Isolated sensors
The isolated sensors are not connected to the local ground potential. They can be
operated potential-free. Local conditions or interference can cause potential
differences U
CM
(static or dynamic) between the M-- measuring lines of the input
channels and the reference point of the measuring circuit M
ANA
.
The following applies to ensure that the approved value for U
CM
is not exceeded
during operation in areas with high EMC interference:
• with the 2AI U, 2AI I 4WIRE and 2AI TC analog input modules: Connect M--
with M
ANA
!
• There must not be a connection from M-- to M
ANA
when connecting 2-wire
measurement transducers for current measurement and resistor sensors.
