Figure 2-3. Supply Current versus Input Voltage

Figure 2-3shows the supply current for each corresponding supply voltage. For combinations not shown, you can calculate the maximum distance given the supply current, the voltage of the source, and the minimum start-up voltage of the transmitter, 12 V DC, using the following equation:

	MaximumResis tance =	SupplyVoltage-------------------------------------------------------------------–12VDC-

Power Supply (Volts)

I = 10/V

I = Supply current requirement (Amps)

V = Power supply voltage (Volts)

Installation Category Overcurrent Protection

Connect Transmitter Power

The installation category for the Rosemount 8732 is (overvoltage) Category II.

The Rosemount 8732 Flowmeter Transmitter requires overcurrent protection of the supply lines. Maximum ratings of overcurrent devices are as follows:

Power System	Fuse Rating	Manufacturer
95-250 Vac	250 V; 2 Amp, Quick Acting	Bussman AGCI or Equivalent
42 Vdc	50 V, 3 Amp, Quick Acting	Bussman AGCI or Equivalent

To connect power to the transmitter, complete the following steps.

1.Ensure that the power source and connecting cable meet the requirements outlined on page 2-7.

2.Turn off the power source.

3.Open the power terminal cover.

4.Run the power cable through the conduit to the transmitter.

5.Connect the power cable leads as shown in Figure 2-4.

a.Connect AC Neutral or DC- to terminal 9.

b.Connect AC Line or DC+ to terminal 10.

c.Connect AC Ground or DC Ground to the ground screw mounted inside the transmitter enclosure.
