If sealed metallic conduit is installed, it must provide 360° termination shielding for the enclosed 
flowmeter cable.

1. Install a drip leg in conduit to prevent liquids from entering the junction box.

2. Connect the sealed end of the conduit to the ¾-inch NPT female conduit opening on the sensor 

junction box.

1. Prepare cable ends and assemble the supplied cable gland according to the instructions that are 

enclosed with the cable preparation kit.

2. Connect the ¾-inch NPT male cable gland to the ¾-inch NPT female conduit opening on the 

sensor junction box.

1. At the sensor, insert the ends of the individual wires into the terminals inside the sensor 

junction box. Match the wire colors of the cable with the wire colors at the sensor wiring 
terminal as described in Figure 3-7 and Table 3-3. No bare wire should remain exposed.

2. If possible, position the junction box on the sensor so the conduit entrance points downward to 

prevent moisture from entering.

3. At the transmitter, if cable is not preinstalled, connect the cable to the transmitter terminals as 

• Seal all conduit openings.
• Install drip legs in cable or conduit.
• Fully tighten sensor junction box and transmitter housing 

covers. See Figure 3-8.
