Verify that the operating environment of the sensor and transmitter is consistent with the appropriate FM, CSA, ATEX, or IECEx approval. Do not connect a Rosemount 8712 to a non-Rosemount sensor that is located in an explosive atmosphere. WARNING The sensor liner is vulnerable to handling damage.
Remote mounted transmitters may be installed in the control room to protect the electronics from the harsh environment and provide easy access for configuration or service. Remotely mounted Rosemount 8712 transmitters require external power so there must be access to a suitable power source.

3 and 9 o’clock positions, as shown on the right of Figure 4. The electrodes in the Rosemount 8711 are properly orientated when the top of the sensor is either vertical or horizontal, as shown in Figure 5. Avoid any mounting orientation that positions the top of the sensor at 45°...
Quick Installation Guide 00825-0100-4664, Rev BB Rosemount 8712 / 8700 Series January 2013 4: I NSTALLATION Flanged Sensors Gaskets The sensor requires a gasket at each of its connections to adjacent devices or piping. The gasket material selected must be compatible with the process fluid and operating conditions. Metallic or spiral-wound gaskets can damage the liner.

O-ring Alignment 1. On 1.5 through 8-inch (40 through 200 mm) line sizes. Rosemount strongly recommends installing the alignment spacers provided to insure proper centering of the wafer sensor between the process flanges. Sensor sizes of 0.15, 0.30, 0.5 and 1 in. (4 through 25 mm), do not require alignment spacers.
