Before You Begin

1.3.1 Site Preparation

Each Genesis unit is built to match the physical specifica-
tions of the required installation. Ensure that the probe
process connection is correct for the flanged or threaded
mounting on the vessel where the probe will be placed. See
Mounting, Section 1.4.
Ensure that all local, state, and federal regulations and
guidelines are observed. See Wiring, Section 1.4.2.

1.3.2 Equipment and Tools

No special equipment or tools are required to install the
Genesis. The following items are recommended:
• Open-end wrenches (or adjustable wrench) to fit the process
connection flange bolts.
• Flat-blade screwdrivers (small and medium sized)
• Digital multimeter

Mounting

All Genesis probes are mounted on to a tank using flanged
or threaded process connections. For information about the
sizes and types of connections available, see Probe Model
Number, Section 2.7.2.
NOTE: Do not place insulating material around any part of the Genesis
probe electronics itself, as this may cause excessive heat
buildup.
Ensure that all mounting connections are properly in place
on the tank before installing the probe.
Compare the nameplate on the probe and main electronics
with the product information to confirm that the Genesis
probe is correct for the intended installation.
