Section 4 —Installation

4.1Mounting ST 3000 Transmitter

Summary

You can mount all transmitter models (except flush mount models and

 

those with integral flanges) to a 2-inch (50 millimeter) vertical or

 

horizontal pipe using our optional angle or flat mounting bracket, or a

 

bracket of your own. Flush mount models are mounted directly to the

 

process pipe or tank by a 1-inch weld nipple. Those models with integral

 

flanges are supported by the flange connection.

 

Figure 5 shows typical bracket mounted and flange mounted transmitter

 

installations for comparison.
