NOTE

Rosemount-supplied mounting includes critical alignment hardware 
that assists in the correct drilling of the mounting hole. It also assists in 
the alignment of the sensor to the mounting hole for insertion.

1. At the pre-determined position, place the thread-o-let on the pipe, 

gap

-in. (6-mm) tack welds at 90° 

increments. 

2. Check alignment of the mounting both parallel and perpendicular to 

the axis of flow (see Figure 7). If alignment of the mounting is within 
tolerances, finish weld per local codes. If outside of specified 
tolerance, make adjustments prior to making the finish weld.

3. To avoid serious burns, allow the mounting hardware to cool 

before continuing.
