3. Screw the probe connector into the thermowell.
IMPORTANT NOTE: Do not wrap the RTD cable around the pipeline.
Run the RTD cable along the side of the process stream pipeline in a
straight line. Use nylon tie wraps to secure the cable to the pipeline.
4. Install the RTD cable into the flow computer enclosure:
a. Remove the shipping plug from the right side of the flow
computer enclosure.
b. Remove the cable nut from the gland and insert the RTD cable
end through the access hole in the enclosure. Leave enough
cable inside the enclosure to accommodate wiring to the RTD
terminal block (J7).
c. Replace the cable nut on the cord and screw the cable nut onto
the cable gland inside the enclosure.
d. Tighten the cord sealing nut to the cable gland against the RTD
cable.
e. Secure the cable outside of the gland so that the cable turns
down immediately. This will keep moisture from seeping into
the housing along the RTD cable.
