Sensor Wiring Diagram

CAUTION!

Before wiring the device, disconnect or isolate all power connected to the device; otherwise electric
shock could occur.

External Controllers

The device can be connected to any device capable of accepting a 4 - 20 mA sourcing analog signal.
For FM approved systems, the connecting device must have latching alarms with manual reset. Ensure
that your controller can read all signals. Check the MSA website

www.MSAsafety.com

for available

controllers.

The HART output is intended to be used with digital control systems that are compatible with
HC Revision 7.0 protocol.
