This document provides basic installation guidelines for the Rosemount

provide instructions for detailed configuration, diagnostics, maintenance, service,

troubleshooting, explosion-proof, flame-proof, or intrinsically safe (I.S.) installations. Refer to

the Rosemount 8732 reference manual (document number 00809-0100-4662) for more

instructions. The manual and this QIG are also available electronically on

www.rosemount.com.

Failure to follow these installation guidelines could result in death or serious injury:

Installation and servicing instructions are for use by qualified personnel only. Do not perform

any servicing other than that contained in the operating instructions, unless qualified. Verify

that the operating environment of the sensor and transmitter is consistent with the

appropriate FM, CSA, ATEX, or IECEx approval.

Do not connect a Rosemount 8732 to a non-Rosemount sensor that is located in an explosive

atmosphere.

The sensor liner is vulnerable to handling damage. Never place anything through the sensor

for the purpose of lifting or gaining leverage. Liner damage can render the sensor useless.

To avoid possible damage to the sensor liner ends, do not use metallic or spiral-wound

gaskets. If frequent removal is anticipated, take precautions to protect the liner ends. Short

spool pieces attached to the sensor ends are often used for protection.

Correct flange bolt tightening is crucial for proper sensor operation and life. All bolts must be

tightened in the proper sequence to the specified torque limits. Failure to observe these

instructions could result in severe damage to the sensor lining and possible sensor

replacement.

Rosemount 8705 Magnetic Flowtube units ordered with non-standard paint options may be

subject to electrostatic discharge.

To avoid electrostatic charge build-up, do not rub the meter body with a dry cloth or clean

with solvents.
