Installing the transmitter
Installing the docking station
— If the transmitter is to be installed in a Zone 2 explosion-hazard area, select a lo-
cation with low exposure to mechanical risk.
— Docking station is installed vertically (transmitter with sensor facing down) in an
area with low vibrations and stable temperatures – near the possible leak.
— A space of at least 15 cm (6") must be maintained above the transmitter for instal-
lation of the measuring unit.
— A space of at least 10 cm (4") – preferably 30 cm (12") – must be maintained be-
low the docking station to permit access for maintenance.
●
Unpack the docking station.
1
Remove raincover (protection against dust and splashing water).
2
Remove the 4-pole terminal block (Part No. 83 16 268), keep it in a safe place and
insert it again after completion of the installation work.
●
A drilling template is provided on page 51. The mounting holes are 66 ±4 mm (2.6
± 0.16") apart.
If the measuring unit is not to be mounted at this time:
●
refit the raincover (protection against dust and splashing water).
Attention:
Spacers (e.g. mounting bracket 68 09 772) must be used to prevent any
twisting of the housing when installed on uneven surfaces.
