Example: Two Redundant Sensors Connected via Two Channels to One F-AI (SIL3/Category 4)
The following figure presents the wiring diagram for an SM 336, AI 6 ☓ 13 bit with 4 mA to
20 mA current measurement range and 2-wire transducer output. The sensor is supplied by
the F-I/O. This wiring enables SIL3/Category 4 to be achieved.
