Notes on wiring
CAUTION
(1) The apparatus does not be provided with the cable connections. Please prepare yourself for the cable
connections which could be used in Division2 hazardous locations.
The cable lead –in section must be tightened securely to keep air tightness.
(2) Select the cable runs away from electrical equipment (motors, transformers, or radio
transmitters) which causes electromagnetic or electrostatic interference.
(3) Deterioration of flowmeter circuit insulation occurs if the converter interior or cable ends get wet or
humidified. This in turn causes malfunction of flowmeter or noise problems. Avoid a rainy day if
the flowmeter is to be installed outdoors. Even indoors, prevent water from splashing over the
flowmeter. Try to finish the wiring as quickly as possible
(4) The converter has an arrestor installed inside. Therefore, do not conduct a withstand voltage test
for the converter. To check the insulation of the converter, use a voltage of 250Vdc or less.
(5) After wiring, be sure to install the terminal block protection cover.
(6) Because the excitation cable and flow rate signal cable transmit very delicate signals, pass each of
them separately through a thick steel conduit tube, keep them away from the large current wiring as
far as possible, and do not install them in parallel.
5.1 Cables
Use the kind of cables shown in Table 5.1 to wire the converter.
