QUICKSTART OPERATING OVERVIEW
If you are familiar with installing TFX Ultra meters, follow these instructions to get the system up and running quickly. Refer to
the detailed instructions if you require additional information.
OTE:N The following steps require information supplied by the transmitter itself so it will be necessary to supply power to
the transmitter, at least temporarily, to obtain setup information.
Transducer Location
• In general, select a mounting location on the piping system with a minimum of ten pipe diameters
(10 × the pipe inside diameter) of straight pipe upstream and five straight diameters downstream.
See Table 1 on page16 for additional configurations.
• If the application requires DTTR, DTTN, DTTL or DTTH transducers, select a mounting method for the transducers based on
pipe size and liquid characteristics. See Table 2 on page17. The three transducer mounting configurations are shown in
Figure 2. See “Transducer Mounting Configurations” on page20 for mounting procedures.
• Avoid installations on downward flowing pipes or pipes that may become partially filled.
OTE:N All DTTS and DTTC transducers use V–Mount configuration.

Electrical Connections
Transducer/Power Connections
1. Route the transducer cables from the transducer mounting location back to the transmitter enclosure. Connect the
transducer wires to the terminal block in the transmitter enclosure.
2. Verify that power supply is correct for the transmitter’s power option.
a. Line voltage AC transmitters require 95…264V AC, 47…63 Hz @ 17 VA maximum.
b. Low voltage AC transmitters require 20…28V AC, 47…63 Hz @ 0.35 VA maximum.
c. DC transmitters require 10…28V DC @ 5 Watts maximum.
