3. Connect the grounding terminal on the bottom of the transmitter to the grounding

element of the installation site with a 4 mm

grounding wire.

4 mm2

4. After grounding the transmitter, switch on the power supply input.

5.6

Optional: testing analog output level with a

multimeter

The transmitter body enclosure must not be opened in an explosion

hazardous area, unless a safe work permit has been issued in accordance with

the standard IEC 60079-14. Either remove the transmitter from the hazardous

area before opening the enclosure, or ensure that an IEC 60079-14 compliant

safe work procedure has been implemented in the hazardous area.

CAUTION!

Always use an Ex compliant multimeter. The output parameters of the multimeter

must be compatible with the input parameters of the transmitter.
