Mechanism
The CM2 ChannelMag is equipped with a grounding plate, normally manufactured from AISI 316
stainless steel. This makes sure there are no unequal potentials between the media and the shielding
of the ChannelMag connection cables. For cable distances from the junction box to the transmitter
of 100 feet (30m) further grounding requirements are not normally necessary. However, for longer
cable lengths a pre-amp in the junction box is necessary.

Section 2 Installation
2.4.7 ChannelMag PM2
The expander mechanism incorporates 2 left- hand and right- hand threaded rods, which when turned
with a wrench (spanner), secure the enhancement plates and sensor assembly firmly in pipe. Additional
fixtures or holes in the pipe are unnecessary.
Total cable distances of greater than 300 feet (100m) are not recommended, since it
increases the possibility of unequal potentials.
