4.3 Recommended connection
For maximum EMC protection please observe the following points:
• The external ground terminal on the transmitter must be connected to ground.
• The continuity of the cable screening between tapping points must be ensured.
• If potential equalisation is present between the individual grounding points, ground the screening
at each cable end or connect it to the device housing (as short as possible).
• If there are large differences in potential between grounding points, the grounding should run via
a capacitor that is suitable for high frequency use (e.g. ceramic 10 nF/250 V&).
"
Caution!
Applications, which are subject to the explosion prevention, permit only under special conditions
the repeated grounding of the protective screen , see to EN 60 079-14..
4.4 Degree of protection
• with closed housing tested according to
– IP68, NEMA6P (24 h at 1.83 m under water surface)
– IP66, NEMA4X
• with open housing: IP20, NEMA1 (also ingress protection of the display)
4.5 Post-connection check
After wiring the measuring instrument, perform the following checks:
• Is the terminal allocation correct (see → ä 36 and → ä 37)?
• Is the cable gland tight?
• Is the M12 connector screwed tight?
• Is the housing cover screwed tight?
• If auxiliary power is available:
Is the instrument ready for operation and is the liquid crystal display visible?
