Extended Temperature Range VFM 3100

The Extended Range electronic module has a preamplifier mounted
under the electronic module. Do not dislodge the preamplifier.

Pull the electronic module out of the housing far enough to
be able to disconnect the four preamplifier leads (brown-red-

4.2. Electronic Module

The electronic module is made up of three printed wiring assemblies
(PWAs) and two captive screws. The electronic module is housed
in the transmitter housing opposite the side labeled “FIELD TERMI-
NALS.” On the back of the module are three terminal blocks.
See Table 10 for a summary of the terminal block connections.
