Installation of Immersion, Sanitary or Union Mounting
4/00 Series 5000TC Toroidal (electrodeless) Conductivity Sensors - Operation and Maintenance 9
Union Mount (for Tee, Weldolet, Pipe Saddle, etc.)
The convertible style sensor may be mounted in any standard 2-inch NPT fitting (pipe tee, weldolet, pipe
saddle, etc.) by using a special Honeywell union-mount adapter.
Table 3-2 Union Mount Procedure
Step Action
1Install a standard 2-inch NPT fitting (pipe tee, weldolet, pipe saddle, etc.) into the process line.
Preferably, the fitting should be made of a material to provide a suitable maximum
pressure/temperature rating for the application. Refer to Subsection 2.1 for specifications.
2Fasten the special short nipple of the Honeywell union-mount adapter into the 2-inch NPT fitting.
Carefully tighten the threaded connection to prevent leaks. Figure 3-2 and Figure 3-3 respectively
show pipe tee and flange mounting details.
3Route the sensor cable through the cord grip of the Honeywell union-mount adapter, and tighten the
sensor into the adapter’s flanged piece.
4Wire the sensor directly to the instrument or indirectly using interconnect cable and a junction box. In
either case, make sure that the sensor or interconnect cable is cut to the proper length to minimize
electromagnetic interferences.
A Make sure to very carefully terminate the wires and shields of the respective cable(s) by
following the procedure described in Section 4.
B Refer to the instructions in the instrument manual to electrically connect the sensor to the
instrument.
5Before mounting the sensor into the process line or vessel, calibrate the measurement system with
conductivity reference solution using the procedure in the instrument instruction manual.
6After calibration, mount the sensor into the installed 2-inch NPT fitting:
A Properly seat the gasket into its mating groove on the special short nipple of the Honeywell
union-mount adapter.
B Carefully place the sensor into the short nipple, making sure the gasket is in place and
contacting the adapter’s flanged surface.
C Tighten the union-mount adapter lock-ring onto the special short nipple to secure the
connection.
This completes the sensor mounting using the special Honeywell union-mount adapter.
