unrecognizable on the nameplate.
NOTICE
Ambient temperature too high
Damage to cable sheath.
● At an ambient temperature ≥ 60 °C (140 °F), use heat-resistant cables suitable for an ambient temperature at least 20
°C (68 °F) higher.
NOTICE
Incorrect measured values with incorrect grounding
The device must not be grounded via the "+" connection. It may otherwise malfunction and be permanently damaged.
● If necessary, ground the device using the "-" connection.
Note
Electromagnetic compatibility (EMC)
You can use this device in industrial environments, households and small businesses.
For metal housings there is an increased electromagnetic compatibility compared to high-frequency radiation. This
protection can be increased by grounding the housing, see Chapter "Connecting the device (Page 17)".
Note
Improvement of interference immunity
● Lay signal cables separate from cables with voltages > 60 V.
● Use cables with twisted wires.
● Keep device and cables in distance to strong electromagnetic fields.
● Use shielded cables to guarantee the full specification according to HART.
● Refer to HART communication information in Chapter "Technical data (Page 27)".
