The I/O connections consist of two channels, each channel being 2-wire. Power must be
supplied to Channel A for the transmitter to operate, while Channel B connections are
optional.

The transmitter is installed remotely from the sensor. The 9-wire connection between the
sensor and transmitter must be field wired. Power supply and I/O must be field wired to
the transmitter. The sensor connection is in the junction box.
1.5 Installation checklist
□ Safety messages are provided throughout this content to protect personnel and
equipment. Read each safety message carefully before proceeding to the next step.
□ When choosing a location for components, refer to the following guidelines:
— See the sensor installation manual for information on locating the sensor with
remote-mount or extended-mount electronics.
— Do not install a component in a location where its temperature, humidity, or
vibration limits will be exceeded.
Installation Manual 7

April 2022 MMI-20058013
— Maximum distance between components depends on the wire size, the wire type,
and the power supply. Ensure that sufficient power is supplied to the transmitter
terminals.
Installation Manual
□ If you plan to mount the transmitter in a hazardous area:
— Verify that the transmitter has the appropriate hazardous area approval. Each
transmitter has a hazardous area approval tag attached to the transmitter housing.
— Ensure that any cable used between the transmitter and the sensor meets the
hazardous area requirements.
— For ATEX/IECEx installations, you must strictly adhere to the safety instructions
documented in the ATEX/IECEx approvals documentation available on the product
documentation DVD shipped with the product or at www.emerson.com/
flowmeasurement.
□ Verify that you have the appropriate cable and required cable installation parts for your
installation. For wiring between the transmitter and sensor, verify the maximum cable
length does not exceed 60 ft (20 m).
□ The transmitter can be mounted in any orientation as long as the conduit openings do
not point upward.
CAUTION
Installing the transmitter with the conduit openings or transmitter display facing
upward risks condensation moisture entering the transmitter housing, which could
damage the transmitter.
□ 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.
□ Minimize the amount of moisture or condensation inside the transmitter housing.
Moisture inside the transmitter housing can damage the transmitter and cause
measurement error or flowmeter failure. To do this:
— Ensure the integrity of all gaskets and O-rings
— Install drip legs on conduit or cable
— Seal unused conduit openings
— Ensure that all covers are fully tightened
□ Mount the meter in a location and orientation that satisfies the following conditions:
— Allows sufficient clearance to open the transmitter housing cover. Install with 8–10
inches (200–250 mm) clearance at the wiring access points.
— Provides clear access for installing cabling to the transmitter.
— Provides clear access to all wiring terminals for troubleshooting.

2 Mounting and sensor wiring
2.1 Mounting and sensor wiring for integralmount transmitters
There are no separate mounting requirements for integral transmitters, and no need to
connect wiring between the transmitter and the sensor.
2.2 Mount the transmitter to a wall or instrument pole
There are two options available for mounting the transmitter:
• Mount the transmitter to a wall or flat surface.
• Mount the transmitter to an instrument pole.
Prerequisites
• If you are mounting the transmitter to a wall or flat surface:
— Ensure that the surface is flat and rigid, does not vibrate, or move excessively.
— Confirm that you have the necessary tools, and the mounting kit shipped with the
transmitter.
• If you are mounting the transmitter to an instrument pole:
— Ensure that the instrument pole extends at least 12 in (305 mm) from a rigid base,
and is no more than 2 in (51 mm) in diameter.
— Confirm that you have the necessary tools, and the instrument-pole mounting kit
shipped with the transmitter.
Procedure
1. Attach the mounting bracket to the transmitter and tighten the screws.
