Wiring instructions for remote core processor with remote transmitter
There are two phases to this procedure:
• Wiring the remote core processor to the transmitter
• Wiring the sensor to the remote core processor
To wire the remote core processor to the transmitter:
1. Use one of the following methods to shield the wiring:
• If you are installing unshielded wiring in continuous metallic
conduit that provides 360° termination shielding for the enclosed
wiring, go to Step 6.
• If you are installing a user-supplied cable gland with shielded
cable or armored cable, terminate the shields in the cable gland.
Terminate both the armored braid and the shield drain wires in the
cable gland. Go to Step 6.
• If you are installing a Micro Motion-supplied cable gland at the
core processor housing:
- If you are using shielded cable, prepare the cable and apply
shielded heat shrink as described in Step 4. The shielded heat
shrink provides a shield termination suitable for use in the
gland when using cable whose shield consists of foil and not
a braid. Go to Step 2.
- If you are using armored cable, prepare the cable as described
in Step 4, but do not apply heat shrink – omit Steps 4d, e, f,
and g. Go to Step 2.
2. Identify the components shown in Figure 10. Remove the core
processor lid.
3. Slide the gland nut and the clamping insert over the cable.

4. For connection at the core processor housing, prepare shielded cable
as follows (for armored cable, omit steps d, e, f, g):
a. Strip 4 1/2 inches (114 mm) of cable jacket.
b. Remove the clear wrap that is inside the cable jacket, and remove
the filler material between the wires.
c. Remove the foil shield that is around the insulated wires, leaving
3/4 inch (19 mm) of foil or braid and drain wires exposed, and
separate the wires.
d. Wrap the shield drain wire(s) around the exposed foil twice. Cut
off the excess wire.
Shield drain wire(s) wrapped twice around exposed shield foil
e. Place the shielded heat shrink over the exposed shield drain
wire(s). The tubing should completely cover the drain wires.
f. Without burning the cable, apply heat (250 °F or 120 °C) to shrink
the tubing.
15
Shielded heat shrink completely covers exposed drain wires
g. Position gland clamping insert so the interior end is flush with the
heat shrink.
h. Fold the cloth shield or braid and drain wires over the clamping
insert and approximately 1/8 inch (3 mm) past the O-ring.
i. Install the gland body into the core processor housing conduit
opening.
5. Insert the wires through the gland body and assemble the gland by
tightening the gland nut.
6. Identify the wires in the 4-wire cable. The 4-wire cable supplied by
Micro Motion consists of one pair of 18 AWG (0,75 mm
2
) wires (red
and black), which should be used for the VDC connection, and one
2
pair of 22 AWG (0,35 mm
) wire (green and white), which should be
used for the RS-485 connection. Connect the four wires to the
numbered slots on the core processor.

3. Ground the cable. If using jacketed cable:
a. Ground the shield drain wires (the black wire) only on the core
processor end, by connecting it to the ground screw inside the
lower conduit ring. Do not ground to the core processor’s
mounting screw. Do not ground the cable at the sensor junction
box.
18
If using shielded or armored cable:
a. Ground the shield drain wires (the black wire) only on the core
processor end, by connecting it to the ground screw inside the
lower conduit ring. Do not ground to the core processor’s
mounting screw. Do not ground the cable at the sensor junction
box.
b. Ground the cable braid on both ends, by terminating it inside the
cable glands.
4. Ensure integrity of gaskets, grease all O-rings, then close the junction
box housing and core processor end-cap, and tighten all screws.
CAUTION
Damaging the wires that connect the transmitter to
the sensor can cause measurement error or meter
failure.
To reduce the risk of measurement error or meter failure,
when closing the housings on the sensor and core
processor, make sure that the wires are not caught or
pinched.
STEP 8. Connecting power supply wiring
CAUTION
Improper wiring installation can cause device failure
or measurement error.
• To avoid device failure or measurement error, do not
install power supply wiring in the same cable tray or
conduit as input/output wiring.
• Shut off power supply before installing the applications
platform.
• Make sure power supply voltage matches voltage that
is indicated on power supply wiring terminals. See
Figure 12.
19
Connect the Model 3350/3700 to a power supply as follows:
1. Use 18 to 12 AWG (0,75 to 4,0 mm
2
) wire.
2. Using a flat-head screwdriver, loosen the captive screws that secure
the display cover to the housing.
3. Ground the transmitter as follows:
• Connect the ground wire to the green screw (power supply
ground; see Figure 11).
• Connect the power supply ground wire directly to earth ground.
• Keep all ground leads as short as possible.
• Ground wiring must have less than 1 ohm impedance.
4. Connect wires to terminals 9 and 10 on the gray terminal block (see
Figures 11 and 12).
5. Close the display cover and tighten the screws.
6. A user-supplied switch may be installed in the power supply line. For
compliance with low-voltage directive 73/23/EEC (European
installations), a switch in close proximity to the Model 3350/3700 is
required.
