Prerequisite(s)
Read all sensor documentation first to
ensure you are familiar with your particular
sensor wiring.
1. Using a screwdriver and a hammer,
punch out a hole for the cable
through one of the knock-outs on
the bottom of the enclosure as
shown (Figs. 1&2).
Caution: Take care not to hit or damage the
internal battery.
2. Take the cable gland out of the
provided kit. Install the cable gland
through the hole you just punched
out (Fig. 3) in such a way that the
gasket is on the outside of the
enclosure. Tighten the nut on the
inside but not the cable gland (Fig.
4).
Note:
The provided cable gland can
accommodate one (1) 5-10 mm wire. To
accommodate additional wires please order
the optional multi-wire kit from Sensus.
3. Run your customer provided
transducer cable through the cable
gland and into the center of the
Smart Gateway module (Fig. 5) to
measure the length. Pull back out to
butt the cable sheath approximately
8 inches and strip the wires
approximately .25 inch. Trim any
unnecessary wires.
4. Run the stripped cable through the
cable gland and then tighten the
cable gland to hold the cable in
place. You will want to make sure
that the wire has enough give in it
so the lid will close without bending
or breaking the wire.
5. Using the #0 Phillips screwdriver,
loosen the screws in the terminal
block.
