5.4 Connecting the transmitter
Cable specification
• A normal device cable suffices if only the analog signal is used.
• A shielded cable is recommended for HART
®
communication. Observe grounding
concept of the plant.
• In the case of the head transmitter version in the field mount housing with separate
terminal compartment or the DIN rail version, a shielded cable must be used if the
sensor cable length exceeds 30 m (98.4 ft). The use of shielded sensor cables is
generally recommended.
Please also observe the general procedure on → 16.

Shielded signal cable (recommended for HART
®
protocol)
• The terminals for signal cable connection (1+ and 2-) are protected against reverse
polarity.
• Conductor cross-section:
• Max. 2.5 mm
2
for screw terminals
• Max. 1.5 mm
2
for push-in terminals. Min. stripping length of cable
10 mm (0.39 in).
