4.1 General instructions
Ondeviceswithathreadedtting,thehexagonontheprocesstting
must be tightened with a suitable wrench.
See chapter "Dimensions"forwrenchsize.
Warning:
The housing or the electrical connection may not be used for screw-
ing in! Tightening can cause damage, e. g. to the rotation mechanism
of the housing.
Protect your instrument against moisture ingress through the following
measures:
• Use a suitable connection cable (see chapter "Connecting to
power supply")
• Tighten the cable gland or plug connector
• Whenmountinghorizontally,turnthehousingsothatthecable
gland or plug connector point downward
• Lead the connection cable downward in front of the cable entry or
plug connector.
This applies mainly to outdoor installations, in areas where high
humidity is expected (e.g. through cleaning processes) and on cooled
or heated vessels.
To maintain the housing protection, make sure that the housing lid is
closed during operation and locked, if necessary.
Makesurethatthedegreeofcontaminationspeciedinchapter
"Technical data" meets the existing ambient conditions.
Metric threads
In the case of instrument housings with metric thread, the cable
glands are screwed in at the factory. They are sealed with plastic
plugs as transport protection.
You have to remove these plugs before electrical connection.
NPT thread
In the case of instrument housings with self-sealing NPT threads, it is
not possible to have the cable entries screwed in at the factory.The
free openings for the cable glands are therefore covered with red dust
protection caps as transport protection.The dust protection caps do
notprovidesucientprotectionagainstmoisture.
Prior to setup you have to replace these protective caps with ap-
proved cable glands or close the openings with suitable blind plugs.
Make sure before mounting that all parts of the instrument exposed to
the process are suitable for the existing process conditions.
These are mainly:
• Active measuring component
• Processtting
• Process seal
Screwing in
Protection against mois-
ture

• Chemical properties of the medium
• Abrasionandmechanicalinuences
Youcannddetailedinformationontheprocessconditionsinchapter
"Technical data" as well as on the type label.
The instrument is suitable for standard and extended ambient condi-
tions acc. to IEC/EN 61010-1.
4.2 Mounting instructions
Mount NivoGuide 8100 in such a way that the distance to vessel
installations or to the vessel wall is at least 300 mm (12 in). In non-
metallic vessels, the distance to the vessel wall should be at least
500 mm (19.7 in).
During operation, the probe must not touch any installations or the
vessel wall. If necessary, fasten the probe end.
In vessels with conical bottom it can be advantageous to mount the
sensor in the center of the vessel, as measurement is then possible
nearly down to the lowest point of the bottom. Keep in mind that
measurement all the way down to the tip of the probe may not be pos-
sible.The exact value of the min. distance (lower dead band) is stated
in chapter "Technical data" of the operating instructions.
Fig. 4: Vessel with conical bottom
Plastic vessel/Glass vessel
The guided microwave principle requires a metallic surface on the
processtting.Therefore,inplasticvessels,etc.,useaninstru-
mentversionwithange(fromDN50)orplaceametalsheet
(ø>200mm/8in)beneaththeprocessttingwhenscrewingitin.
Makesurethattheplatehasdirectcontactwiththeprocesstting.
When mounting rod or cable probes in vessels without metal walls,
e.g.inplasticvessels,themeasuredvaluecanbeinuencedby
strongelectromagneticelds(emittedinterferenceaccordingto
EN 61326: class A). In this case, use a probe with coaxial version.

If this is not possible, use short sockets with small diameter.
Higher sockets or sockets with a bigger diameter can generally be
used.They can, however, increase the upper blocking distance (dead
band). Check if this is relevant for your measurement.
In such cases, always carry out a false signal suppression after
mounting.Youcanndfurtherinformationunder"Setup procedure".

Before beginning the welding work, remove the electronics module
from the sensor. By doing this, you avoid damage to the electronics
through inductive coupling.
Donotmounttheinstrumentsinorabovethellingstream.Makesure
thatyoudetecttheproductsurface,nottheinowingproduct.

The reference plane for the measuring range of the sensors is the
sealingsurfaceofthethreadorange.
Keep in mind that a min. distance must be maintained below the refer-
ence plane and possibly also at the end of the probe - measurement
in these areas is not possible (dead band).The length of the cable
can be used all the way to the end only when measuring conductive
products.Theseblockingdistancesfordierentmediumsarelisted
in chapter "Technical data". Keep in mind for the adjustment that the
default setting for the measuring range refers to water.

Theprocessttingmustbesealedifthereisgaugeorlowpressurein
the vessel. Before use, check if the seal material is resistant against
the measured product and the process temperature.
Themax.permissiblepressureisspeciedinchapter"Technical
data" or on the type label of the sensor.
If there is a risk of the cable probe touching the vessel wall during
operation due to product movements or agitators, etc., the measuring
probeshouldbesecurelyxed.
There is an internal thread (M8) in the gravity weight, e.g. for an eye-
bolt (optional).
Make sure that the probe cable is not completely taut. Avoid tensile
loads on the cable.
Avoidundenedvesselconnections,i.e.theconnectionmustbe
eithergroundedreliablyorisolatedreliably.Anyundenedchangeof
this condition can lead to measurement errors.
If there is a danger of the rod probe touching the vessel wall, fasten
the probe at the bottom end.
Keep in mind that measurement is not possible below the fastening
point.

5.1 Preparing the connection
Always keep in mind the following safety instructions:
• Carryoutelectricalconnectionbytrained,qualiedpersonnel
authorised by the plant operator
• If overvoltage surges are expected, overvoltage arresters should
be installed
Warning:
Connect only in the complete absence of line voltage.
Power supply and current signal are carried on the same two-wire
cable.Theoperatingvoltagecandierdependingontheinstrument
version.
Thedataforpowersupplyarespeciedinchapter"Technical data".
Provide a reliable separation between the supply circuit and the
mains circuits according to DIN EN 61140 VDE 0140-1.
Power the instrument via an energy-limited circuit acc. to IEC 61010-
1, e.g. via Class 2 power supply unit.
Keepinmindthefollowingadditionalfactorsthatinuencetheoperat-
ing voltage:
• Lower output voltage of the power supply unit under nominal load
(e.g. with a sensor current of 20.5 mA or 22 mA in case of fault)
• Inuenceofadditionalinstrumentsinthecircuit(seeloadvaluesin
chapter "Technical data")
The instrument is connected with standard two-wire cable without
screen. If electromagnetic interference is expected which is above the
test values of EN 61326-1 for industrial areas, screened cable should
be used.
Use cable with round cross section for instruments with housing and
cable gland. Use a cable gland suitable for the cable diameter to
ensurethesealeectofthecablegland(IPprotectionrating).
We generally recommend the use of shielded cable for HART
multidrop mode.
Metric threads
In the case of instrument housings with metric thread, the cable
glands are screwed in at the factory. They are sealed with plastic
plugs as transport protection.
You have to remove these plugs before electrical connection.
NPT thread
In the case of instrument housings with self-sealing NPT threads, it is
not possible to have the cable entries screwed in at the factory.The
free openings for the cable glands are therefore covered with red dust
protection caps as transport protection.

58878-EN-190215
Prior to setup you have to replace these protective caps with ap-
proved cable glands or close the openings with suitable blind plugs.
On plastic housings, the NPT cable gland or the Conduit steel tube
must be screwed into the threaded insert without grease.
Max. torque for all housings, see chapter "Technical data".
If screened cable is required, we recommend connecting the cable
screening on both ends to ground potential. In the sensor, the cable
screening must be connected directly to the internal ground terminal.
The ground terminal on the outside of the housing must be connected
to the ground potential (low impedance).
In Ex systems, the grounding is carried out according to the installa-
tion regulations.
In electroplating plants as well as plants for cathodic corrosion protec-
tionitmustbetakenintoaccountthatsignicantpotentialdierences
exist.This can lead to unacceptably high currents in the cable screen
if it is grounded at both ends.
Information:
Themetallicpartsoftheinstrument(processtting,sensor,concen-
tric tube, etc.) are connected with the internal and external ground
terminal on the housing.This connection exists either directly via
the conductive metallic parts or, in case of instruments with external

5.2 Connecting
The voltage supply and signal output are connected via the spring-
loaded terminals in the housing.
Connection to the display and adjustment module or to the interface
adapter is carried out via contact pins in the housing.
Information:
The terminal block is pluggable and can be removed from the
electronics.To do this, lift the terminal block with a small screwdriver
and pull it out. When reinserting the terminal block, you should hear it
snap in.
Proceed as follows:
1. Unscrew the housing lid
2. If a display and adjustment module is installed, remove it by turn-
ing it slightly to the left
3. Loosen compression nut of the cable gland and remove blind
plug
4. Remove approx. 10 cm (4 in) of the cable mantle, strip approx.
1 cm (0.4 in) of insulation from the ends of the individual wires
5. Insert the cable into the sensor through the cable entry
