March 2020 Quick Start Guide

3.1.4 Alarm relays

Emerson supplies four alarm relays with the switching power supply (85 to
264 Vac, 03 order code) and the 24 Vdc power supply (20 - 30 Vdc, 02 order
code). You can use all relays for process measurement(s) or temperature.
You can also configure any relay as a fault alarm instead of a process alarm.
In addition, you may configure any relay independently and program it to
activate pumps or control valves.

As process alarms, alarm logic (high or low activation or USP*) and
deadband are user-programmable. Customer-defined failsafe operation is
supported as a programmable menu function to allow all relays to be
energized or not energized as a default condition upon powering the
transmitter. You may program the USP* alarm to activate when the
conductivity is within a user-selectable percentage of the limit. USP*
alarming is available only when a contacting conductivity measurement
board is installed.

3.2 HART® current output wiring

Emerson ships all instruments with four 4-20 mA analog outputs.

Wire the relay leads on each of the independent relays to the correct
position on the main board using the lead markings (+/positive, -/negative)
on the board. Emerson provides male mating connectors with each unit.

3.3 Wire sensor to transmitter

Procedure

1. Wire the correct sensor leads to the main board using the lead
locations marked directly on the board.

2. Carefully slide the wired board fulling into the enclosure slot and take
up the excess sensor cable through the cable gland.
