3.1 Overview
This section describes how to properly mount the Gateway and make electrical connections,
including electrical wiring, grounding, and host system connections. This section also describes
how to mount the optional remote antenna.
3.1.1 General considerations
The Smart Wireless Gateway may be mounted in any general purpose location. Be sure the
covers are secured tightly to prevent exposure of any electronics to moisture and
contamination.
The Gateway should be mounted in a location that allows convenient access to the host system
network (process control network) as well as the wireless field device network.
Explosions could result in death or serious injury.
 Verify that the operating atmosphere of the device is consistent with the appropriate
hazardous locations certifications.
Electrostatic discharge can damage electronics.
 Use proper personal grounding before handling electronics or making contact with
leads and terminals.
Electrical shock could cause death or serious injury. If the device is installed in a
high-voltage environment and a fault condition or installation error occurs, high
voltage may be present on transmitter leads and terminals.
 Use extreme caution when making contact with the leads and terminals.
Failure to follow these installation guidelines could result in death or serious injury.
 Make sure only qualified personnel perform the installation.
