Safety Messages
The Eclipse system is designed for use in Category II,
Pollution Degree 2 installations. Follow all standard
industry procedures for servicing electrical and computer
equipment when working with or around high voltage.
Always shut off the power supply before touching any
components. Although high voltage is not present in this
system, it may be present in other systems.
Electrical components are sensitive to electrostatic discharge.
To prevent equipment damage, observe safety procedures
when working with electrostatic sensitive components.
This device complies with Part 15 of the FCC rules.
Operation is subject to the following two conditions:
(1) This device may not cause harmful interference, and
(2) This device must accept any interference received,
including interference that may cause undesired operation.

QuickStart Installation
The QuickStart Installation procedures provide the key
steps for mounting, wiring, and configuring the Eclipse
level transmitter. These procedures are intended for experi-
enced installers of electronic level measurement instruments.
See Complete Installation, Section 2.0, for detailed installa-
tion instructions.
WARNING:
The Model 7xD, 7xG, 7xR or 7xT overfill probes should
be used for Safety Shutdown/Overfill applications. All
other Guided Wave Radar probes should be installed so
the maximum overfill level is a minimum of 6" (150 mm)
below the process connection. This may include utilizing
a nozzle or spool piece to raise the probe. Consult fac-
tory to ensure proper installation.
1.1
Getting Started
Before beginning the QuickStart Installation procedures,
have the proper equipment, tools, and information available.

QuickStart Mounting
NOTE: Confirm the configuration style and process connection
size/type of the Eclipse transmitter. Ensure it matches the
requirements of the installation before continuing with the
QuickStart installation.
x
Confirm the model and serial numbers on the nameplates
of the Eclipse probe and transmitter are identical.
NOTE: For applications using the Model 7xS steam probe, it is manda-
tory to keep the transmitter and probe matched as a set.
1.2.1 Probe
y
Carefully place the probe into the vessel. Align the probe
process connection with the threaded or flanged mounting
on the vessel.
