5 Connecting to power supply

FIBERTRAC 31 • Profibus PA

43833-EN-170126

5  Connecting to power supply

5.1  Preparing the connection

Always keep in mind the following safety instructions:

Warning:

Connect only in the complete absence of line voltage.

• 

The electrical connection must only be carried out by trained 

personnel authorised by the plant operator.

• 

If overvoltage surges are expected, overvoltage arresters should 

be installed.

Note:

Install a separating facility for the instrument which is easy to access. 

The separating facility must be marked for the instrument (IEC/

EN 61010).

The instrument is designed in protection class I. To maintain this 

protection class, it is absolutely necessary that the ground conductor 

be connected to the internal ground terminal. Take note of the national 

installation regulations.
Supply voltage and current signal are carried on separate connection 

cables if reliable separation is required. The supply voltage range can 

differ depending on the instrument version.
The data for power supply are specified in chapter "

Technical data

".

General requirements

• 

Use cable with round cross section for instruments with housing 

and cable gland. To ensure the seal effect of the cable gland (IP 

protection rating), find out which cable outer diameter the cable 

gland is suitable for.

• 

Use a cable gland fitting the cable diameter.

• 

Unused cable glands do not offer sufficient protection against 

moisture and must be replaced by blind plugs.

Voltage supply

For power supply, an approved, three-wire installation cable with PE 

conductor is required.

Signal cable

Use for the signal output a cable according to the respective bus 

specifications.

Metric threads

In the case of instrument housings with metric thread, the cable 

glands are screwed in at the factory. They are sealed with plastic 

plugs as transport protection.
You have to remove these plugs before electrical connection.

NPT thread

In the case of instrument housings with self-sealing NPT threads, it is 

not possible to have the cable entries screwed in at the factory. The
