6.3.4 Check Meter Connection
Connect the check meter to the CHECK + and –
terminals (use hooks).
• A 4 to 20 mA DC output signal from the CHECK +
and – terminals.
(Note) Use a check meter whose internal resistance is 10
1
or less.

6.4 Wiring
6.4.1 Loop Configuration
Since the DPharp uses a two-wire transmission system,
signal wiring is also used as power wiring.
DC power is required for the transmitter loop. The
transmitter and distributor are connected as shown
below.
For details of the power supply voltage and load
resistance, see Section 6.6; for communications line
requirements, see Subsection 8.1.2.

(2) Intrinsically Safe Type
For intrinsically safe type, a safety barrier must be
included in the loop.

6.4.2 Wiring Installation
(1) General-use Type and Intrinsically Safe
Type
Make cable wiring using metallic conduit or water-
proof glands.
• Apply a non-hardening sealant to the terminal box
connection port and to the threads on the flexible
metal conduit for waterproofing.
