STEP 5. Wiring the sensor to the transmitter
Installation options
The sensor has one of the following configurations:
• A core processor to a 4-wire remote transmitter or remote host
(requires a 4-wire cable); see Core processor to a 4-wire remote
transmitter or remote host, page 14.
• 9-wire junction box to a remote transmitter (requires a 9-wire cable);
see 9-wire junction box cable wiring, page 19.
WARNING
Failure to comply with requirements for intrinsic
safety in a hazardous area could result in an
explosion.
• For installation in an area that requires intrinsic safety,
refer to Micro Motion UL, CSA, or ATEX
documentation, shipped with the sensor or available
from the Micro Motion web site.
• For hazardous area installations in Europe, refer to
standard EN 60079-14 if national standards do not
apply.
CAUTION
Failure to seal the sensor and transmitter housings
could cause a short circuit, which would result in
measurement error or flowmeter failure.
• Ensure integrity of gaskets and O-rings.
• Grease all O-rings before sealing.
• Install drip legs in cable or conduit.
• Seal all conduit openings.
