CONNECTIONS
AND HARDWARE
The HART Communicator exchanges information with the transmitter
from the control room, the instrument site, or any wiring termination
point in the loop. The HART Communicator should be connected in
parallel with the transmitter.
Figure C-3. Connecting the HART Communicator to a Transmitter Loop
NOTE
The HART Communicator needs a minimum of 250 ohms resistance in
the loop to function properly. The HART Communicator does not
measure loop current directly.
Explosions can result in death or serious injury. Before connecting the HART
Communicator in an explosive atmosphere, make sure the instruments in the loop are
installed in accordance with intrinsically safe or nonincendive field wiring practices.
