7.1 TEMPERATURE INPUT PORT
The temperature input is provided with four terminals for the connection of the PT100
sensor. The SILBUS-TX1T temperature input will accept two, three or four wire PT100
sensors, the figures above show the connection of the sensor to the temperature
transmitter. Terminal 12 is provided for connecting of earth to shunt away transients and
noise. Use minimum 2.5mm
2
conductor for this connection.

Table 5 Temperature input termination details
The +SENSE terminal 9 is linked to the DRIVE terminal 8 for two wire PT100 sensors only.
The
–SENSE input is not implemented on the SILBUS-TX1T. Terminal 10 is only there to
provide a place to terminate the
–SENSE wire of a four wire sensor, no additional
compensation is provided beyond that of a three wire sensor.
The temperature input is not galvanically isolated from the SILBUS network port; therefore
it is important that the sensor and its wiring are completely isolated from earth or ground to
avoid placing earths on the SILBUS network. The common mode noise rejection
capabilities of the SILBUS network are significantly compromised if the SILBUS network is
connected to earth or ground.

7.2 SILBUS NETWORK PORT
The SILBUS network port provides a means for the transmitter to be connected to a
SILBUS network. Any connections to a SILBUS field bus network pair should be of a multi-
drop nature with spur lengths kept to a minimum. This will minimize any reflections and
therefore communications errors in the SILBUS network.
