5. WIRING

᭿ Flameproof metal conduit wiring
• A seal fitting must be installed near the terminal box

connection port for a sealed construction.

• Apply a non-hardening sealant to the threads of the

terminal box connection port, flexible metal conduit
and seal fitting for waterproofing.

5.5 Grounding

(a) Grounding should satisfy JIS Class 3 requirements

(grounding resistance, 100

or less). Grounding is

required for JIS flameproof type and intrinsically
safe type.

(Note) If equipped with built-in Lightning Protector, grounding

should satisfy Special JIS class 3 requirements (grounding
resistance, 10

or less).

(b) There are ground terminals on the inside and

outside of the terminal box. Either of these termi-
nals may be used.

(c) Use 600 V grade PVC insulated wires for ground-

ing.

5.6 Power Supply Voltage and

Load Resistance

When configuring the loop, make sure that the external
load resistance is within the range in the figure below.

(Note) In case of an intrinsically safe transmitter, external load

resistance includes safety barrier resistance.
