Taking electrical noise precautions

Electrical noise is composed of unabated electrical signals which produce undesirable effects in measurement and control circuits.

Digital equipment is especially sensitive to the effects of electrical noise. Your recorder has built-in circuits to reduce the effect of electrical noise from various sources. If there is a need to further reduce these effects:

•Separate External Wiring—Separate connecting wires into bundles (see Table 2-6)and route the individual bundles through separate conduits or metal trays.

•Use Suppression Devices—For additional noise protection, you may want to add suppression devices at the external source. Appropriate suppression devices are commercially available.

For additional noise information, refer to document 51-52-05-01, How to Apply Digital Instrumentation in Severe Electrical Noise Environments.

CE conformity special conditions (Europe)

Shielded cables with a drain wire are required for all input and output cables. All instrument shielded cable drain wires must be connected to a low impedance earth ground at the entry fitting. Cable/conduit entry fittings shall effectively terminate the cable shield connecting the shield to the enclosure conductive coating. The shielded cable shield shall not extend into the instrument closure.
