INPUT WIRING & SPECIFICATIONS
CAUTION
Risk of electric shock.
Dangerous and lethal voltages may be present on the input termi-
nals. Please take appropriate precautions to ensure safety.
CAUTION
Risk of danger.
The sensor input can potentially float to dangerous and unexpected volt-
ages depending on what external circuit it is connected to. Appropriate considerations
must be given to the potential of the sensor input with respect to earth common.

0/4–20mA DC is the most commonly used analog signal in industry, and is universally accepted.
As a current loop, it is unaffected by voltage drops in cables, and can be transmitted over long
distances without signal degradation.
