3.1 Connection instructions

Note

Switch off the power supply before starting
connection work.

Connect the supply voltage according to the
following connection diagrams.

A multimeter can be connected to terminals 3
and 4 for setup. This connection is not suitable
for an indicating instrument.

Note

If strong electromagnetic interference is ex-
pected, we recommend using screened ca-
ble. The screening of the cable should only be
earthed on one end, i.e. the sensor end (elec-
trode).

Always connect the electrode to vessel
ground (PA). For this purpose there is a termi-
nal on the side of the housing. This connection
is also used to supply the ground reference
potential as well as to drain off electrostatic
charges.
