•Installation checklist
•Best practices
•Temperature limits
1.1 Installation checklist
□Make sure that the hazardous area specified on the approval tag is suitable for the
environment in which the meter will be installed.
□Verify that the local ambient and process temperatures are within the limits of the
meter.
□If your sensor has an integral transmitter, no wiring is required between the sensor
and transmitter. Follow the wiring instructions in the transmitter installation manual
for signal and power wiring.
□If your transmitter has remote-mounted electronics, follow the instructions in this
manual for wiring between the sensor and the transmitter, and then follow the
instructions in the transmitter installation manual for power and signal wiring.

□The sensor will work in any orientation as long as the flow tubes remain full of
process fluid.

Installation Manual 1

□The sensor has a pressure relief feature to evacuate the case in the unlikely event of
a loss of primary containment:
-The pressure relief feature is located underneath the calibration tag.
-Orient the sensor so that personnel and equipment will not be exposed to
escaping pressurized discharge along the pressure relief path.
Pressure relief featureFigure 1-1:

A
A. Pressure relief path
B. Calibration tag
CAUTION!
Failure to properly orient the sensor could result in exposure to pressurized
discharge. Orient the sensor in a way that will not expose personnel and equipment
to the pressure relief path.
-If the pressure relief feature is activated by a loss of primary containment, the
calibration tag will release from the case.
□Install the meter so that the flow direction arrow on the sensor case matches the
actual forward flow of the process. (Flow direction is also software-selectable.)
1.2 Best practices
The following information can help you get the most from your sensor.
•There are no pipe run requirements for Micro Motion sensors. Straight runs of pipe
upstream or downstream are unnecessary.
•If the sensor is installed in a vertical pipeline, liquids and slurries should flow upward
through the sensor. Gases should flow downward.
•Keep the sensor tubes full of process fluid.
•For halting flow through the sensor with a single valve, install the valve downstream
from the sensor.
•Minimize bending and torsional stress on the meter. Do not use the meter to align
misaligned piping.
•The sensor does not require external supports. The flanges will support the sensor in
any orientation.

1.3 Temperature limits
Sensors can be used in the process and ambient temperature ranges shown in the
temperature limit graphs. For the purposes of selecting electronics options, temperature
limit graphs should be used only as a general guide. If your process conditions are close to
the gray area, consult with your Micro Motion representative.
The environmental limits of the sensor are as follows:
•Process fluid: –40 to +257 °F (–40 to +125 °C)
•Ambient temperature: –40 to +140 °F (–40 to +60 °C)
Notes
•In all cases, the electronics cannot be operated where the ambient temperature is below –40
°F (–40 °C) or above +140 °F (+60 °C). If a sensor is to be used where the ambient temperature
is outside of the range permissible for the electronics, the electronics must be remotely
located where the ambient temperature is within the permissible range, as indicated by the
shaded area of the temperature limit graphs.
•Temperature limits may be further restricted by hazardous area approvals. Refer to the
hazardous area approvals documentation shipped with the sensor or available from the Micro
Motion web site (www.micromotion.com).
•The extended-mount electronics option allows the sensor case to be insulated without
covering the , but does not affect temperature ratings. When insulating the sensor case at
elevated process temperatures (above 140 °F), please ensure electronics are not enclosed in
insulation as this may lead to electronics failure.

2 Mounting
2.1 Mount the sensor
Use your common practices to minimize torque and bending load on process connections.
Tip
To reduce the risk of condensation problems, do not orient transmitters or sensor junction boxes
with their conduit openings pointing upward.
CAUTION!
Do not lift the sensor by the electronics. Lifting the sensor by the electronics can damage the
device.
Mounting the sensorFigure 2-1:
Notes
•Do not use the sensor to support the piping.
•The sensor does not require external supports. The flanges will support the sensor in any
orientation.

3 Wiring
Topics covered in this chapter:
•Options for wiring
•Connect 4-wire cable
3.1 Options for wiring
The wiring procedure you follow depends on which electronics option you have.
Wiring procedures by electronics optionTable 3-1:
Electronics option Wiring procedure
Integral transmitter The transmitter is already connected to the sensor. No wiring is required
between sensor and transmitter. See the transmitter installation manual for
wiring the power and signal cable to the transmitter.
MVD™Direct Connect™There is no transmitter to wire. See the MVD Direct Connect manual for wiring
the power and signal cable between the sensor and the direct host.
Integral core processor with remote
transmitter
The core processor is already connected to the sensor. Connect a 4-wire cable
between the core processor and transmitter. Refer toSection 3.2.
CAUTION!
Make sure the hazardous area specified on the sensor approval tag is suitable for the
environment in which the sensor will be installed. Failure to comply with the requirements for
intrinsic safety in a hazardous area could result in an explosion.
CAUTION!
Fully close and tighten all housing covers and conduit openings. Improperly sealed housings
can expose electronics to moisture, which can cause measurement error or flowmeter failure.
Inspect and grease all gaskets and O-rings.
3.2 Connect 4-wire cable
3.2.1 4-wire cable types and usage
Micro Motion offers two types of 4-wire cable: shielded and armored. Both types contain
shield drain wires.
Wiring
Installation Manual 5

The 4-wire cable supplied by Micro Motion consists of one pair of red and black 18 AWG
(0.75 mm2) wires for the VDC connection, and one pair of white and green 22 AWG
(0.35 mm2) wires for the RS-485 connection.
User-supplied 4-wire cable must meet the following requirements:
•Twisted pair construction.
•Applicable hazardous area requirements, if the core processor is installed in a
hazardous area.
•Wire gauge appropriate for the cable length between the core processor and the
transmitter.
Wire gaugeTable 3-2:
Wire gauge Maximum cable length
VDC 22 AWG (0.35 mm2) 300 ft (90 m)
VDC 20 AWG (0.5 mm2) 500 ft (150 m)
VDC 18 AWG (0.8 mm2) 1000 ft (300 m)
RS-485 22 AWG (0.35 mm2) or larger 1000 ft (300 m)
3.2.2 Prepare the 4-wire cable
Important
For user-supplied cable glands, the gland must be capable of terminating the drain wires.
Note
If you are installing unshielded cable in continuous metallic conduit with 360º termination shielding,
you only need to prepare the cable – you do not need to perform the shielding procedure.

Installation Manual 9

4 Grounding
The meter must be grounded according to the standards that are applicable at the site.
The customer is responsible for knowing and complying with all applicable standards.
Prerequisites
Micro Motion suggests the following guides for grounding practices:
•In Europe, IEC 79-14 is applicable to most installations, in particular Sections
12.2.2.3 and 12.2.2.4.
•In the U.S.A. and Canada, ISA 12.06.01 Part 1 provides examples with associated
applications and requirements.
If no external standards are applicable, follow these guidelines to ground the sensor:
•Use copper wire, 14 AWG (2,0 mm2) or larger wire size.
•Keep all ground leads as short as possible, less than 1 Ω impedance.
•Connect ground leads directly to earth, or follow plant standards.
CAUTION!
Ground the flowmeter to earth, or follow ground network requirements for the facility.
Improper grounding can cause measurement error.
Procedure
Check the joints in the pipeline.
-If the joints in the pipeline are ground-bonded, the sensor is automatically grounded
and no further action is necessary (unless required by local code).
-If the joints in the pipeline are not grounded, connect a ground wire to the grounding
screw located on the sensor electronics.
Tip
The sensor electronics may be a transmitter, core processor, or junction box. The grounding
screw may be internal or external.
