Complete Installation
This section provides detailed procedures for properly
installing, configuring, and, as needed, troubleshooting the
PULSAR Radar Level Transmitter.
2.1
Unpacking
Unpack the instrument carefully. Make sure all components
have been removed from the packing material. Check all the
contents against the packing slip and report any discrepancies
to the factory.
Before proceeding with the installation, do the following:
• Inspect all components for damage. Report any damage to
the carrier within 24 hours.
• Make sure the nameplate model number on the antenna and
transmitter agree with the packing slip and purchase order.
• Record the model and serial numbers for future reference
when ordering parts.
2.2
Electrostatic Discharge (ESD)
Handling Procedure
MAGNETROL electronic instruments are manufactured to
the highest quality standards. These instruments use electronic
components that may be damaged by static electricity present
in most work environments.
The following steps are recommended to reduce the risk of
component failure due to electrostatic discharge.
Ship and store circuit boards in anti-static bags. If an anti-
static bag is not available, wrap the board in aluminum foil.
Do not place boards on foam packing materials.
Use a grounding wrist strap when installing and removing
circuit boards. A grounded workstation is recommended.
Handle circuit boards only by the edges. Do not touch
components or connector pins.
Make sure that all electrical connections are completely
made and none are partial or floating. Ground all equip-
ment to a good, earth ground.
