6.1 FF Command Input Wiring

The Logix 3400MD is non-polarity sensitive. Wire FF source to the
input terminals (see Figure 6). Minimum operating voltage is 9 VDC.

The FF signal to the Logix 3400MD digital positioner should be in
shielded cable. Shields must be tied to a ground at only one end of
the cable to provide a place for environmental electrical noise to be
removed from the cable. In general, shield wire should be connected
at the source. Refer to guidelines in FF AG-140 and FF AG-181 for
proper wiring methods.

6.2 Grounding Screw

The green grounding screw, located inside the termination cap,
should be used to provide the unit with an adequate and reliable earth
ground reference. This ground should be tied to the same ground as
the electrical conduit. Additionally, the electrical conduit should be
earth grounded at both ends of its run.

c

DANGER: The green grounding screw must not be used to

terminate signal shield wires.

DANGER: This product has electrical conduit connections in either

thread sizes 1/2” NPT or M20 which appear identical but are not

interchangeable. Housings with M20 threads are stamped with

the letters M20 above the conduit opening. Forcing dissimilar

threads together will damage equipment, cause personal injury

and void hazardous location certifications. Conduit fittings must

match equipment housing threads before installation. If threads

do not match, obtain suitable adapters or contact a Flowserve

representative.
