Access Requirements

Cover Installation

When choosing an installation location and position, take into account
the need for access to the transmitter.
Process Flange Orientation
Mount the process flanges with sufficient clearance for process
connections. For safety reasons, place the drain/vent valves so the
process fluid is directed away from technicians when the vents are
used. In addition, consider the possible need for a testing or calibration
input.
Housing Rotation
See "Housing Rotation" on page 2-13.
Terminal Side of Electronics Housing
Mount the transmitter so that the terminal side is accessible. A
0.75-inch (19 mm) clearance is required for cover removal. Install the
provided conduit plug on the unused side of the conduit opening.
Circuit Side of Electronics Housing
Provide 3 inches (76.2 mm) clearance for cover removal. Three inches of
clearance is required for cover removal if a meter is installed.
Always install the electronics housing covers metal-to-metal to ensure a
proper seal.
