2.4.1.6 Installation on a Tank with a 1.25”BSP or 1.5”NPT Threaded Tank Fitting and

Airlock

Installation of the TLM100 on a tank with a 1.25” BSP or 1.5” NPT threaded tank fitting with an

airlock is identical to installation with a focus tube, except that the trimming step is eliminated.

Please refer to Section 2.4.1.5 for details of the mounting procedure.

2.4.2 Mounting the TLM100 Interface Component

The actual mounting of the TLM100 interface component is not critical and the unit can be

mounted in any orientation. The TLM100, NMEA 2000

connector, and cable are all

waterproof (rated IP67 – protected against temporary immersion in water) so you can mount

the unit virtually anywhere. Once you have located a suitable mounting location, you can

secure the TLM100 interface component by placing wire ties with screw eyes on the attached

cables next to the TLM100 interface component. Do not use threadlocking compounds

containing methacrylate ester, such as Loctite Red (271), as they will cause stress cracking of

the plastic enclosure.
