cable screen must not be connected to the internal ground terminal in

the sensor and the outer ground terminal on the housing must not be

connected to the potential equalisation!
Information:

The metal parts of the instrument (process fitting, transmitter, concen-

tric tube, etc.) are conductively connected with the inner and outer

ground terminal on the housing. This connection exists either directly

via connecting 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.
The connection to the indicating 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 elec-

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

pull it out. When inserting the terminal block again, you should hear it

snap in.

Proceed as follows:
1. Unscrew the housing cover
2. If an indicating and adjustment module is installed, remove it by

turning it slightly to the left.

3. Loosen compression nut of the cable entry
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
