Three ¾–14 NPT connections provided on the base of the transmitter;
screw terminals provided for all of the connections; power wiring
connected to the transmitter only; remote mounted transmitters
require only a single conduit connection to the flowtube; integrally
mounted transmitters are factory-wired to the flowtube
Cable Requirements for Remote-Mount Transmitters
Tran smitter I nput P ower
Remote transmitter installations require equal lengths of signal and
coil drive cables. Integrally mounted transmitters are factory-wired and
do not require interconnecting cables.
Lengths from 5 to 1,000 feet (1.5 to 300 meters) may be specified and
will be shipped with the flowtube. When ordering the combination
cable, the lengths specified must be from 5 to 500 feet
(1.5 to 150 meters).
Cable longer than 100 feet (30 meters) is not recommended for
high-signal systems.
