Connection instructions
The not-intrinsically safe input of the safety
barrier type 145 is connected via a standard
two-wire line to the EA-card.
The not-intrinsically safe input of the safety
barrier type 146 or VEGATRENN 546 is con-
nected via a standard two-wire line to the EV-
card.
If electromagnetic interferences are ex-
pected, screened cable should be used. The
screen must only be earthed on one sensor
or instrument side. The wiring of the intrinsi-
cally safe outputs of the safety barrier with
the sensors (in hazardous areas) must be
made acc. to the valid mounting regulations.
In addition the special conditions and instruc-
tions in the conformity certificates must be
observed.
