1. Although the transmitter is suitable for outdoor use, installation is direct sunlight or in areas
of extreme temperatures is not recommended unless a sunshield is used.
2. Install the transmitter in an area where vibration and electromagnetic and radio frequency
interference are minimized or absent.
3. Keep the transmitter and sensor wiring at least one foot from high voltage conductors. Be sure
there is easy access to the transmitter.
4. The transmitter is suitable for panel, pipe, or surface mounting.
5. The transmitter case has six 1/2-inch (PG13.5) conduit openings. Use separate conduit
openings for the power/output cable, the sensor cable, and the other the sensor cable as
needed (pH input for free chlorine with continuous pH correction).
