About This Document
This document describes mounting, installation and wiring of the XYR 6000 Wireless Transmitters and antennae.
Configuration, authentication and ope rat i on are covered in other documents.
Honeywell does not recommend using devices for critical control where there is a single point of failure or where
single points of failure result in unsafe conditions. The initial release of OneWireless (R100) is targeted at open
loop control, supervisory control, and controls that do not have environmental or safety consequences. As with any
process control solution, the end-user must weigh the risk s and benefits to determine if the products used are the
right match for the application based on security, safety, and performance. Additionally, it is up to the end-user to
ensure that the control strategy sheds to a safe operating condition if any crucial segment of the con trol solution
fails.

Figure 1 shows some commonly used bracket and pipe orientations. Not all possibilities are shown; you
can use any bracket (flat or angle) and orientation (parallel or transverse) to get the desired transmitter
positioning.
Position bracket on 2-inch (50.8 mm) pipe and install “U” bolt around pipe and through holes in bracket.
Secure with nuts and lockwashers provided.
•Below but close to the
elevation of the process

The condensate drains away from the
transmitter.
•This minimizes the static head
effect of the condensate.
•This requires a siphon to protect
the transmitter from process
steam. The siphon retains water as
a “fill fluid.”
You can rotate the transmitter for better viewing, access, or antenna position. Loosen set screw (see A in
Figure 2) on outside neck of transmitter one full turn. Rotate transmitter housing up to 180 degrees in
either direction to desired position.

Procedure
WARNING
Risk of death or serious injury by explosion. Do not open transmitter
enclosure when an explosive gas atmosphere is present.
Take precautions against electrostatic discharge to prevent damaging the
display/sensor module.
Table 2-1 Display adjustment
Step Action
1
Honeywell recommends that the transmitter be removed from service and moved to a clean
area before servicing.
2
Loosen the M3 locking set screw on the display end-cap. See item 1 in Figure 3. Unscrew and
remove the end cap.
3
Loosen the two captive screws on the display/sensor module. See items 2 in Figure 3.
4
Rotate the display 90 degrees in either direction so the screws line up with the threaded holes.
Do not rotate more than 90 degrees or you could damage the wires behind the display.
The actual piping arrangement will vary depending upon the process measurement requirements and the
transmitter model. Except for flanged and remote diaphragm seal connections, process connections are
made to ¼ inch or ½ inch NPT female connections in the process head of the transmitter’s meter body. For
example, a differential pressure transmitter comes with double ended process heads with ¼ inch NPT
connections but they can be modified to accept ½ inch NPT through optional flange adapters. Some gauge
pressure transmitters may have a ½ inch NPT connection which mounts directly to a process pipe.
The most common type of pipe used is ½ inch schedule 80 steel pipe. Many piping arrangements use a
three-valve manifold to connect the process piping to the transmitter. A manifold makes it easy to install
and remove or rezero a transmitter without interrupting the process. It also accommodates the installation
of blow-down valves to clear debris from pressure lines to the transmitter.
Figure 4 shows a diagram of a typical piping arrangement using a 3-valve manifold and blow-down lines
for a differential pressure transmitter being used to measure flow.

Another piping arrangement uses a block-off valve and a tee connector in the process piping to the
transmitter as shown in Figure 5.
Figure 5 Typical Arrangement for ½” NPT Process Connection Piping
ATTENTION
For liquid or steam, the piping should slope a minimum of 25.4 mm (1 inch) per 305 mm (1
foot). Slope the piping down towards the transmitter if the transmitter is below the process
connection so the bubbles may rise back into the piping through the liquid. If the transmitter is
located above the process connection, the piping should rise vertically above the transmitter;
then slope down towards the flowline with a vent valve at the high point. For gas
measurement, use a condensate leg and drain at the low point (freeze protection may be
required here).
CAUTION
Property damage may result if operating temperature limits of transmitter are exceeded.
Electronics housing must not exceed 85° C [185° F], meterbody temperature limit may be
rated higher. Consult transmitter nameplate for meterbody temperature limits. To reduce
the temperature of the process that comes into contact with the transmitter meter body, install
impulse piping. As a general rule there is a 56 degree C drop (100 degrees F) in the
temperature of the process for every foot (305 mm) of ½ inch uninsulated piping.

