Additional Installation Instructions
B.2 Mounting tracks for Size A and B sensors
1. Use the Wizard setup procedure to program the transmitter for the sensors that were
selected.
2. After receiving the spacing number index from the transmitter, make a note of the number
displayed.
3. Check to ensure that you have a matched set of sensors. They both should have the
same serial number but marked with either an "A" or "B" (e.g. 100A and 100B).
Note
Some sensors require a right-angle adapter. This adapter should be installed before
placing the sensors in the tracks.
4. Prepare pipe for the track mounts by degreasing the surface, if needed, and removing
any grit, corrosion, rust, loose paint or surface irregularities with the abrasive pipe
conditioning material provided.
5. If this is a horizontal pipe, place the track rail assembly against the pipe. While holding
track, place second track on pipe directly underneath (180°) and hold together in place.
6. Wrap the mounting strap around the pipe and through the strap guide.
Note
For a vertical pipe installation, use a tie, tape or bungee cord to hold the two tracks in
place while mounting.
7. Finger-tighten the Tension Screw to secure the strap and tracks to the pipe.
