Adjustable wrench or torque wrench
Pipe sealant (approved for process media)
Mounting hardware (brackets, bolts, etc.)
Electrical tools (wire strippers, crimping tools)
HART communicator or AMS Trex device (for configuration)
Manufacturer's datasheet and installation manual
2.2 Site Requirements
Ambient Temperature: Ensure ambient conditions are within the transmitter's operating range (-40°C to +85°C / -40°F to +185°F).
Vibration: Avoid locations with excessive vibration (>2g peak). Use isolation mounts if necessary.
Orientation: Mount the transmitter vertically or horizontally per process requirements. Ensure the diaphragm is oriented correctly to avoid media buildup.
Accessibility: Provide adequate space for maintenance, calibration, and wiring.
3. Mechanical Installation
3.1 Mounting the Transmitter
Process Connection:
Use a 1/2" NPT, G 1/2", or M20 x 1.5 process connection as specified.
Apply pipe sealant to the male threads (avoid contaminating the diaphragm).
Hand-tighten the transmitter into the mounting boss, then torque to 15-20 ft-lb (20-27 N·m).
Direct Mounting:
For direct installation on process lines, ensure the transmitter is supported by a rigid structure to minimize stress on the diaphragm.
Remote Mounting(Optional):
Use capillary seals or remote-mounted diaphragms for high-temperature or corrosive media.
Ensure capillary lines are free from kinks and routed to avoid temperature gradients.
3.2 Pressure Port Configuration
High/Low Pressure Ports: Identify the high-pressure (HP) and low-pressure (LP) ports for differential pressure (DP) applications. Label ports if necessary.
Isolation Valves: Install block-and-bleed valves to isolate the transmitter during maintenance.

Shielded twisted-pair cable (18-22 AWG) for analog signals.
Maximum cable length: 1,500 m (4,920 ft) for HART communication.
Grounding: Connect the transmitter case to a reliable earth ground using the designated grounding terminal.
4.2 Terminal Connections
Remove the transmitter cover by loosening the captive screw.
Connect wires to the terminal block as follows:
Terminal 1 (+): Positive power supply
Terminal 2 (-): Negative power supply/4-20 mA output
For HART communication, connect the HART device in parallel with the power supply.
4.3 Intrinsic Safety (IS) Installations
