(2) Flameproof Type
Wire cables through a flameproof packing adapter,
or use a flameproof metal conduit.
■ Wiring cable through flameproof packing
adapter.
• Apply a non-hardening sealant to the terminal
box connection port and to the threads on the
flameproof packing adapter for waterproofing.

■ Flameproof metal conduit wiring
• A seal fitting must be installed near the terminal
box connection port for a sealed construction.
• Apply a non-hardening sealant to the threads of
the terminal box connection port, flexible metal
conduit and seal fitting for waterproofing.

6.5 Grounding
Grounding is always required for the proper
operation of transmitters. Follow the domestic
electrical requirements as regulated in each
country. For a transmitter with a built-in lightning
protector, grounding should satisfy ground
resistance of 10Ω or less.
Ground terminals are located on the inside and
outside of the terminal box. Either of these terminals
may be used.

6.6 Power Supply Voltage and
Load Resistance
When configuring the loop, make sure that the
external load resistance is within the range in the
figure below.
(Note) In case of an intrinsically safe transmitter, external load
resistance includes safety barrier resistance.
