2.1 Safety messages
Instructions and procedures in this section may require special precautions to ensure the safety
of the personnel performing the operations. Refer to the following safety messages before
performing any operation in this section.
2.2 Receiving and inspection
Flowmeters are available in different models and with different options, so it is important to
inspect and verify that the appropriate model was delivered before installation.
Upon receipt of the shipment, check the packing list against the material received and the
purchase order. All items are tagged with a sales order number, serial number, and customer tag
number. Report any damage to the carrier.
If pipe/duct wall is less than 0.125-in. (3.2mm) use extreme caution when installing sensor.
Thin walls can deform during welding, installation, or from the weight of a cantilevered
flowmeter. These installations may require a fabricated outlet, saddle, or external
flowmeter support. Consult factory for assistance.
Explosions could result in death or serious injury.
 Do not remove the transmitter cover in explosive atmospheres when the circuit is live.
 Before connecting a Field Communicator in an explosive atmosphere, make sure the
instruments in the loop are installed in accordance with intrinsically safe or
non-incendive field wiring practices.
 Verify the operating atmosphere of the transmitter is consistent with the appropriate
hazardous locations certifications.
 Both transmitter covers must be fully engaged to meet explosion-proof requirements.
Failure to follow these installation guidelines could result in death or serious injury.
 Make sure only qualified personnel perform the installation.
