1 Planning

This installation manual explains basic installation guidelines for installing the Micro Motion
Model 3300 or Model 3500 MVD applications platform.

For information on I.S. applications, refer to Micro Motion approval documentation.
For complete instructions about configuration, maintenance, and service, refer to the

instruction manual shipped with the transmitter.

WARNING!

Improper installation in a hazardous area can cause an explosion.

For information about hazardous applications, refer to the appropriate Micro Motion approval
documentation, shipped with the meter or available from the Micro Motion web site.

WARNING!

Hazardous voltage can cause severe injury or death.

Install transmitter and complete all wiring before supplying power.

CAUTION!

Improper installation can cause measurement error or meter failure. Follow all instructions.

Planning

1.1 Installation kit

The installation kit includes a bezel, frame, two mounting brackets with screws, a power
supply wiring connector, and a retaining clip assembly for power supply wiring. See Figure

1-1).

The applications platform fits through a 5 7/16-inch (138 mm) square cutout in a panel
that is 5/64 inch (2 mm) to 1/2 inch (13 mm) thick. The bezel provides a IP65 watertight
seal between the panel cutout and the applications platform housing. See Figure 1-1.

In addition, the installation kit includes either:

• A bracketed wiring connector for screw-type connectors. See Figure 3-2.

• I/O cables and connectors. See Figure 3-3.

Planning

Refer to Figure 1-6 and follow these steps:

1. Insert the Model 3300 or Model 3500 through the cutout.

2. Slide the frame over the housing.

3. Insert the posts on the brackets into the rails on the housing.

4. Tighten the screws evenly to 10 to 14 inch-pounds (1,13 to 1,38 Nm) to ensure a

watertight seal between the gasket and the panel.
