Grounding the Barometer Housing

If you need to ground the barometer housing, the grounding connector
is found inside the housing. Make sure that different groundings are
made to the same potential. Otherwise harmful ground currents may
be generated.

If a galvanic isolation of the power supply line from the output signals
is needed, the barometer can be ordered with an optional output
isolation module. This module prevents harmful grounding loops.

Alternate Wiring Systems

There are four ways of powering the barometer: using basic wiring,
the D-9 connector, the M-12 connector, or the optional external AC-
adapter.

The wiring system is selected when ordering the device. If a connector
is needed for wiring, it is set at the factory.

- When using basic wiring, see section Signal and Power Supply

Wiring on page 28.

- When using 8-pin connector, see section M-12 (8-Pin) Connector

on page 30.

- When using D-9 connector, see section D-9 Connector on page 31.

- When using an optional external AC-adapter.
