Installing the transmitter in the remote mount design
When selecting a location for the transmitter, consider the
following points:
• Observe the information concerning maximum ambient
temperature and IP rating on the name plate
• The location must be mostly free from vibration.
• The location must not be exposed to direct sunlight. If
necessary provide a sun screen on site.
• Do not up-scale the maximum signal cable length
between the transmitter and the sensor.
1. Drill mounting holes at mounting location.
2. Attach transmitter securely to the mounting location
using suited fasteners for the base material.

case of a ½ in NPT, there is a plug instead of a cable gland.
