the transducers.
Note: L
T-10 transducers are designed for 4 inch to 10 inch meters. LT-11 transducers are designed
for 12 inch and larger meters.
Note: Th
e ultrasonic transducers are not intended for use across boundary walls of different
hazardous area classifications. The transmitter electronics cannot be remote mounted from
a Division 1 classification to a Division 2 area to meet an area classification.
Acquisition Cable
• Total cable length between the Acquisition Module and ultrasonic transducers must not
exceed 15 feet (4.7 meters) when using the remote mount option (
see Figure 1-7)
