Ground the flowmeter components
In an integral installation, all components are grounded together.
If national standards are not in effect, adhere to the following guidelines for grounding:
•
Use copper wire, 14 AWG (2.5 mm
2
) or larger wire size.
•
Keep all ground leads as short as possible, less than 1
Ω impedance.
•
Connect ground leads directly to earth, or follow plant standards.
Ground via the piping, if possible (see sensor documentation). If grounding via the piping
is not possible, ground according to applicable local standards using the transmitter’s
internal or external ground screw.
