1. Check the Transmitter Nameplate

Before wiring, carefully check the transmitter nameplate information to ensure that the device model, power supply, and output configuration meet on-site requirements.

  • Transmitter name: Confirm the device model.
  • Order code: Used for spare parts ordering.
  • Serial number: Unique identifier.
  • Extended order code: Includes additional options.
  • Power supply/frequency, power consumption: Note whether it is 220VAC or 24VDC.
  • Additional functions and software: Check the software version.
  • Effective input/output: Confirm the I/O configuration.
  • Reserved special product information: Such as special certifications.
  • Indicate operating structure/document: Operating manual number.
  • Reserved certificates, approvals, and additional information on the device version: Such as ATEX, FM, etc.
  • Patent rights: Patent information.
  • Protection class: Such as IP67.
  • Ambient temperature: Permissible range.

2. Check the Terminal Compartment

Open the terminal compartment cover and check the internal label to confirm wiring information.

  • Serial number: Consistent with the nameplate.
  • Possible inputs and outputs: Available I/O types.
  • Input and output signals: Specific signal types.
  • Current output configuration: Active/passive.
  • Relay configuration: Normally open/normally closed.
  • Terminal assignment, power cable: Power supply terminals.
  • Terminal assignment and input/output configuration: Refer to points 4 and 5.
  • Currently installed device software version: Device version SW.
  • Type of installed communication: Communication protocol.
  • Information on current communication software: Driver version and device description.
  • Update date: Update date for points 6 to 9.
  • Current update specifies date for points 6 to 11: Latest update date.

A: Active current output, no external power supply required; P: Passive current output, external power supply required.

3. Wiring Between Sensor and Transmitter of Separate Mass Flowmeter

For separate installation, the sensor and transmitter are connected via a dedicated cable. Please select the correct version according to the installation environment.

  • a. Wall-mounted instrument: Non-hazardous area and ATEX I3G6/zoe 2.
  • b. Wall-mounted instrument: ATEX I2G / Zone 1 /FM/CSA.
  • c. Separate version, flange version: Depending on sensor type.
  • d. Connection parts and cover of connection housing: Ensure sealing.
  • e. Connection cable: Terminal numbers and colors for separate mass flowmeter: 4/5--S1 gray, 6/7--S2 green, 8--GND color, 9/10--TM pink, 11/12--TT white, 41/42--brown.

4. Transmitter Wiring

The transmitter is available in three types: aluminum housing, stainless steel housing, and wall-mounted instrument. The wiring method is similar, but the housing structure is different.

1. Connect the Transmitter (Aluminum Housing)

Cable inner diameter: max. 2.5 mm².

  • a. Power cable: Terminal 1: AC L1, DC L+; Terminal 2: AC N, DC L-.
  • b. Signal cable: Terminals 20--27.
  • c. Protective ground terminal: Connect protective ground.
  • d. Ground terminal for signal cable shield: Shield grounding.
  • e. Service interface connection: Fieldcheck, FieldCare service interface.
  • f. Cover screws and cover lock of terminal compartment: Ensure tight sealing.
