  • Page 7: Gtx116 Transmitter Installation

    GTx116 TRANSMITTER INSTALLATION The GTx116 transmitter is designed for use in an environment between -20° F to 120° F (-28.8° C to 48.8° C) where it will not be exposed to rain or snow. The transmitter should be mounted upright in a field accessible location. The enclosure (Figure 4) is designed to accept 1/2 in.

    Figure 5. GTx116 Power Connections Multiple GTx116 transmitters wired to a single transformer must be wired “in-phase” (L1 to L1, L2 to L2). EBTRON, Inc. 1663 Hwy. 701 S., Loris SC 29569 • Toll Free: 800.2EBTRON (232.8766) • Fax: 843.756.1838 • Internet: EBTRON.com...

  • Page 9: Connecting Sensor Probes To The Transmitter

    After mounting the sensor probes and transmitter, connect one or more sensor probe cable plugs to the circular recep- tacles located at the bottom of the GTx116 transmitter enclosure. Probes are “Plug and Play” and do not have to be con- nected to a specific receptacle on the transmitter (unless traverse data is desired - see note below).
