2 Installation and start-up
Note
Because the Rosemount 700XA is available in different configurations, it is possible that
not all of the instructions in this section apply to your particular gas chromatograph (GC).
In most cases, however, to install and set up a Rosemount 700XA, Emerson recommends
that you follow the instructions in the same order as they are presented in this manual.
2.1 Installation considerations
Before installing the gas chromatograph (GC):
1.
WARNING
The GC is heavy and has a high potential of injuring personnel or damaging
equipment.
Anchor the GC solidly before making electrical connections. Several options for
mounting the GC are covered in Mounting arrangements.
2. Ensure that the connections to the enclosure meet local standards.
3. Use approved seals: either cable glands or conduit seals.
a. Install conduit seals within 3 in. (76.2 mm) of the enclosure.
b. Seal unused openings with approved blanks (plugs). Threads for these
openings are M32 x 1.5.
4. Remove any packing materials before powering up the GC.
5.
WARNING
Do not power up an open GC unless the surrounding area is certified non-
hazardous.
6.
