This document explains how to install relay modules for the Series 3000 device. Relays are used to
connect the device’s discrete outputs to control devices.
2.2Relay types
Two types of relay can be used with the Series 3000:
•The Model 3100 relay module supplied by Micro Motion. The Model 3100 contains three
solid-state relays.
•User-supplied relay or relay module compatible with the Series 3000 discrete outputs (see
Section 2.5.1).
2.2.1Power
The Model 3100 relay module is powered by the Series 3000 discrete outputs.
User-supplied relays can be powered by the Series 3000 discrete outputs if both of the following are
true:
•They are solid-state relays, and
•The relay input requirements are met by the discrete output characteristics (see Section 2.5.1).
If either of these conditions is not true, user-supplied relays must be powered externally.
2.3Hazardous area installations
If you are installing the relay or relay module in a hazardous area, review the information in this
section.
Relay Installation
2.3.1Model 3100 relays
ATEX
Model 3100 relay modules are suitable for installation in Zone 2, complying with ATEX Directive
(94/9/EC) for Group II, Category 3G, according to CENELEC standard prEN 50021:1998 and
marked as:
•EEx nV II T4
•KEMA 97 ATEX 4940 X
•Ambient temperature –20 to +60 °C (–4 to +140 °F)

Installing Relays
WARNING
To comply with hazardous area requirements:
•Model 3100 relay modules must be mounted into a suitable and classified enclosure that
•The external metal parts of the relay module (heat sinks) must be connected to the
UL and CSA
Model 3100 relay modules are suitable for installation in Class I, Division 2, Groups A, B, C, and D.
Note: For CSA compliance, the relay module must be installed in a suitable enclosure where the final
combination is subject to acceptance by the Canadian Standards Association (CSA).
The Model 3100 Relay Assembly must be installed into an end-use enclosure or panel with the proper
enclosure Type Ratings for the location per the National Electrical Code, Articles 500 and 501.
Additionally, the end-use enclosure or panel must require the use of a tool in order to access the fuses
on the Model 3100. A switch suitable for the location where the device is installed must be provided
and installed to remove power to the fuse(s) before replacement.
provides ingress protection of at least IP4X according to EN 60529, taking into account the
environmental conditions into which the equipment will be installed.
potential-equalizing system within the hazardous area.
Explosion Hazard.
Substitution of any component may impair suitability for Division 2.
Do not remove or replace fuses while circuit is live unless the area is known to
be free of ignitable concentrations of flammable substances.
Do not disconnect while the circuit is live or unless the area is known to be
free of ignitable concentrations of flammable substances.
2.3.2User-supplied relays
User-supplied relays to be used for Zone 2 applications must be certified as Category 3 equipment.
2.4Replacing relays
You may not replace a defective relay separately. If an individual relay is defective, you must replace
the entire relay module.
This requirement applies to both the Model 3100 and to user-supplied relays, and to both hazardous
and non-hazardous areas.
2.5Using relays with the Series 3000 device
A relay is used to connect the Series 3000 device’s discrete outputs to control devices.

Step 2Connect discrete output terminals to relays
Follow the steps below to connect the transmitter/controller’s discrete output wiring terminals to one,
two, or three relays.
1. Use the following wire sizes:
2. Connect the wires between the transmitter/controller terminals and the relay terminals as
Shock Hazard.
Improper installation of wiring, or installation with power supply on, can cause
electric shock or property damage.
For personal and system safety:
• Shut off power before installing wiring.
• Make sure the installation meets or exceeds local code requirements.
• Install relays and wiring in accordance with the illustrations in these instructions.
• Install relays and wiring where ambient temperature remains between –4 and
+140°F (–20 and +60°C).
