5.4 RTD Cable Connection
(EJX910A/EJX930A)
Connection of the RTD cable is always required to
measure external temperature. Follow the procedures
below to connect a cable when a cable gland or a conduit
is used.
5.4.1 Connecting Shielded Cable with
Cable Gland (External temperature
input code: -1, -2, -3, and -4)
• RTD connection components: EJX multivariable
transmitter, two cable glands, and RTD cable.
Two cable glands are attached.

The RTD cable connecting port is covered with a cap to
keep out dust. The cap should not be removed until you
are ready to install the cable.
• Components for the cable gland
The cable gland assembly consists of an entry, seal,
running coupler, and backnut. Confirm that the seal is
attached inside the entry and that the thread size of the
cable gland is the same as that for the RTD electrical
connection.
