3.5.1
Cable gland
If you are using cable gland instead of conduit, follow the cable gland manufacturer's
instructions for preparation and make the connections in a conventional manner in accordance
with local or plant electrical codes. Be sure to properly seal unused ports to prevent moisture or
other contamination from entering the terminal block compartment of the electronics housing.
3.5.2
Gaskets
The flowmeter requires gaskets supplied by the user. Be sure to select gasket material that is
compatible with the process fluid and pressure ratings of the specific installation.
Note
Ensure the inside diameter of the gasket is larger than the inside diameter of the flowmeter
and adjacent piping. If gasket material extends into the flow stream, it will disturb the flow
and cause inaccurate measurements.
3.5.3
Meter body grounding
Typically the meter body will be earth grounded once it is installed in the pipe. However, the
meter body does have a ground lug bolt that can be used for attaching a grounding strap.
Attach one end of the grounding strap to the grounding bolt and the other end to a suitable
earth ground.
