2.3.2 Locating the Transmitter
Ensure sufficient clearance between the transmitter and tank top mounted fittings,
obstructions or manway. Provide at least 6” of clearance around the transmitter. Consider
the installation location for clearance of the large 1 ¾” wrench required to install the
probe and transmitter. These components must be sufficiently tightened for safe and
reliable operation.
