PART 1 - MONITOR INSTALLATION
After unpacking, save the shipping carton and packing materials in case the
instrument is stored or re-shipped. Inspect the equipment and carton for damage. If
there is evidence of shipping damage, notify the carrier immediately.
Mount the enclosure in an area that is convenient for servicing, calibration, and
observation of the LCD readout.
1. Locate the monitor within the length of transducer cables supplied. If this is
not possible, it is recommended that the cable be exchanged for one that is of
proper length. If additional cable is added, utilize RG59 75 Ω coaxial cable and
BNC connections. Transducer cables that are up to 990 feet (300 meters) can be
accommodated.
2. Mount the monitor in a location:
• Where little vibration exists.
• That is protected from corrosive fluids.
• That is within the monitor's ambient temperature limits -40 to +185°F
(-40 to +85°C).
• That is out of direct sunlight. Direct sunlight may increase monitor
temperature to above the maximum limit.
3. Mounting - Refer to Figure 1.2 for enclosure and mounting dimension details.
Ensure that enough room is available to allow for door swing, maintenance and
conduit entrances. Secure the enclosure to a flat surface with two appropriate
fasteners.

4. Conduit Holes - Conduit holes should be used where cables enter the enclosure.
Holes not used for cable entry should be sealed with plugs.
Note: Use NEMA 4 [IP-65] rated fittings/plugs to maintain the watertight integrity of the
enclosure. Generally, the right conduit hole (viewed from front) is used for power, the left conduit
hole for transducer connections, and the center hole is utilized for I/O wiring.

Transducer Connections
To access terminal strips for wiring, loosen the two screws in the enclosure door and
open.
Guide the transducer terminations through the monitor conduit hole located in the
bottom-left of the enclosure. Secure the transducer cable with the supplied conduit
nut (if flexible conduit was ordered with the transducer).
The terminals within the unit are of a screw-down barrier terminal type. Connect
the appropriate wires at the corresponding screw terminals in the monitor. Observe
upstream and downstream (+/–) orientation. See Figure 1.3.

To Transducers
Figure 1.3 - Transducer Connections.
Note: The transducer cable carries low level, high frequency signals. Do not add length to the cable
supplied with the transducers. If additional cable is required, contact the manufacturer to arrange
an exchange for a transducer with the appropriate length of cable. Cables to 990 feet (300 meters)
are available. If adding cable, ensure that it is RG59 75 Ω compatible and uses BNC terminations.
Connect power to the screw terminal block in the monitor. See Figure 1.4 and Figure
1.5. Utilize the conduit hole on the right side of the enclosure for this purpose. Use
wiring practices that conform to local and national codes (e.g., The National Electrical
Code® Handbook in the U.S.).
2.1"
• HAZARD OF IMPROPER OR UNSAFE OPERATION
• This instrument requires clean electrical line power. Do not operate this unit on
circuits with noisy components (e.g., fluorescent lights, relays, compressors, or
variable frequency drives).
• Do not use with high current step-down transformers from high voltage sources.
• Do not run signal wires with line power in the same wiring tray or conduit.
Any other wiring method may be unsafe or cause improper operation of the
instrument.
