2.4 Sensor location
WCX Series Valve Position Sensor models
Process Suggested location Explanation
Gases Above the gas line or gas valve The condensate drains away from the
sensor
Liquids •Above but close to the
elevation of the process
valve or other control
•Level with the process valve
or other control
•The condensate drains away from
the sensor
•This facilitates a horizontal linkage
between valve and sensor
2.5 Bracket mounting
Orientation
The WCX Series sensor may be mounted in any vertical, horizontal or angled orientation. The main consideration is
to facilitate coupling of the valve or other device to the input shaft of the sensor.
For best signal, it is generally recommended that the antenna be oriented vertically (see Section 4).
A higher elevation may give better signal range than a lower elevation, depending on obstacles.
Attach sensor to valve
Figure 5 shows an "L" shaped mounting bracket specifically fabricated to allow mounting of the sensor above a
valve. Connection of the sensor shaft to valve shaft is done via a “U” shaped bracket, permitting easy manual
activation of the valve.

3.1. Basic Requirements
Honeywell • Sensing and Control 13
3. Process Insertion
3.1 Basic Requirements
Non-sparking considerations
To maintain non-sparking characteristics, non-sparking linkages, actuators and hardware are required.
Distance from multinode
The maximum range of the WCX Series sensor system is 1000 ft [305 m], under ideal conditions, with a clear line of
sight. This will be reduced if the signal has to pass through dense materials such as brick, concrete, or wood. Metal
objects, tanks, pipes, or other structures, will not pass signals, however signals will tend to reflect off metallic
objects, such that clear line of sight may not be essential.
Angle to be measured
The angle input to the sensor input shaft must be no greater than approximately 270 degrees. If the input linkage
used applies an angular movement greater than this, proper calibration will not be possible. Angular motion beyond
270 degrees will engage the slip clutch within the product.
Sensor update rate
The maximum update rate possible is one measurement and update per second. Insure that the update rate chosen
will capture all necessary events when the monitored device is moving at its fastest speed. The rate of data updates
may be set through wireless builder. The update rate cannot be set locally using the IR port. If the factory default
update rate is not suitable for the application, it should be changed through wireless builder. Note that the default
refresh rate is factory set to one per 30 seconds to maximize battery life. Battery life will be affected by the update
rate selected; faster rates will decrease battery life.
Access to cover for configuring sensor, changing batteries
Configuring and calibrating will require access to the top of the sensor. Allow room for cover removal and for a
clear view of the IR sensing element (see WCX Series Sensor User's Manual).
Replacement of internal batteries will require removing the cover, and partial removal of a battery assembly. Allow
clearance for this (see WCX Series Sensor User's Manual).
Honeywell recommends that the sensor be removed from service and moved to a clean area before servicing. Use
care to avoid rotating the input shaft, causing the internal slip clutch to slip.
Proximity to high powered L-band transmitters
The WCX Series sensor system operates in the 2.4 Ghz. frequency band using an encrypted, spread-spectrum
data modulation, with very high immunity to interference from other signals. Other devices using low powered
signals in this frequency range are some cordless telephones, personal computer WI-FI links and routers, and
video/audio remote transmission links. These are highly unlikely to cause any signal overloading problems and
thus, de-sensitization of the data link (low signal).
However, some high-powered microwave heating devices may operate with 1,000 watts or more, and may operated
in nearby frequency bands. While likelihood of interference is very small, it is best to avoid locating sensors or
multinodes in very close proximity to such devices.

3.2. Linkage Alignment
14 Honeywell • Sensing and Control
3.2 Linkage Alignment
Axis of valve and sensor input shaft
To allow smooth rotation, the axis of the valve or device must be parallel to the centerline of the sensor input shaft,
unless a flexible form of linkage (cables or ball joints) is used.
Alignment of linkage
If cables or ball joint couplings are not used, the linkage used must form a 90 degree angle with the sensor input
shaft and the valve shaft.
Figure 13. Axis parallel and linkage 90 degrees with shafts
If angle linearity is required
If the angle measurement must be linear (end points and all points between must be measured accurately), then the
sensor arm, valve arm, shaft-to-shaft spacing, and the linkage length must form a parallelogram (see Figure 14).
