Page 10: Determining A Location
Determining a Location Step 1 Determining a Location Choose a location for the sensor based on the requirements described in this section. The following general guidelines can help you select an appropriate location for the sensor. Full flow tubes For optimal performance, the sensor tubes should remain full of process fluid. Hazardous area installations Make sure the hazardous area specified on the sensor approval tag is suitable for the environment in which the sensor is installed (see Figures 1–5). - Page 11 Determining a Location Figure 6 F-Series sensor ambient and process temperature limits (all models except high-temperature and extreme high-temperature models) Mount electronics remotely; use junction box 176 (80) 158 (70) 140 (60) 104 (40) 91 (33) 68 (20) 32 (0) –4 (–20) –40 (–40) –76 (–60)

Page 14: Orienting The Sensor
Orienting the Sensor Step 2 Orienting the Sensor The sensor will function properly in any orientation if the sensor tubes remain filled with process fluid. Micro Motion recommends orienting F-Series sensors as shown in Figure 8. Figure 8 Recommended sensor orientations Slurries and Gases Liquids... -
Page 15: Mounting The Sensor
Mounting the Sensor Step 3 Mounting the Sensor Use your common practices to minimize torque and bending load on process connections. Figure 9 illustrates how to mount the sensor. To reduce the risk of condensation or excessive moisture, the conduit opening should not point upward (if possible). - Page 16 Mounting the Sensor Mounting the electronics of high-temperature and extreme high-temperature sensors High-temperature and extreme high-temperature F-Series sensors come with a 32″ (812 mm) pre-installed flexible conduit. This conduit is required for agency approval. A factory-supplied Model 1700/2700 transmitter, core processor, or junction box is connected to the end of the flexible conduit.

Wiring Step 4 Wiring Improperly sealed housings can expose electronics to moisture, which can cause measurement error or flowmeter failure. Inspect and grease all gaskets and O-rings. Fully close and tighten all housing covers and conduit openings. Installation options The sensor has one of the following electronics configurations: •... - Page 18 Wiring Figure 11 Micro Motion cable gland and heat shrink 4 1/2 in (114 mm) 3/4 in (19 mm) Gland clamping Gland nut insert 7/8 in (22 mm) 7/8 in (22 mm) Gland body Shielded heat shrink 4.

Page 21: Grounding
Grounding Step 5 Grounding The sensor can be grounded via the piping if the joints in the pipeline are ground-bonded. If the sensor is not grounded via the piping, connect a ground wire to the internal or external grounding screw, which is located on the core processor housing or junction box. -
Page 22: Purge Fittings
Purge Fittings Purge Fittings If the sensor has purge fittings, they should remain sealed at all times. After a purge plug has been removed, the sensor case should be purged with argon or nitrogen and resealed. Purging the case protects internal components. The sensor is purged of all oxygen and sealed at the factory. If the purge plugs are never removed, it is not necessary to purge or re-seal the sensor. - Page 23 Purge Fittings Table 4 Time required to purge F-Series sensor cases Purge rate Time Sensor model /hr (l/hr) minutes F025 20 (566) 4 1/2 F050 20 (566) 4 1/2 F100 20 (566) F200 20 (566) F300 20 (566) (1) If purge lines are being used, increase purge time to fill the additional volume. 8.
