2.3.3Operational 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 +800° F (+427° C) if the MLI is equipped with an insulation blanket from the factory.

2.3.4 Configuration Information

Some key information is needed to configure the Jupiter transmitter. Complete the following operating parameters table before beginning configuration.

2.4 Mounting

2.4.1 External

Caution: Do not rotate the Jupiter electronics enclosure. Rotating the electronics enclosure could cause damage to sensor cables.

If ordered from the factory with the MLI, it will be attached to the gauge and configured for the measuring 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.
