OTE:N Use suitably certied fittings/plugs to maintain the watertight integrity of the enclosure. Generally, the right conduit
hole (viewed from front) is used for power, the left conduit hole for transducer connections, and the center holes are
used for I/O wiring.

Installing a Meter with a Remote Transmitter and Adjustable Transducers
• Locate the transmitter within the length of the transducer cables supplied or exchange the cable for one of proper length.
• Install the transducers after entering the pipe settings into the transmitter and determining the spacing and
mounting method.
• See Figure 2 on page 6 for enclosure and mounting dimension details. Allow enough room for door swing, maintenance
and conduit entrances.

transmitter. From inside the enclosure, remove the 4 screws holding the bracket. Rotate the bracket and replace the
screws. See Figure 15.
