WIRING THE CURRENT LOOP

The wiring for the current loop passes thru the bottom of the housing, thru the hole in the electronics board, and connects at

terminal strip J3. Refer to Figure 8. Guardian units will come from the factory with the wiring connected to IN and GND, which

is correct for applications where there is an existing powered current loop. For applications where the Guardian 1000™ will be

powering the current loop, the wiring needs to be moved to +24 and IN. Refer to the three illustrations below for three wiring

configurations.

GUARDIAN UNIT PROVIDING CURRENT POWER

In this scenario, the Guardian 1000™ is providing the power for the sensor thru the current loop. Typically the Guardian is

mounted directly to the sensor using a 3/4-inch NPT connection. The Guardian can supply no more than 24 mA to the sensor.

Please note the return wire is connected to JP3 - 2 (IN), and not to GND. The electronics of the Guardian unit route the return to

ground internally.
