A.3 Electrical specifications
A.3.1 Power supply (nominal values)
24-48 Vdc (-15% to +10%) 48-240 Vac (-15% to +10%), 50/60 Hz
A.3.2 Power consumption
Max. 20 W depending on configuration.
Recommended Miniature Circuit Breaker (MCB): 2A slow
A.3.3 Tankbus cabling
0.5-1.5 mm² (AWG 22-16), twisted shielded pairs. Recommended cabling is shielded
twisted pairs, 0.75 mm² (AWG 18). Tankbus cabling must fulfill FISCO cable and
installation requirements, and must also be approved for use at minimum 85 °C (185 °F).
FISCO (Fieldbus Intrinsically Safe Concept)
The following cable characteristics are specified for FISCO:
Table A-3: FISCO Cable Parameters
Parameter
(1)
Value
Loop resistance 15 Ω/km to 150 Ω/km
Loop inductance 0.4 mH/km to 1 mH/km
Capacitance 45 nF/km to 200 nF/km
Maximum length of each spur
(2)
cable 60 m in apparatus class IIC and IIB
Maximum cable length including trunk
(3)
and
spurs

apparatus class IIB
(1) For further information see requirements of the IEC 61158-2 standard
(2) A spur is an unterminated part of the network.
(3) A trunk is the longest cable path between two devices on the fieldbus network, and is the part of
the network which has terminations at both ends. In the Rosemount Tank Gauging system, a
trunk is typically located between the Rosemount 2410 Tank Hub and a segment coupler or the
last device in a daisy-chain configuration.
