5.1 Connecting SITRANS LUT400
SITRANS LUT400
38 Operating Instructions, 07/2019, A5E33329501-AC
5.1.3 Cables
The SITRANS LUT400 is designed to work with two conductor shielded transducer cables.
mA output, sync,
Temperature sensor,
discrete input
2 copper conductors, twisted, with shield
1
/drain wire, 300V 0.324 -0.823 mm
2
(22 - 18 AWG).
Shielded two-wire. Maximum length: 365 m
Copper conductors per local requirements.
1)
Preferred shielding is braided shield.
Coaxial transducer cable extension
Do not use a coaxial transducer cable extension with the SITRANS LUT400. High voltage
transmitted on shield of coaxial cable could result in personal injury, damage to equipment,
or poor device performance.
5.1.4 Transducers
Hazardous voltage present on transducer terminals during operation
Do not connect coaxial cable directly to SITRANS LUT400 due to high voltage
transmitted on shield of coaxial cable.
Do not connect the LUT400 shield and white transducer wires together; wire to separate
terminals.
Disregard older transducer manuals that recommend these practices.
