6  Commissioning 
6.1  Safety instructions 
 
DANGER 
Danger of explosion if the device is operated with the 
transmitter housing or terminal box open! 
Before opening the transmitter housing or the terminal box, 
note the following points:  
—  Check that a valid fire permit is available. 
—  Make sure that there is no explosion hazard. 
—  Before opening the device, switch off the power supply 
and wait for t > 2 minutes. 
 
CAUTION 
Risk of burns due to hot measuring media. 
The device surface temperature may exceed 70 °C (158 °F), 
depending on the measuring medium temperature! 
Before starting work on the device, make sure that it has 
cooled sufficiently. 
 
6.2  Checks prior to commissioning 
The following points must be checked before commissioning: 
—  The power supply must be switched off. 
—  The power supply must match the information on the 
name plate. 
—  The wiring must be correct in accordance with the chapter 
titled "Electrical connections" on page 29. 
—  The earthing must correct in accordance with the chapter 
titled "Grounding" on page 30. 
—  The ambient conditions must meet the requirements set 
out in the technical data. 
—  The sensor must be installed at a location largely free of 
vibrations. 
—  The housing cover and its safety locking device must be 
sealed before switching on the power supply. 
—  For devices with a remote mount design, ensure that the 
sensor and transmitter are assigned correctly. 
 
 
 
6.2.1  Configuration of the outputs 
Current output 4 ... 20 mA / HART 
In the factory setting, the flow signal is emitted via the current 
output of 4 ... 20 mA. Alternatively, the temperature signal can 
be assigned to the current output. 
 
Digital output 
It is possible to use software to configure the optional digital 
output as an alarm, frequency or pulse output. 
It is possible to use a bridge to configure the digital output as 
an optoelectronic coupler output or a NAMUR output.

1 Bridge 
 
Output configuration  Bridge 
Optoelectronic coupler output  1—2 
NAMUR output  3—4 
 
In the factory setting, the output is configured as an 
optoelectronic coupler output. 
 
NOTICE
  
The type of protection of the outputs remains unchanged, 
regardless of the output configuration. 
The devices connected to the digital output must conform to 
the current regulations for explosion protection.
