Troubleshooting
Installation
Use the following procedure to install a temperature sensor. Refer to Figure 7-16.
1. Slide the thermocouple bolt (1) over the thermocouple (TC).
2. Place the 2 part ferrule (2) over the end tip of the thermocouple (TC).
3. Insert the thermocouple in to the thermowell hole (TW) on the bottom side of the
meter body.
Important!
Carefully push the thermocouple in to the thermowell completely. This is critical to get the
proper insertion depth.
4. Thread the thermocouple bolt into the hole.
5. When the thermocouple bolt is hand tight, mark the position of the bolt in relation
to the meter body (The mark will help determine rotations).
6. Using a
1
/2-in. wrench, turn the bolt clockwise
3
/4 turn to seat the ferrule.
Note
After completing the above step, the ferrule and thermocouple bolt will be permanently
installed on the thermocouple.
7. Verify the rubber O-ring is installed on the electronics connection end of the
thermocouple.
8. Verify the 2.5mm hex head screw is installed.
9. Insert the electronics end connector into the transmitter housing.
10. Tighten the screw with a 2.5mm hex bit to secure the connection.
Important!
Do not over tighten hex screw.
7.5.10 Troubleshooting a remote mount cable
Troubleshooting a remote mount transmitter and meter body is very similar to trouble-
shooting an integral mount flowmeter, with the exception of the remote mount cable. The
transmitter, meter body, and sensor evaluation are exactly the same as described in earlier
sections.
Here are some common things to look for with the remote cable:
Physical damage to the cable
Visually inspect the cable for obvious damage. Cuts, abrasions, loose or broken
connectors are common with cables that have been installed in the field.
Electrical fault(s) with the cable
