• Micro Motion recommends the use of 5/16-18 (8 mm–1.25) fasteners that can
withstand the process environment. Micro Motion does not supply bolts or nuts as
part of the standard offering (general purpose bolts and nuts are available as an
option).
• Ensure that the surface is flat and rigid, does not vibrate, or move excessively.
• Confirm that you have the necessary tools, and the mounting kit shipped with the
transmitter.
For mounting the remote core processor to an instrument pole:
• Use two 5/16-inch U-bolts for 2-inch pipe, and four matching nuts, that can
withstand the process environment. Micro Motion does not supply U-bolts or nuts
(appropriate bolts and nuts are available as an option).
• Ensure the instrument pole extends at least 12 inches (305 mm) from a rigid base,
and is no more than 2 inches (50.8 mm) in diameter.
