CAUTION
Incorrect measured values with incorrect grounding
The device must not be grounded via the "+" connection. It may otherwise malfunction and be permanently damaged.
● If necessary, ground the device using the "-" connection.
Note
Electromagnetic compatibility (EMC)
You can use this device in industrial environments, households and small businesses.
For metal housings there is an increased electromagnetic compatibility compared to high-frequency radiation. This
protection can be increased by grounding the housing, see section "Connecting the device (Page 21)".
Note
Improvement of interference immunity
● Lay signal cables separate from cables with voltages > 60 V.
● Use cables with twisted wires.
● Keep device and cables in distance to strong electromagnetic fields.
● Use shielded cables to guarantee the full specification according to HART.
● Connect a load resistor of at least 230 Ω in series in the signal circuit in order to guarantee fault-free HART
communication. When power supply isolators are used for HART transmitters, e.g. SITRANS I, a load resistor is already
installed in the device.
Connecting the device
Opening the device
1.
