Connecting the sensor cables

Terminal assignment of the sensor terminals (® е 5, д 13).

NOTICE

When connecting 2 sensors, ensure that there is no galvanic connection between the

sensors (e.g. caused by sensor elements that are not isolated from the thermowell). The

resulting equalizing currents distort the measurement considerably.

►

The sensors must remain galvanically isolated from one another by connecting each sensor
separately to a transmitter. The transmitter provides sufficient galvanic isolation (> 2 kV AC)
between the input and output.

The following connection combinations are possible when both sensor inputs are assigned:

Sensor input 1

Connecting the power supply and signal cables

!

CAUTION

►

Switch off power supply before installing or connecting the head transmitter. Failure to
observe this may result in destruction of parts of the electronics.

Cable specification
• A normal device cable suffices if only the analog signal is used.
• A shielded cable is recommended for HART

®

communication. Take the plant grounding

concept into consideration.

Please also observe the general procedure on (® д 13).
