2.3.2
Hardware Recommendations:
Supply Voltage:
17-42 VDC
Load Resistance:
250 to 600 ohms (includes cable resistance)
Refer to Figure 1.3.2 on page 7 for power
supply voltage requirements and load
resistance.
Minimum cable size:
24 AWG, (0.51 mm diameter)
Cable Type:
Single pair shielded or multiple pair with
overall shield
Maximum Twisted-Pair Length:
10,000 ft. (3,048 m)
Maximum Multiple Twisted-Pair Length:
5,000 ft (1,524 m)
Use the following formula to determine cable length for a specific application:
L = 65 x 106 - (Cr + 10,000)
(R x C)
C
where:
L = length in feet or meters
R = resistance in ohms (current sense resistance plus barrier resistance)
C = cable capacitance in pF/ft or pF/m
Cf = maximum shunt capacitance of field device in pF
