Chapter 1. Installation
1.1 Introduction
To ensure safe and reliable operation of the Model XMT868i Flow Meter, the system must be installed in accordance
with the guidelines established by GE engineers. Those guidelines, explained in detail in this chapter, include the
following topics:
• Unpacking the Model XMT868i system
• Selecting suitable sites for the electronics enclosure and the flowcell/transducers
• Installing the flowcell/transducers
Note: See the appropriate Transducer Installation Guide for detailed instructions on transducer installation.
• Installing optional temperature transmitters
• Installing the electronics enclosure
• Wiring the electronics enclosure
1.2 Unpacking
Carefully remove the electronics enclosure, the transducers, and the cables from the shipping containers. Before
discarding any of the packing materials, account for all components and documentation listed on the packing slip. The
discarding of an important item along with the packing materials is all too common. If anything is missing or damaged,
contact the factory immediately for assistance.
WARNING! The Model XMT868i flow transmitter can measure the flow rate of many fluids, some
potentially hazardous. The importance of proper safety practices cannot be overemphasized.
WARNING! Be sure to follow all applicable local safety codes and regulations for installing
electrical equipment and working with hazardous fluids or flow conditions. Consult company
safety personnel or local safety authorities to verify the safety of any procedure or practice.
