Chapter 2
Installing the Transmitter
2.1
Overview
This chapter describes how to install Micro Motion Model 1700 and 2700 transmitters. The following
general steps are required:
•
Determine the location of the transmitter and other flowmeter components (see Section 2.3)
•
Mount the transmitter (see Section 2.4)
•
Mount the core processor, if required (see Section 2.5)
•
Ground the flowmeter components (see Section 2.6)
•
Supply power to the flowmeter (see Section 2.7)
•
Rotate the display, if desired and the transmitter has a display (see Section 2.8)
2.2
Installation architecture
Your flowmeter installation will match one of the architectures shown in Figure 2-1. Mounting, sensor
wiring, and grounding requirements depend on this architecture. Your installation type should be
consistent with the installation type specified in your transmitter model number (see Section 1.4).
