When installing, operating, and maintaining McCrometer equipment where hazards may be present, you must protect yourself by wearing Personal Protective Equipment (PPE) and be trained to enter confined spaces. Examples of confined spaces are manholes, pumping stations, pipelines, pits, septic tanks, sewage digesters, vaults, degreasers, storage tanks, boilers, and furnaces.
Factory for any circumstances encountered which are not covered in this manual. All McCrometer products are tested and inspected during manufacture and prior to shipping. An inspection should be performed at the time of unpacking to detect any damage that might have occurred during shipment. WARNING! Incorrect installation or removal of meters can result in serious injury or death .
Preparing for a New Installation 3 .2 Sensor Location Adjoining pipe must be adequately supported, and the area around the sensor should provide sufficient drainage to prevent flooding the converter or conduits. The location chosen should provide room to read the display and be free from harsh electrical noise from adjacent equipment, cables, RFI, or EMI.
The McMag 2000 is a saddle type meter. It may be installed The McMag2000 generally does not require directly onto an existing pipe. Follow these steps for a new NOTE grounding, particularly when the piping itself flow meter installation.
Installation instructions can be found in a separate 2000 document, 30125-39, Flow Straightener Installation, which can be found on the McCrometer Web site. After installation, the converter must be configured for use with one of three types of flow straighteners. See section 9.0 for configuration. 4 .4...

Quick Connect Cabled Ends (Optional) IMPORTANT Connections to the sensor must be made with cable supplied by McCrometer specifically for that purpose. Do not substitute the supplied cable with other types of cable, even for short runs. For repairs or added lengths of cable, the entire cable between the sensor and the converter must be replaced.
EXTERNAL WIRE CONNECTION 6 .3 Power Options Depending on output options and specific application position, you may choose to add additional power options to the battery powered converter. Additionally, you have the option of connecting external power of 10-32VDC or 100-240VAC. 6 .4 DC Power Cable (Optional) The cable contains wiring for both the optional 10-32VDC power to the meter, and the 4-20mA output from the meter.
