METER/AMPLIFIER LOCATION, ORIENTATION and APPLICATIONS Remote Amplier Outdoor Location The amplier can be installed and operated outdoors. However, protection from the elements must be considered: 6. Verify both ends of the signal cables are securely fastened. 7. Place power and signal cables in separate conduit. 8. Place the meter where there is enough access for installation/maintenance purposes. 1. Be aware of the ambient environment and temperature ratings for the unit -4°F to 122°F (-20°C to 50°C). 2. If an indoor location is within 100 feet (30m) of the detector installation, consider...

Straight Pipe Requirements Sufcient straight pipe runs are required at the detector inlet and outlet for optimum meter accuracy and performance. An equivalent of three (3) diameters of straight pipe is required on the inlet (upstream) side. Two (2) diameters are required on the outlet (downstream) side. spaced bursts, continuous stream of drips, a liquid or gas can also affect downstream readings by the meter.

To ensure proper unit operation, the mag meter impact ground (zero voltage reference) must be connected to the liquid media and to a good, solid earth ground. Perform grounding procedures after the meter is connected to the pipeline. FLOW RIGHT Conductive Pipe Grounding A grounding bolt is located on each mag meter ange. Drill and tap the pipeline anges on each side of the meter and install a grounding bolt to each. To ground the unit, attach a ground strap (provided) of copper wire, at least 12AWG size, between the grounding bolts on the meter anges and the bolts on the pipeline anges. Do...

METER INSTALLATION PLANS and EXECUTION REMOTE MOUNT AMPLIFIER/DETECTOR WIRING Plan meter layout, location and installation. During installation, remember these important points: Remote Mount Amplier The remote mount amplier has three chambers and ve wire ports. The Junction Box and Connections Chambers and wiring ports provide amplier openings for wire, conduit, tool and hand access to amplier terminal blocks. Detector to amplier wires connect in the Junction Box Chamber. Amplier AC power and customer signal wires attach in the Connections Chamber. 1. Heed all safety notications. 2. Select...

Electrode and Coil Wiring From Detector Junction Box to Remote Mount Amplier Juncton Box A remote mount unit requires electrode and coil cables, from the detector junction box to the amplier junction box, be enclosed in properly rated conduit. Use conduit ttings (not supplied) that are rated for Class I, Div 2 hazardous locations. 6. Run cable and conduit to Amplier junction box. Electrode Wiring in Amplier Junction Box To connect the electrode wires in the Amplier Junction Box: 1. Unscrew the amplier junction box chamber cover. If necessary, use a strap wrench. 2. Remove the protective...

4. Connect conduit to junction box. Use a NEMA 6P ½ inch NPT tting. 5. Install protective plastic cover over terminal blocks. 6. Attach the amplier junction box chamber cover. Electrode Wires OUTPUT WIRING The Badger® M-3000 Meter converts liquid ow into electrical signal(s). With proper output wiring and amplier programming, the signal(s) are sent to, and used by, processing equipment used in operations or other procedures. Coil Wires Coil wiring in detector chamber Red to terminal labeled – Clear to terminal labeled – NOTE: Output wires and terminals are the same for meter mount or remote...
