The LP10-4 is designed for installation in a BSP Rp1 (1" BSP

tapered) or 1" NPT threaded flange or cover. Note: Always

specify one of these threads for new installations.

A minimum 80 mm (3") nominal bore protection tube is

recommended if installing the probe in a boiler, or in a tank which

is subject to very turbulent conditions.

Additional environmental protection is needed for installation

outdoors.

Wiring note:

Wiring is straightforward on the LP10-4, as crimp connectors are

used. Extra connectors are available as a spares kit. Terminal posts

are colour coded for easy identification.

The wiring loom may be disconnected and removed without disturbing

the cable gland by lifting the gland carrier out of the lower housing.

Maintenance note:

No special maintenance is required, though boiler water level controls

do require periodic testing and inspection which is described in

separate literature.
