EMERSON Rosemount 2140 and 2140:SIS Level Detectors
About this guide
This Quick Start Guide provides basic guidelines for the Rosemount 2140 and 2140:SIS Level Detectors. Refer to the Rosemount 2140 and 2140:SIS Reference Manual for more instructions. The manual and this guide are also available electronically at Emerson.com/Rosemount.
Safety messages
WARNING
Failure to follow safe installation and servicing guidelines could result
in death or serious injury.
Ensure the level detector is installed by qualified personnel and in accordance with applicable code of practice.
Use the level detector only as specified in this manual. Failure to do so may impair the protection provided by the level detector.
The weight of a level detector with a heavy flange and extended fork length may exceed 37 lb. (18 kg). A risk assessment is required before carrying, lifting, and installing the level detector.
For installations in hazardous locations, the level detector must be installed according to the Rosemount 2140 and 2140:SIS Level Detectors Product Certifications document.
WARNING
Explosions could result in death or serious injury.
Verify that the operating atmosphere of the level detector is consistent with the appropriate hazardous locations certifications.
Before connecting a handheld communicator in an explosive atmosphere, ensure that the instruments in the loop are installed in accordance with intrinsically safe or non incentive field wiring practices.
In explosion-proof/flameproof and non-incentive installations, do not remove
the housing covers when power is applied to the level detector.
Both housing covers must be fully engaged to meet flameproof/explosion-proof
requirements.
WARNING
Electrical shock could cause death or serious injury.
Avoid contact with the leads and terminals. High voltage that may be present on leads can cause electrical shock.
Ensure the power to the level detector is off, and the lines to any other external power source are disconnected or not powered while wiring the level detector.
Ensure the wiring is suitable for the electrical current and the insulation is suitable for the voltage, temperature, and environment.
WARNING
Process leaks could result in death or serious injury.
Ensure the level detector is handled carefully. If the process seal is
damaged, gas might escape from the vessel (tank) or pipe.
WARNING
Physical access
Unauthorized personnel may potentially cause significant damage to and/or
misconfiguration of end users’ equipment. This could be intentional or
unintentional and needs to be protected against.
Physical security is an important part of any security program and fundamental to protecting your system. Restrict physical access by unauthorized personnel to protect end users’ assets. This is true for all systems used within the facility.
CAUTION
Hot surfaces
The flange and process seal may be hot at high process temperatures. Allow to
cool before servicing.
Installation
Fork alignment in a pipe installation
The fork is correctly aligned by positioning the groove or notch as indicated (Figure 2-1).

Mounting the threaded version
Threaded vessel (tank) or pipework connection
Procedure
-
Seal and protect the threads. Use anti-seize paste or PTFE tape according to site procedures.
A gasket may be used as a sealant for BSPP (G) threaded connections. -
Screw the level detector into the process connection.
Note: Tighten using the hexagon nut only.

A. Gasket (customer supplied) -
Tighten the bolts and nuts with sufficient torque for the flange and gasket.
-
Seal and protect the threads. Use anti-seize paste or PTFE tape according to site procedures.
A gasket may be used as a sealant for BSPP (G) threaded connections. -
Screw the level detector into the flange thread.
Note: Tighten using the hexagon nut only. A. Gasket for BSPP (G) threaded connection
Mounting the flanged version
Procedure
- Lower the level detector into the nozzle. A. Gasket (customer supplied)
- Tighten the bolts and nuts with sufficient torque for the flange and gasket.
Mounting the Tri Clamp version
Procedure
- Lower the level detector into the flange face.A. Seal (supplied with Tri Clamp)
- Fit the Tri Clamp.
Adjust display orientation (optional)
To improve field access to wiring or to better view the optional LCD display:
Procedure
-
Loosen the set screw until the level detector housing can rotate smoothly.
Do not unscrew all the way. Rotating the housing, without this screw in place, can damage the internal wiring. -
First, rotate the housing clockwise to the desired location.
If the desired location cannot be achieved due to thread limit, rotate the housing counterclockwise. -
Re-tighten the set screw.
Note: Do not attempt to rotate the display beyond the thread limits.

Prepare the electrical connections
Cable selection
Use 24–14 AWG wiring. Twisted-pairs and shielded wiring is recommended for environments with high EMI (electromagnetic interference). Two wires can be safely connected to each terminal screw.
Cable glands/conduits
For intrinsically safe, explosion-proof/flameproof, and dust-proof installations, only use certified cable glands or conduit entry devices. Ordinary location installations can use suitably rated cable glands or conduit entry devices to maintain the Ingress Protection (IP) rating.
Unused conduit entries must always be sealed with a suitably rated blanking/stopping plug.
Note: Do not run signal wiring in conduit or open trays with power wiring or near heavy electrical equipment.
Power supply
Each level detector operates on 10.5 – 42.4 Vdc (10.5 – 30 Vdc in Intrinsically Safe installations) at the level detector terminals.
Power consumption
Maximum of 1 W, and current maximum is 23 mA.
Hazardous areas
When the device is installed in hazardous areas (classified locations), local regulations and the conditions-of-use specified in applicable certificates must be observed. Review the Rosemount 2140 Product Certifications document for information.
Load limitations
For HART® communications, a minimum load resistance of 250 Ω is required.
The maximum loop resistance is determined by the voltage level of the external power supply (see Figure 3-1).

- A. Loop resistance in Ohms (Ω)
- B. External power supply voltage (Vdc)

Grounding
Make sure grounding is done according to national and local electrical codes. Failure to do so may impair the protection provided by the equipment.
Grounding the housing
The most effective grounding method is direct connection to earth ground with minimal impedance. There are two grounding screw connections provided (see Figure 3-3).

- B. Internal ground screw
Signal cable shield grounding
Make sure the instrument cable shield is:
- Trimmed close and insulated from touching the housing.
- Continuously connected throughout the segment.
- Connected to a good earth ground at the power supply end.

Pull the cable through the cable gland/conduit.
Identification of thread size and type: -
Connect the cable wires.
Torque 7 in-lb (0.8 Nm) -
Ensure proper grounding.
-
Tighten the cable gland.
Apply PTFE tape or other sealant to the threads.Note: Make sure to arrange the wiring with a drip loop . -
Plug and seal the unused conduit connection to avoid moisture and dust accumulation inside the housing.
Apply PTFE tape or other sealant to the threads. -
Attach and tighten the cover.
- Verify the cover jam screw is completely threaded into the housing.
- Attach and tighten the cover.
Make sure the cover is fully engaged. There should be no gap between the cover and the housing.
-
Required for explosion-proof/flameproof installations only:
- Turn the cover jam screw counterclockwise until it contacts the cover.
- Turn the jam screw an extra ½ turn counterclockwise to secure the cover.
- Verify that the cover cannot be removed.
-
Connect the power supply.
