A.4.1 Housing
NEMA 4X (IP67) epoxy painted cast aluminum housing.
Terminal compartment contains output terminals, power terminals and service-port terminals. The
output terminals are physically separated from the power- and service-port terminals.
• The electronics compartment contains all electronics and the standard display.
• The sensor compartment contains the wiring terminals for connection to the core processor on
the sensor.
Screw-terminal on housing for chassis ground.
Cable gland entrances are either 1/2″–14 NPT or M20 × 1.5 female conduit ports.
A.4.2 Mounting
Model 1700/2700 transmitters are available integrally mounted to some Micro Motion sensors, or in
two remote-mount configurations.
• Remote-mount transmitters include a mounting bracket, and require 4-wire or 9-wire signal
cables between the sensor and the transmitter. Maximum distance from other flowmeter
components depends on the installation type and cable type, as described in Table A-2.
• The transmitter can be rotated on the sensor or the mounting bracket, up to 360° in
90° increments.
