5 Connecting to power supply
5.1 Preparing the connection
Always keep in mind the following safety instructions:
•
Connect only in the complete absence of line voltage
•
If overvoltage surges are expected, overvoltage arresters should
be installed
Power supply and current signal are carried on the same two-wire
cable. The voltage supply range can differ depending on the instru-
ment version.
The data for power supply are specified in chapter "Technical data".
Provide a reliable separation between the supply circuit and the
mains circuits according to DIN VDE 0106 part 101.
Keep in mind the following additional factors that influence the operat-
ing voltage:
•
Output voltage of the power supply unit can be lower under nomi-
nal load (with a sensor current of 20.5 mA or 22 mA in case of fault
message)
•
Influence of additional instruments in the circuit (see load values in
chapter "Technical data")
Connection is carried out with screened cable according to Fieldbus
specification.
Use cable with round cross-section. A cable outer diameter of
5 … 9 mm (0.2 … 0.35 in) ensures the seal effect of the cable gland.
If you are using cable with a different diameter or cross-section,
exchange the seal or use a suitable cable gland.
Make sure that the entire installation is carried out according to the
Fieldbus specification. In particular, make sure that the bus is termi-
nated with suitable terminating resistors.

After connecting the instrument to power supply or after a voltage
recurrence, the instrument carries out a self-check for approx. 30 s:
