1.1Flowmeter components
The transmitter is one component of a Micro Motion flowmeter. The other major
component is the sensor.
A third component, called the core processor, provides additional memory and processing
functions.
Planning
1.1.1Installation types
Model 1500 and Model 2500 transmitters can be installed two different ways, only one of
which applies to your specific installation.
•4-wire remote – The transmitter is installed remotely from the sensor. You need to
mount the transmitter separately from the sensor, connect a 4-wire cable between
the transmitter and sensor, and connect power and I/O wiring to the transmitter.

Mounting and sensor wiring for remote core processor with remote sensor installations
Cable types
Micro Motion supplies three types of 9-wire cable: jacketed, shielded, and armored. Note
the following differences between the cable types:
•Armored cable provides mechanical protection for the cable wires.
•Jacketed cable has a smaller bend radius than shielded or armored cable.
•If ATEX compliance is required, the different cable types have different installation
requirements.
Cable jacket types
All cable types can be ordered with a PVC jacket or Teflon® FEP jacket. Teflon FEP is
required for the following installation types:
•All installations that include a T-series sensor.
•All installations with a cable length of 250 ft (75 m) or greater, a nominal flow less
than 20 percent, and ambient temperature changes greater than +68 °F (+20 °C).
Cable jacket material and temperature rangesTable 3-2:
Mounting and sensor wiring for remote core processor with remote sensor installations
3.6Wire the remote core processor to the sensor
using jacketed cable
For ATEX installations, the jacketed cable must be installed inside a user-supplied sealed
metallic conduit that provides 360° termination shielding for the enclosed cable.
CAUTION!
Sensor wiring is intrinsically safe. To keep sensor wiring intrinsically safe, keep the sensor
wiring separated from power supply wiring and output wiring.
CAUTION!
Keep cable away from devices such as transformers, motors, and power lines, which produce
large magnetic fields. Improper installation of cable, cable gland, or conduit could cause
inaccurate measurements or flow meter failure.
CAUTION!
Improperly sealed housings can expose electronics to moisture, which can cause measurement
error or flowmeter failure. Install drip legs in conduit and cable, if necessary. Inspect and
grease all gaskets and O-rings. Fully close and tighten all housing covers and conduit openings.
1.Run the cable through the conduit. Do not install 9-wire cable and power cable in
the same conduit.
2.To prevent conduit connectors from seizing in the threads of the conduit openings,
apply a conductive anti-galling compound to the threads, or wrap threads with PTFE
tape two to three layers deep.
Wrap the tape in the opposite direction that the male threads will turn when
inserted into the female conduit opening.
3.Remove the junction box cover and core processor end-cap.
4.At both the sensor and transmitter, do the following:
a. Connect a male conduit connector and waterproof seal to the conduit opening
for 9-wire.
b. Pass the cable through the conduit opening for the 9-wire cable.
c. Insert the stripped end of each wire into the corresponding terminal at the
sensor and transmitter ends, matching by color. No bare wires should remain
exposed.

3.7Wire the remote core processor to the sensor
using shielded or armored cable
For ATEX installations, shielded or armored cable must be installed with cable glands, at
both the sensor and remote core processor ends. Cable glands that meet ATEX
requirements can be purchased from Micro Motion. Cable glands from other vendors can
be used.
CAUTION!
Keep cable away from devices such as transformers, motors, and power lines, which produce
large magnetic fields. Improper installation of cable, cable gland, or conduit could cause
inaccurate measurements or flow meter failure.
CAUTION!
Install cable glands in the 9-wire conduit opening in the transmitter housing and the sensor
junction box. Ensure that the cable drain wires and shields do not make contact with the
junction box or the transmitter housing. Improper installation of cable or cable glands could
cause inaccurate measurements or flow meter failure.
CAUTION!
Improperly sealed housings can expose electronics to moisture, which can cause measurement
error or flowmeter failure. Install drip legs in conduit and cable, if necessary. Inspect and
grease all gaskets and O-rings. Fully close and tighten all housing covers and conduit openings.

Electrical connectionsTable 7-1:
TypeDescriptions
Input/output connectionsThree pairs of wiring terminals for transmitter outputs. Screw ter-
minals accept stranded or solid conductors, 24 to 12 AWG (0.40
to 3.5 mm2).
Power connectionsThe transmitter has two pairs of terminals for the power connec-
tion:
• Either pair accepts DC power
• The remaining pair is used for making a jumper connection to
a second transmitter
Plug terminals accept solid or stranded conductors, 24 to
12 AWG (0.40 to 3.5 mm2).
Digital communications maintenance connections
Core processor connectionThe transmitter has two pairs of terminals for the 4-wire connec-
Two clips for temporary connection to the service port. One pair
of terminals supports Modbus/RS-485 signal or service port
mode. On device power-up, user has 10 seconds to connect in
service port mode. After 10 seconds, the terminals default to
Modbus/RS-485 mode.
tion to the core processor:
• One pair is used for the RS-485 connection to the core pro-
cessor
• One pair is used to supply power to the core processor
Plug terminals accept solid or stranded conductors, 24 to
12 AWG (0.40 to 3.5 mm2).
