Residual dangers
The ClipX system is a state-of-the art unit and as such is reliable. The scope of supply and performance of the ClipX system covers only a small area of mea­surement technology however. In addition, equipment planners, installers and operators should plan, implement and respond to the safety engineering consid­erations of measurement technology in such a way as to minimize residual dan­gers. For example, automation equipment and devices must be designed in such a way that adequate protection or locking against unintentional actuation is provided (e.g. access controls, password protection, etc.). When devices are working in a network, these networks must be designed in such a way that mal­functions in individual nodes can be detected and shut down. Safety precau­tions must be taken both in terms of hardware and software, so that a line break or other interruptions to signal transmission do not cause undefined states or loss of data in the automation device.

Mounting
Procedure
1. Use a size T10 Torx screwdriver to remove the screws indicated in the pic­ture.
2. Keep the screws, because you should reuse them.
3. Make your mounting bracket. The material should be about 1 to 2mm thick, to enable you to reuse the original (M3) screws. The space between the two screws is 43.7 mm.
4. Fix your mount either using the original screws or using M3 screws pene­trating a maximum of 5mm into the housing. Fasten the screws only hand­tight.
Important: You must ground the ClipX housing, such as by way of the mount.

The ClipX features IP20 protection in accordance with EN 60529 (protection against touch by fingers; protection against foreign bodies of Ø > 12mm).
The ClipX is supplied as standard with easy-fit push-in terminals. But you can also obtain screw-type terminals from Phoenix Contact (https://www.phoenixcontact.com
MC 1.5/3-ST-3.5 BK for the analog output, – MC 1.5/12-ST-3.5 BK for the power supply, digital I/O, ClipX bus and syn-
chronization of the TF amplifiers, – MC 1.5/13-ST-3.5 BK for connection of sensors. Other variants, such as with locking clips, are also available from Phoenix Con-
tact, e.g. MCVW 1.5/…, MCVR 1.5/…, FK-MCP 1.5/… The clamping range of the plug terminals is 0.2mm
(AWG16). If you need to connect multiple wires to one terminal, adapt the wire cross-sections accordingly. Use 10mm wire end ferrules (without plastic collars) to connect the wires to the terminals wherever possible.
The plug terminals can be protected against interchanging by the supplied coding pins. To do so, plug a coding pin into one of the slots in the device sockets and remove the lug of the corresponding connection on the plug ter­minal.

6.2 Shielding and grounding design

The supply voltage connection, as well as the signal and sense leads, must be installed in such a way that electromagnetic interference does not adversely affect module functionality (HBM recommendation: “Greenline shielding design” – see http://www.hbm.com/Greenline shortest possible length to the plug terminals and, as far as possible, lay the shield flat at the control cabinet inlet with shield connection terminal blocks, e.g. type SKS 8-SNS35 – 3062786 from Phoenix Contact – see illustration.
Fig. 7: Shield connection terminal block for flat contacting of cable shields (ex-
ample)
Double-shielded connecting cables, e.g. for sensors
We recommend using HBM cable Kab 7.5/00-2/2/2 wherever possible. The cable is double-shielded and low in capacitance. When using double-shielded cables, connect the outer shield only to the connection for the housing (ground
). Always connect the cable shield by the
symbol , labeled “Outer cable shield” in the connection diagrams), not to one of the GND connections ( ). In the case of control cabinets, also lay this shield contacting on the cabinet – see illustration of shield clamp. Connect the inner shields of the sensor cables to the connection labeled “Inner cable shield” ( ). Use the shortest lines possible for the connections.
Applications in areas with potentially explosive atmospheres are exceptions. There connect all cable shields to the potential equalization connection.
Single-shielded cables
Connect the shields of single-shielded cables to the connection for the housing
(ground symbol , labeled “Outer cable shield” or “Cable shield” in the connec­tion diagrams), not to one of the GND connections ( ). In the case of control cabinets, also lay this shield contacting on the cabinet – see illustration of shield clamp.

Electrical isolation of the GND connections
The following connections are electrically isolated from each other:
DI, GND (Ground) Digital-In: Reference potential for DI1 and DI2.
X, GND ClipX bus: Reference potential for ClipX bus (CxA, CxB) and Sync; on the BM40PB PROFIBUS-GND is also connected by this.
AI, GND Analog-In: Reference potential for U-In and I-In; the adjacent mea­surement inputs for voltage and current.
S GND for the inner shield on double-shielded cable; with 1-wire TEDS, TEDS (–) is also connected here.
AO, GND Analog-Out: Reference potential for the analog output.

6.4 Health monitoring, LEDs

There are 1 to 3 LEDs on the front, depending on the device type. On the BM40IE the LEDs have different meanings, indicated by differing labels, depending on the fieldbus.
Fig. 9: Assignment of the LEDs to the interfaces on the BM40IE and BM40PB.
The BM40 only has the system LED.
The following tables list the states indicated by the LEDs. The LEDs flash about once a second in flash mode, and about five times a second in rapid-flash mode.
