5 Wiring the field transmitter
NOTICE
When connecting 2 sensors ensure that there is no galvanic connection between the
sensors (e.g. caused by sensor elements that are not isolated from the thermowell).
The resulting equalizing currents distort the measurements considerably.
‣
The sensors must remain galvanically isolated from one another by connecting each
sensor separately to a transmitter. The transmitter provides sufficient galvanic isolation
(> 2 kV AC) between the input and output.
The following connection combinations are possible when both sensor inputs are assigned:
