Chapter 2. Installation

2.3 Unpacking

The Sentinel LCT4 will typically be packaged in a wooden crate, the size of which will depend on the size of product
ordered. There Sentinel LCT4 will be secured by several 2x4 wood blocks to prevent shifting during transit. Simply
remove these 2x4 braces to unpack the system. For local mount systems the transmitter will be installed directly on top
of the pressure vessel. For remote mount systems the transmitter and remote cable may ship in a separate parcel.

2.4 Inspection

Prior to installation, inspect all materials to be used in the installation:
•
Gaskets - check for cracks, tears and over compression
•
Nuts and Bolts - check for damaged threads and for debris
•
RF Flange Faces - check for damage to serrations that may cause gaskets to not properly seal.
•
Flow Conditioners - check for blockages or damage to the conditioner
In general, check for anything that may prevent safe operation of the equipment.
WARNING! If pipes are shipped pre-assembled as a single section, care should be taken to inspect
and check the bolts and gaskets.
