Emerson designs, manufactures and tests its products to meet many national and international stan-
dards. Because these sensors are sophisticated technical products, you MUST properly install, use,
nd maintain them to ensure they continue to operate within their normal specifications. The
a
following instructions MUST be adhered to and integrated into your safety program when installing,
using, and maintaining Rosemount products. Failure to follow the proper instructions may cause
any one of the following situations to occur: loss of life; personal injury; property damage; damage
to this sensor; and warranty invalidation.
•Read all instructions prior to installing, operating, and servicing the product.
• If you do not understand any of the instructions, contact your Emerson representative for
clarification.
• Follow all warnings, cautions, and instructions marked on and supplied with the product.
• Inform and educate your personnel in the proper installation, operation, and maintenance
of the product.
•Install your equipment as specified in the Installation Instructions of the appropriate
Instruction Manual and per applicable local and national codes. Connect all products to
the proper electrical and pressure sources.
• To ensure proper performance, use qualified personnel to install, operate, update,
program, and maintain the product.
• When replacement parts are required, ensure that qualified people use replacement parts
specified by Emerson. Unauthorized parts and procedures can affect the product's
performance, place the safe operation of your process at risk, and VOID YOUR WARRANTY.
Third-party substitutions may result in fire, electrical hazards, or improper operation.
• Ensure that all equipment doors are closed and protective covers are in place, except when
maintenance is being performed by qualified persons, to prevent electrical shock and
personal injury.

CAUTION
Sensor/Process Application Compatibility
The wetted sensor materials may not be compatible with process composition and operating
conditions. Application compatibility is entirely the responsibility of the user.
CAUTION
Before removing the sensor, be absolutely certain the process pressure is reduced to 0 psig and the
process temperature is at safe level.

Section 2: Installation
2.1Unpacking and Inspection
Inspect the outside of the carton for any damage. If damage is detected, contact the carrier
immediately. Inspect the instrument and hardware. Make sure all items in the packing list are
present and in good condition. Notify the factory if any part is missing.
2.2Sensor Installation
Keep 1/4 in. (6 mm) clearance between electrodes and piping. The electrodes must be completely
submerged in the process liquid, i.e., to the level of the threaded connection. See Figure 2-1 for
recommended orientation.
If the sensor is installed in a side stream with the sample draining to open atmosphere, bubbles
may accumulate on the electrodes. Trapped bubbles will cause errors. As bubbles accumulate, the
conductivity reading drops. To control bubble formation, apply a small amount of back pressure to
the drain.
