1 About this guide
This Quick Start Guide provides basic guidelines for the Rosemount 2160.
Refer to the Rosemount 2160 Reference Manual for more instructions. The
manual and this guide are also available electronically at
Emerson.com/Rosemount.
1.1 Safety messages
WARNING
Failure to follow safe installation and servicing guidelines could result in
death or serious injury.
Ensure the level detector is installed by qualified personnel and in
accordance with applicable code of practice.
Use the level detector only as specified in this manual. Failure to do so may
impair the protection provided by the level detector.
The weight of a level detector with a heavy flange and extended fork length
may exceed 37 lb. (18 kg). A risk assessment is required before carrying,
lifting, and installing the level detector.
Repair, e.g. substitution of components, etc. may jeopardize safety and is
under no circumstances allowed.
WARNING
Explosions could result in death or serious injury.
Verify that the operating atmosphere of the level detector is consistent with
the appropriate hazardous locations certifications.
Before connecting a handheld communicator in an explosive atmosphere,
ensure that the instruments in the loop are installed in accordance with
intrinsically safe or non-incendive field wiring practices.
WARNING
Process leaks could result in death or serious injury.
Ensure the level detector is handled carefully. If the process seal is damaged,
gas might escape from the vessel (tank) or pipe.

WARNING
Physical access
Unauthorized personnel may potentially cause significant damage to and/or
misconfiguration of end users’ equipment. This could be intentional or
unintentional and needs to be protected against.
Physical security is an important part of any security program and
fundamental to protecting your system. Restrict physical access by
unauthorized personnel to protect end users’ assets. This is true for all
systems used within the facility.
CAUTION
Hot surfaces
The flange and process seal may be hot at high process temperatures. Allow
to cool before servicing.
NOTICE
Power module considerations.
Each power module contains primary lithium/thionyl chloride batteries.
Under normal conditions, the battery materials are self-contained and are
not reactive as long as the batteries and the pack integrity are maintained.
Care should be taken to prevent thermal, electrical or mechanical damage.
Contacts should be protected to prevent premature discharge.
Battery hazards remain when cells are discharged.
Use caution when handling the power module. The Power Module may be
damaged if dropped from heights in excess of 20 ft. (6 m).
Power modules should be stored in a clean and dry area. For maximum
battery life, storage temperature should not exceed 86 °F (30 °C).
The power module may be replaced in a hazardous area. The power module
has surface resistivity greater than one gigaohm and must be properly
installed in the wireless device enclosure. Care must be taken during
transportation to and from the point of installation to prevent electrostatic
charge build-up.

NOTICE
Shipping considerations for wireless products.
The unit was shipped to you without the power module installed. Remove
the power module prior to any re-shipping.
Each Black Power Module (model number 701PBKKF) contains two “C” size
primary lithium batteries. Primary lithium batteries (charged or discharged)
are regulated in transportation by the U. S. Department of Transportation,
and are also covered by IATA (International Air Transport Association), ICAO
(International Civil Aviation Organization), and ARD (European Ground
Transportation of Dangerous Goods). It is the responsibility of the shipper to
ensure compliance with these or any other local requirements. Consult
current regulations and requirements before shipping.
Each Blue Power Module (A0701PBU) contains two "D" size primary lithium
batteries. Primary lithium batteries (charged or discharged) are regulated in
transportation by the U.S. Department of Transportation, and are also
covered by IATA (International Air Transport Association), ICAO
(International Civil Aviation Organization), and ARD (European Ground
Transportation of Dangerous Goods). It is the responsibility of the shipper to
ensure compliance with these or any other local requirements. Please
consult current regulations and requirements before shipping.

2.6 Position the antenna
The antenna should be positioned vertically, either straight up or straight
down, and it should be approximately 3 ft. (1 m) from any large structure,
building, or conductive surface to allow for clear communication to other
devices.
Figure 2-5: Antenna Positioned Vertically
2.7 Adjust LCD meter orientation
If a device display is ordered, it will be shipped attached to the level detector.
The display is ordered in the level detector model number, option code M5.
2.7.1 Rotate the device display
The device display can be rotated in 90-degree increments.
Procedure
1. Squeeze the two black tabs on opposite sides of the display.
2. Gently pull out the display.
3. Rotate the display to the desired orientation, and snap the display
into place.
Note
If the device display four-pin connector is inadvertently removed
from the interface board, carefully re-insert the connector before
snapping the device display back into place.

2.8 Adjust housing orientation
The housing can be rotated for optimal viewing of the optional LCD display
and to get the best antenna position.
Procedure
1. Loosen the set screw until the level detector housing can rotate
smoothly.
Do not unscrew all the way. Rotating the housing, without this screw
in place, can damage the internal wiring.
2. First, rotate the housing clockwise to the desired location.
If the desired location cannot be achieved due to thread limit, rotate
the housing counterclockwise.
3. Re-tighten the set screw.
Note
Do not attempt to rotate the housing beyond the thread limit.
