Considerations
The Rosemount 2230 Graphical Field Display can be installed either on the
tank roof or at the foot of the tank for a flexible and convenient read-out of
tank data.
The 2230 is designed for mounting on a plate, on a wall, or on a pipe. The
display is attached to the plate with four M4 screws. It is important to provide
space for opening the weather protection lid which prevents degradation of
the LCD display due to sunlight exposure.
Consider the following when finding an appropriate location for the
Rosemount 2230 Graphical Field Display:
• Mount the 2230 in a location where it is protected from excessive sun
light. This will reduce exposure to ultra violet (UV) radiation and extend
the life-time of the LCD.
• In case the 2230 can not be protected from sun light and UV radiation,
it is recommended that the weather protection lid (see “2230
Components” on page 2-2) is closed whenever the 2230 is not used.
• An optional weather protection is available as an alternative method to
protect the 2230.
• When mounting the 2230 display ensure that sufficient space is
provided for opening the lid, see Figure 3-1.
