Procedure
If the Model 8800C electronics housing is mounted remotely, some
replacement procedures are different than for the flowmeter with
integral electronics. The following procedures are exactly the same:
• Replacing the Field Terminal Block (see page page 6-8).
• Replacing the Electronics Boards (see page page 6-9).
• Replacing the Sensor (see page page 6-12).
To disconnect the coaxial cable from the meter body and electronics
housing, follow the instructions below.
Disconnect the Coaxial Cable at the Meter
1. Remove the access cover on the meter body support tube.
2. Loosen the three housing rotation screws at the base of the
electronics housing with a hex wrench by turning the screws
clockwise (inward) until they will clear the bracket.
3. Loosen and remove the sensor cable nut from the union using
a
5
/16-inch open end wrench.
NOTE
Do not pull the adaptor more than 1.5 inches (40 mm) from the top of the
support tube. Damage to the sensor may occur if the sensor cable is stressed.