General piping guidelines
When measuring fluids containing suspended solids, install permanent valves at regular intervals to blowdown piping.
Blow-down all lines on new installations with compressed air or steam and flush them with process fluids
(where possible) before connecting these lines to the transmitter’s meter body.
Be sure all the valves in the blow-down lines are closed tight after the initial blow-down procedure and
each maintenance procedure after that.
See Figure 7. HLAI transmitter is shown at left. Open the rear end cap
(opposite end from display).
2
Open the cable gland (on right side below antenna).
3
Feed wiring (allowed diameter 6 to 8 mm) from other transmitter through the
cable gland and connect to terminal block using either voltage or current but
not both. See Figure 8 or Figure 9. For hazardous locations see page 27.
The corrosion probe must be installed in a location that is most susceptible to corros ion. In most cases,
corrosion tends to occur where water is trapped or stagnant. However, it can also accelerate at the bend of
the pipe or where corrosion has occurred previously, but is accelerated by high flow or turbulence.
Location Picture
Incorrect probe location
The probe should not be mounted in a
pipe drop since the corrosive liquid
may not be in full contact with the
electrodes.
Correct probe location
The probe should be mounted in the
riser of a pipe near an elbow where
the velocity is the highest. In general,
probe should be mounted in pipes or
tanks at locations of highest liquid
velocity and constant immersion.
Correct Pipeline Position
Probe can be located at any point on
the pipeline but should always be
immersed in the corrosive material.
Probe can be located at any point on
the pipeline but should always be
immersed in the corrosive material.
3. Process insertion
3.4. Corrosion models
Located in Bypass Loop
Probe should be located downstream
of a control valve for best performance
and can also be located in the deadleg
portion of a by-pass.
Note that the probe located in the bypass leg should be mounted before
the valve for best performance. This
guarantees the electrodes will always
be immersed in the corrosive material.
Mounted with Different Electrodes
Installing with different electrode
materials on the suction side of the
pump will ensure monitoring of the
pump impeller and the pipe.
Installed in a Condensate Flash Tank
A condensate flash tank is also a good
application.
The probe is shown in the blow down
of a Y-strainer.
Location Picture
Mounted in Basket Strainer
The probe is shown in the discharge
side of the basket strainer.
The electrodes should be selected to reflect the same metal properties as the piping or other components
that might be susceptible to corrosion. For example, in applications where the pipe is made of stainless
steel and the water pump’s impeller is made of carbon steel, the impeller will corrode faster than the pipe.
In this case it is advisable to select the electrodes to be the same material as the pump’s impeller.
If the pipe or vessel into which the probe is to be inserted is under pressure
and/or contains any hazardous substance, such as steam, caustic solutions,
acids, toxins or other substances specified by OSHA as physical or health
hazards, the pipe or vessel must first be depressurized and any hazardous
substance purged there from, and appropriate lockout/tagout procedures
observed in accordance with Section 1910.147 of the OSHA Regulations,
before the probe can be installed. Failure to follow these procedures may
result in serious injury or death.

