Wiring the Transmitter to the Sensor

3.1Overview

This chapter describes how to connect Micro Motion Model 1700 and 2700 transmitters to a Micro Motion sensor.

Note: If you have an integral installation, this step is not required. Continue with wiring the transmitter outputs (Chapters 4–7).

Wiring requirements between the sensor and transmitter depend on the installation type (see Figure 2-1).

•If you have a 4-wire remote transmitter installation, review the information on 4-wire cable in Section 3.2, then follow the instructions in Section 3.3.

•If you have a 9-wire remote transmitter installation, review the information on 9-wire cable in Section 3.2, then follow the instructions in Section 3.4.

•If you have a remote core processor with remote transmitter installation, review the information on both 4-wire and 9-wire cable in Section 3.2, then follow the instructions in Section 3.5.

CAUTION

Large electromagnetic fields can interfere with flowmeter communication signals.

Improper installation of cable or conduit can cause measurement error or flowmeter failure. To reduce the risk of measurement error or flowmeter failure, keep cable or conduit away from devices such as transformers, motors, and power lines which produce large electromagnetic fields.

3.2Cable types

This section describes the types of 4-wire cable and 9-wire cable that can be used for wiring the transmitter to the sensor.
