Wiring
Caution:
The ECLIPSE Model 700 transmitter operates at voltages
of 11–36 VDC. Higher voltages will damage the transmitter.
Wiring connections between the power supply and the
ECLIPSE Model 700 transmitter should be made using
18–22 AWG shielded twisted pair instrument cable.
Connections are made to the terminal strip and the
ground connections beneath the LCD module.
The directions for wiring the ECLIPSE transmitter depend
on the application:
• General Purpose
• Intrinsically Safe
• Non-Incendive (Cl I, Div. 2)
WARNING!
Explosion hazard. Do not disconnect equipment unless
power has been switched off or the area is known to be
non-hazardous.
2.5.1 General Purpose or Non-Incendive (Cl I, Div. 2)
A general purpose installation does not have flammable
media present.
Areas rated Non-Incendive (Cl I, Div. 2) have flammable
media present only under abnormal conditions.
No special electrical connections are required.
To install General Purpose or Non-Incendive wiring:
1. Remove the cover of the Model 700 transmitter.
2. Using the grip edge at 3 o’clock and 9 o’clock on the LCD
module shown at left, carefully remove the LCD module
from the transmitter. (Note that this module is conve-
niently tethered to the device.)
3. Attach a conduit fitting and mount the conduit plug in the
spare opening. Pull power supply wire through the fitting.
4. If present, connect cable shield to an earth ground at the
power supply.
5. Connect an earth ground to the green ground screw (Not
shown in illustration).
6. Connect the positive supply wire to the (+) terminal and
the negative supply wire to the (-) terminal.
7. Align the LCD assembly in the connector slot and re-insert
the LCD assembly; replace and tighten the cover.
