4.1 Mounting ST 3000 Transmitter, Continued

Flush mounting

ATTENTION

To mount a flush mounted transmitter model, cut a hole for a 1-inch standard pipe in the tank or pipe where the transmitter is to be mounted. Weld the 1-inch mounting sleeve to the wall of the tank or to the hole cut on the pipe. Insert the meter body of the transmitter into the mounting sleeve and secure with the locking bolt. Tighten the bolt to a torque of 8.1 to 13.5 N · m (6 to10 lb-ft). Figure 8 shows a typical installation for a transmitter with a flush mount on a pipe.

Once the transmitter is mounted, the transmitter housing can be rotated to the desired position. See Table 8, step 4.

On insulated tanks, remove enough insulation to accommodate the mounting sleeve.
