5 Connecting to power supply

VEGAPULS 64 • 4 … 20 mA/HART - two-wire

51141-EN-160815

With plastic housing, the NPT cable gland or the Conduit steel tube 

must be screwed without grease into the threaded insert.
Max. torque for all housings, see chapter "

Technical data

".

If screened cable is required, the cable screen must be connected on 

both ends to ground potential. In the sensor, the screen is connected 

directly to the internal ground terminal. The ground terminal on the 

outside of the housing must be connected to the ground potential (low 

impedance).
In Ex systems, the grounding is carried out according to the installa-

tion regulations.
In electroplating plants as well as plants for cathodic corrosion protec-

tion it must be taken into account that significant potential differences 

exist. This can lead to unacceptably high currents in the cable screen 

if it is grounded at both ends.

Information:

The metallic parts of the instrument (process fitting, sensor, concen-

tric tube, etc.) are connected with the internal and external ground 

terminal on the housing. This connection exists either directly via 

the conductive metallic parts or, in case of instruments with external 

electronics, via the screen of the special connection cable.
You can find specifications on the potential connections inside the 

instrument in chapter "

Technical data

".

5.2 Connecting

The voltage supply and signal output are connected via the spring-

loaded terminals in the housing.
Connection to the display and adjustment module or to the interface 

adapter is carried out via contact pins in the housing.

Information:

The terminal block is pluggable and can be removed from the 

electronics. To do this, lift the terminal block with a small screwdriver 

and pull it out. When reinserting the terminal block, you should hear it 

snap in.

Proceed as follows:
1.  Unscrew the housing lid
2.  If a display and adjustment module is installed, remove it by turn-

ing it slightly to the left.

3.  Loosen compression nut of the cable gland and remove blind 

plug

4.  Remove approx. 10 cm (4 in) of the cable mantle, strip approx. 

1 cm (0.4 in) of insulation from the ends of the individual wires

5.  Insert the cable into the sensor through the cable entry
