Note:  The process temperature must not exceed the operating temperature range of  
the transducers.
Note:  LT-10 transducers are designed for 4 inch to 10 inch meters. LT-11 transducers are designed 
for 12 inch and larger meters. 
Note:  The 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 (
