CAUTION
• Installation of the transient protection terminal block does not provide
transient protection unless the transmitter case is properly grounded.
• Do not run signal wiring in conduit or open trays with power wiring, or
near heavy electrical equipment.Do not connect the powered signal
wiring to the test terminals.
• Power could damage the test diode in the terminal block.
4.1 Wire the transmitter
Use the following steps to wire the transmitter:
Procedure
1. Remove the housing cover on the FIELD TERMINALS side.
2. Connect the leads as shown in Figure 4-1 or Figure 4-2.
3. Tighten the terminal screws to ensure full contact with the terminal
block screw and washer. When using a direct wiring method, wrap
wire clockwise to ensure it is in place when tightening the terminal
block screw.
Note
The use of a pin or ferrule wire terminal is not recommended as the
connection may be more susceptible to loosening over time or under
vibration.
4. Ground housing to fulfill local grounding regulations.
5. Ensure proper grounding.
It is important that the instrument cable shield:
• Be trimmed close and insulated from touching the transmitter
housing
• Be connected to the next shield if cable is routed through a
junction box
• Be connected to a good earth ground at the power supply end
6. If transient protection is needed, refer to Grounding for transient
terminal block for grounding instructions.
7. Plug and seal unused conduit connections.
8. Replace the housing cover.
