Installation and Mounting
Mechanical Installation:
Process connection: Threaded connections as specified (G1/2, NPT, etc.)
Recommended torque: 15–25 N·m for G1/2 connections
Seal with PTFE tape or appropriate thread sealant
Do not apply torque to the housing body — use the hex nut flat on the process connection
Orientation guidelines:
For liquid media: Slightly tilt the transmitter downward to prevent air pockets
For gas media: Slightly tilt upward to prevent liquid accumulation
For steam applications: Install a condensate pot to protect the diaphragm from direct high-temperature exposure
Electrical Installation:
Supply voltage: 10–30 VDC (24 VDC recommended)
Two-wire 4-20 mA loop connection
Use shielded twisted pair cable with single-ended grounding
Observe correct polarity at terminal connections
Detailed installation procedures are provided in the Endress+Hauser operating instructions (BA01271P).
