6 46-648 Jupiter Magnetostrictive Transmitters
1.3.3 Operational Considerations
Exterior ambient temperature of the service should not
exceed the design specifications of the electronics (-40° to
+175° F (-40° to +80° C)). The operating temperature
limits of the LCD are -5° to +160° F (-20° to +70° C).
Temperatures below -5° F will cause the display to tem-
porarily white out, and temperatures above +160° F will
cause the display to go temporarily black. It will recover
without damage when the operating temperature range
returns. A sunshade should be used if electronics are
mounted in direct sunlight.
Maximum process temperature for direct insertion
transmitters is +500° F (+260° C). Externally mounted
transmitters can be used with process temperatures up
to +850° F (+455° C) if the MLI is equipped with an
insulation blanket from the factory.
1.3.4 Configuration Information
Some key information is needed to configure the Jupiter
transmitter. Complete the following operating parameters
table before beginning configuration.

20.0 mA the 20.0 mA value? _____________
1.4 Mounting
1.4.1 External
Caution: Do not rotate the Jupiter electronics enclosure or any
threaded fittings. Rotating the electronics enclosure will
void warranty and could cause damage to sensor cables.
If ordered from the factory with the MLI, the transmitter
will be attached to the gauge and configured for the meas-
uring range specified at the time of order placement. If
not, use the following directions:
1. Place the Jupiter transmitter and mounting clamps in a
convenient location.
2. Position the Jupiter transmitter on the side of the MLI
where it will be attached. Mark the location and the exact
area where the clamps will be attached to hold the Jupiter
in place.
