sensor in a vise, taking care not to overtighten, and position
the tubing cutter on the sheath.
4. Score the sheath to a depth of approximately 1/64-in. (0.4 cm) To
prevent damage to the lead wire insulation, do not cut completely
through the sheath.
5. Firmly grasp the end of the sheath with your hand or a pair of pliers.
Using a sharp snapping motion, break off and remove the excess
sheath material. Take care not to strip or damage the lead wire
insulation while removing the excess sheath material.
Note
If you are unable to easily break off excess sheath material, deepen
the score and repeat Step 5.
6. Replace the heat shrink tubing.