Some probes are supplied with an adjustable, compression NPT fitting (e.g.
Swagelok). With this fitting, follow this tightening sequence to ensure a tight
seal.
a) The Swagelok fitting should be held onto place with a plastic zip-tie
around the probe body. The zip-tie should be removed.
b) Determine the depth that the probe should extend into the pipe.
c) Tighten the larger upper nut until the tubing will not rotate freely by hand.
d) Make a mark on the nut. This mark will serve as a reference as the 6
o’clock position.
e) While holding fitting body steady, tighten the large upper nut 1 + 1⁄4 turns
to the 9 o’clock position.
f) This tightening sequence will crimp the internal ring onto the probe body
and should lock the fitting in place now.
g) Tighten the lower nut onto the pipe nipple or access point.
For fixed type probes (without the adjustable compression fitting) only the
1 1/16 hex nut needs to be tightened and the safety bracket is not required.
2
Ensure the flow rate of the process fluid does not exceed 20 feet per second
(fps). Stronger flow might damage probes with three finger electrodes and
interfere with the reading. If the flow rate exceeds the recommendation, a
different probe style may be required.
Professional Installation is required to insure conformity with Federal Communications
Commission (FCC) in the USA, Industry Canada (IC) in Canada and the Radio and
Telecommunications Terminal Equipment Directive, 1999/5/EC (R&TTE), in the European
Union (EU).
Professional installation is required for the selection and installation of approved antennas and
setup of the maximum allowable radiated power from the XYR 6000 Wireless Transmitter as
configured for the particular installation site.
The antennae used for this transmitter must be installed to provide a separation distance of at
least 20 cm (8 inches) from all persons and must not be co-located or operating in conjunction
with any other antenna or transmitter.
For remote antenna, see antenna installation requirements to satisfy FCC RF exposure
requirements.
ATTENTION
Federal Communications Commission (FCC):
The XYR 6000 Wireless Transmitters comply with part 15 of the FCC rules. Operation is
subject to the following two conditions: (1) this device may not cause harmful interference, and
(2) this device must accept any interference received, including interference that may cause
undesired operation.
Industry Canada (IC):
The installer of this radio equipment must ensure that the antenna is located or pointed such
that it does not emit RF fields in excess of Health Canada limits for the general population;
consult Safety Code 6, obtainable from Health Canada’s web site www.hc-sc.gc.ca/rpb.
4.2 Integral antenna
WARNING
POTENTIAL ELECTROSTATIC CHARGING HAZARD
The integrally mounted antenna shroud is made of Teflon® and has a surface
resistance greater than 1Gohm per square. When the XYR 6000 transmitter
is installed in potentially hazardous locations care should be taken not to
electrostatically charge the surface of the antenna shroud by rubbing the
surface with a cloth, or cleaning the surface with a solvent. If electrostatically
charged, discharge of the antenna shroud to a person or a tool could possibly
ignite a surrounding hazardous atmosphere.
If your model has the integral elbow anntena you can adjust it to improve operation. Typically, pointed
straight up gives best performance but your installation may vary. Loosen the 1.5mm set screw located
near the antenna base. Rotate antenna for best reception. Do not rotate antenna more than 180 degrees
either direction or you could damage internal wiring. Tighten set screw.
If your model has the integral straight anntena (Figure 12) you can adjust its position by rotating the
transmitter housing. (See page 6.) Typically, pointed straight up gives best performance but your
installation may vary.
4.3 Remote antenna
Outdoor installation warnings
WARNING
LIVES MAY BE AT RISK! Carefully observe these instructions and any special instructions
that are included with the equipment you are installing.
WARNING
Contacting power lines can be lethal.
Look over the site before beginning any installation, and anticipate possible hazards,
especially these:
Make sure no power lines are anywhere where possible contact can be made. Antennas,
masts, towers, guy wires or cables may lean or fall and contact these lines. People may be
injured or killed if they are touching or holding any part of equipment when it contacts electric
lines. Make sure there is NO possibility that equipment or personnel can come in contact
directly or indirectly with power lines.
4. Antenna adjustment and mounting
4.3. Remote antenna
Assume all overhead lines are power lines.
The horizontal distance from a tower, mast or antenna to the nearest power line should be at
least twice the total length of the mast/antenna combination. This will ensure that the mast will
not contact power if it falls either during installation or later.
WARNING
To avoid falling, use safe procedures when working at heights above ground.
Select equipment locations that will allow safe, simple equipment installation.
Don’t work alone. A friend or co-worker can save your life if an accident happens.
Use approved non-conducting ladders and other safety equipment. Make sure all equipment is
in good repair.
If a tower or mast begins falling, don’t attempt to catch it. Stand back and let it fall.
If anything such as a wire or mast does come in contact with a power line, DON’T TOUCH IT
OR ATTEMPT TO MOVE IT. Instead, save your life by calling the power company.
Don’t attempt to erect antennas or towers on windy days.
MAKE SURE ALL TOWERS AND MASTS ARE SECURELY GROUNDED, AND
ELECTRICAL CABLES CONNECTED TO ANTENNAS HAVE LIGHTNING ARRESTORS.
This will help prevent fire damage or human injury in case of lightning, static build-up, or short
circuit within equipment connected to the antenna.
The base of the antenna mast or tower must be connected directly to the building protective
ground or to one or more approved grounding rods, using 1 OAWG ground wire and
corrosion-resistant connectors.
Refer to the National Electrical Code for grounding details.
Lightning arrestors for antenna feed coaxial cables are available from HyperLink
Technologies, Inc.
WARNING
If a person comes in contact with electrical power, and cannot move:
DON’T TOUCH THAT PERSON, OR YOU MAY BE ELECTROCUTED.
Use a non-conductive dry board, stick or rope to push or drag them so they no longer are in
contact with electrical power.
Once they are no longer contacting electrical power, administer CPR if you are certified, and
make sure that emergency medical aid has been requested.
Secure mast mounting bracket to mast as shown using 2 U-bolts and supplied hardware.
2
Remove antenna mounting bolt and washer from antenna base.
3
Insert antenna into mounting bracket and secure with washer and antenna mounting bolt. Do
not overtighten.
4
Any drain holes in the antenna base must be kept clear for proper operation.
Figure 14 Omnidirection antenna mounting
Connect antenna to transmitter
Using coaxial cable, connect the antenna base to the transmitter’s remote antenna connector (located at top
right as you face the transmitter display). A lightning arrestor may be required between the antenna and the
transmitter, using two cables up to 10m long each. Without lightning arrester, total cable length must not
exceed 10m (33 ft.). With lightning arrester total cable length must not exceed 20m (66 ft.). Antenna cable
shield shall be bonded to earth ground.
See page for cable types and connection information.
Risk of death or serious injury from explosion or fire.
Connection and disconnection of the batteries should be done only when the
area is non-hazardous.
ATTENTION
Both batteries must be the same model from the same manufacturer. Mixing
old and new batteries or different manufacturers is not permitted.
Use only the following 3.6V lithium thionyl chloride (Li-SOCl2) batteries (nonrechargeable), size D. No other batteries are approved for use in XYR 6000
Wireless Transmitters.
After power up, the transmitter does a brief self-test of the LCD display. Then it proceeds to Power-On
Message, which is the model name of the transmitter. The name is displayed for 2 seconds after which the
transmitter displays the process variables and associated status.
Authentication
Before the transmitter can be configured it must be unlocked with a security key so it can join the network.
Use the Authentication Device Pocket PC software to receive security keys from the Key Server manager,
then aim the Pocket PC at the transmitter and transmit a key.
6. CSA Certified DIVISION 2 / ZONE 2 Installation Drawings
Use the following drawings and accompanying notes and text for hazardous locations. For non-hazardous
locations you can use the same drawings without the accompanying notes and text.
