Ring, Sensor, and Special Installations
This chapter contains instructions for installing the adjustable stainless steel ring and
the sensors. These installation procedures require training and should not be
attempted by inexperienced personnel. Because of the hazardous conditions that can
exist in sewers and other places where the monitor is installed, a team of two or more
people should be involved in the installation. Specific safety procedures are beyond
the scope of this manual, but you should follow all company and governmental safety
policies. Failure to strictly adhere to these guidelines can result in personal injury and
can cause damage to the monitor (which would invalidate its warranty).
Changes or modifications to this unit not expressly approved by the party responsible
for compliance could void your authority to operate the equipment and void the
monitor's intrinsic safety certification. For more information on allowable field repairs,
see “Maintenance Restrictions” in Chapter 1.
The last topic in this chapter, “Special Installations,” deals with installing equipment in
non-standard environments. For example, pipes which are not round and pipes greater
than 48 in. (a standard stainless steel ring cannot be used) require a special installation.
Refer to page 4-20 for more information about special installations.
