2.0 INSTALLATION
2.1 General Instructions
2.1.1 Specific instructions for each type of probe are given in the following pages.
Common to all probes are the following instructions:
a) If the distance between the probe and the instrument is such that a direct
connection is not possible, the probe cable should be routed to a junction box
with a terminal strip (PHE-600-JB). The box should be well sealed and away
from corrosion danger. Be sure that you have sufficient slack cable to allow for
probe removal for calibration and servicing.
b) Route the interconnect cable from the junction box to the instrument, preferably
in metal conduit. Do not run the power cable or control cables in the same
conduit with the probe interconnect cable.
c) Remove the protective plastic caps from the end of the probe before placing in
service.
d) For best results probes should always be mounted vertically with electrodes
down. If this is not possible, the probe must be at least 15° above horizontal.
2.2 Submersion Mounting PHE-600/ORE-600 Differential Probes
Refer to Dwg# N105-122
2.2.1 a) Apply a thread sealant to the thread on the cable end of the probe and screw a
1-1/2” x 1” NPT reducer onto the probe. Route the sensor cable through an
appropriate length of 1” pipe and using thread sealant, screw the pipe into the
reducer. The cable end of the probe should not be exposed to the process. A
cable strain relief fitting should be used on the upper end of the pipe.
NOTE: An optional protective shroud, Part No. PHE-600-EP should be used on the
electrode end of the probe to protect the electrodes from accidental contact
with the tank bottom, sides or objects in the process.
