NOTE 1: Wiring table is based on stranded tinned copper wire and is designed to serve as a
reference only.
NOTE 2: Shielded cable is required for installations where cable trays or conduit runs include
high voltage lines or other possible sources of induced interference. Separate conduit runs are
highly recommended in these cases.
NOTE 3: The supply of power should be from an isolated source with over-current protection
as stipulated in table.
Terminal Connections
CAUTION: Do not apply System power to the sensor until all wiring is properly terminated.

a) Remove the junction box cover. Identify the terminal blocks for customer wire connections.
b) Observing correct polarity, terminate the 3-conductor 4-20mA field wiring (+, -, mA) to the sensor
assembly wiring in accordance with the detail shown in Figure 11. If the 4-20mA output is not used, the
green wire from the sensor must be connected to the (-) terminal on the Transient Protection Module.
NOTE: If the 4-20mA output is not being used, the Green wire from the sensor m ustbe
connected to the Black wire at the (-) terminal on the Transient Protection Module to
ensure RS-485 communication is not disrupted by a 4-20mA Fault.
c) If applicable, terminate the RS-485 serial wiring as shown in Figure 11. Use the second plug (Out) as
termination point on the customer side to facilitate a continuous RS-485 serial loop
