The sensor requires a gasket at each of its connections to adjacent devices or 
piping. The gasket material selected must be compatible with the process 
fluid and operating conditions. Gaskets are supplied with all Rosemount 8721 
Sanitary sensors except when the process connection is an IDF sanitary 
screw type.

Standard plant practices should be followed when installing a magmeter with 
sanitary fittings. Unique torque values and bolting techniques are not 
required.

Sanitary Installation

Process grounding the sensor is one of the most important details of sensor 
installation. Proper process grounding ensures that the transmitter amplifier is 
referenced to the process. This creates the lowest noise environment for the 
transmitter to make a stable reading. Use Table 5-6 to determine which 
grounding option to follow for proper installation.
