2 Wireless considerations
Power up sequence
The Emerson Wireless Gateway should be installed and functioning properly
before commissioning the Rosemount ET310C and powering it with a BP20E
power module.
Note
Wireless devices should be powered up in order of proximity from the
Gateway, beginning with the closest device, then working outward from the
Gateway. This results in a simpler and faster network formation. Enable
Active Advertising on the Gateway to ensure new devices are able to join the
network faster. For more information, see the Emerson Wireless 1410S
Gateway.

3 Physical installation
The sensor is mounted onto the pipe in the location of desired
measurement.
3.1 Preparation
Procedure
1. Identify the location where the sensor is to be installed.
2. Ensure all cladding and insulation is removed around the
circumference of the pipe at the sensor location.
Note
Cladding or insulation can be replaced after the sensor installation is
completed, provided that the head of the sensor remains outside of
the insulation. Insulation materials can be installed around the sensor
as desired and according to local procedures.
3. Clean the area where the sensor will touch the pipe to remove any
particles that might keep the transducer away from the pipe surface
or damage the face of the transducer. A permanent marker may be
used to show exactly where each sensor is to be placed on the pipe.
4. A key pipe diameter consideration is determining the required shoe.
A. Ring
B. Standard (4-to 8-in) Shoe
C. Alternative (2-to 3-in) Shoe
For installation on pipes with diameter 4-to 8-in, shoe B should be
selected.
September 2022 Quick Start Guide
Quick Start Guide 9

For installation on pipes with a diameter less than 4 inches (e.g. NPS
2 or NPS 3 pipes) then shoe C should be selected.
3.2 Mounting the sensor
Procedure
1. Remove the strap from the packaging.
2. Remove the protective cap from the sensor.
CAUTION
Once the protective cap is removed, the strong magnetic field at the
end of the sensor can suddenly attract other objects, such as tools.
Figure 3-1: Sensor with Protective Cap
Quick Start Guide September 2022
10 Emerson.com/Rosemount

CAUTION
This can cause injury as well as damage to the sensor.
Only remove the protective cap when necessary and then take great
care. Ensure tools and fastenings are kept away from the sensor
when the cap is removed.
3. If the rubber shoe needs to be refitted, ensure the ring is still in place,
then fit the shoe onto the sensor by pushing the two pegs protruding
from the foot of the sensor into the holes in the shoe.
If the ring is missing, do not use the sensor.
4. Carefully place the sensor in the required location on the pipe.
NOTICE
The magnets used in the sensors have a high pull force. To avoid
damage, and to get the precise location for each sensor, initially
place the sensor at an angle to the pipe and then gently lower the
shoe onto the pipe.
Tip
One person should hold the sensor until the strap is installed.
5. Slide the strap through the sensor, pass the strap through the buckle
as in Figure 3-2. Where possible, position the buckle opposite the
middle sensor to ensure both sides of the strap are tightened evenly.

Figure 3-2: Loose Strap on the Sensor
6. Tighten the strap by hand to gently hold the sensor in place. If
necessary, adjust the position of the sensor to ensure correct
alignment around the circumference of the pipe.
7. If there is an excessive length of spare strap, the excess may be cut
off by using the cutter on the strap tightening tool.
Figure 3-3: Cutting away excess strap
8. Prepare the lanyard kit and decide how it will be positioned.
Wrap the lanyard around the circumference of the pipe. The 7 ft (2
m) length will accommodate a maximum diameter of 24 in (610
mm). When it is not possible to wrap the lanyard around a pipe, find
an alternative attachment point for the lanyard.
9. Thread the bare end of the wire through the loop in the lanyard to
secure it to the pipe.

4 Commissioning the sensor
Commissioning allows the sensor to securely join a designated network and
communicate with a gateway. The IK220 installation kit comes with a
commissioning interface (CC21) and a tablet PC with the Permasense
installation application installed. The CC21 provides an electronic interface
between the ET310C sensor and the tablet PC during commissioning.
The CC21 commissioning cable is connected and removed from the
transmitter in the same way as BP20E power module. The CC21 USB
connector is plugged in to the tablet PC (see ).
Note
All the sensors connected to the network and Gateway must have the same
network ID and Join Key.
Procedure
1. Power up the rugged tablet PC and connect the CC21 commissioning
interface to the tablet PC USB port.

Quick Start Guide 15

Note
The waveform for ET310C will not fill the entire screen due to the
measurable thickness capability.
Good waveform Bad waveform
2. Check the quality of the waveform. The first one or two reflections
must be well defined above the noise in the signal. Only one
reflection is needed to calculate a thickness.
If the signal is poor, move the sensor to a slightly different position.
3. Verify that the measured thickness displayed is in line with
expectations.
4. Tighten the strap using the tensioning tool provided so that the
rubber shoe is compressed slightly and the sensor is held in place
securely.
Note
Overtightening the strap will deform the shoe and could damage the
sensor.
5. Wait for a new waveform to display and check the ultrasonic
waveform quality is still good after tightening the strap
6. Cut off any unnecessary strap.
