Figure 6 Installation with 700 Gas Sensor
If remote sensor separation is required, the Profi-RAM will be separated from the 700 sensor. Remote
separation distances of up to 1000 feet are possible with the recommended cables.
NOTE: It is highly recommended to install the interconnecting cabling inside rigid metal
conduit to eliminate potential EMI and RFI interference.

Figure 7 Remote 700 Gas Sensor with Profi-RAM
The recommended cables for remote sensor separation are Belden 8770 (18AWG three wire, Shielded cable)
for connection of power and mA signal return, and Belden 9841 for serial Modbus™ communications. Use
Belden 3079A for the Profibus communications.
NOTE 1: The yellow (reserved wire) does not need to be connected in the remote sensor
configuration.
NOTE 2: Both the 3 wire power/mA cable and the 2 wire Modbus™ serial communications
cable are required when remote wiring between the Profi-RAM and the 700 Gas Sensor.
