compliance with EN 50021 (1999).

Observe the following additional Zone 2 certification requirements:

• This equipment is not resistant to sunlight or other sources of UV

radiation.

• The secondary of a current transformer shall not be open–circuited.

• The marking “ALCR” is to be considered “as applicable” to individual

products.

• Equipment of lesser Enclosure Type Rating must be installed in an

enclosure providing at least IP54 protection when applied in Class I,
Zone 2 environments.

• This equipment must be powered by energy limited associated

equipment as defined in EN 50021 when applied in Class I, Zone 2

Refer to the specifications for the specific module for power consumption
and other requirements.

See XM Power Supply Solutions application technique, publication
ICM-AP005A-EN-E, for additional details.

Interconnect Limit

Total current draw through the side connector cannot exceed 3A. A separate
power connection is necessary if the total current draw of the interconnecting
modules is greater than 3A.

If the total current draw for a row of modules is greater than 3A, consider
connecting power to a module near the center of the rail, rather than at a
module on either end. Insure that there is less than 3A load in either direction
from the module where power is connected.

Wiring Requirements

Use solid or stranded wire. All XM wiring should meet the following
specifications:

Publication

GMSI10-IN017A-EN-P - May 2010

8 XM-946 EODS Relay Terminal Base

ATTENTION

• 14 to 22 AWG copper conductors without pretreatment; 8 AWG
required for grounding the DIN rail for electromagnetic interference
(emi) purposes

• Recommended strip length 8 millimeters (0.31 inches)

• Minimum insulation rating of 300V

• Soldering the conductor is forbidden

• Wire ferrules can be used with stranded conductors; copper ferrules
recommended

See the XM Documentation and Configuration Utility CD for Hazardous
Locations installation drawings. The XM Documentation and Configuration
Utility CD is packaged with the XM modules.

Grounding Requirements

Use these grounding requirements to ensure safe electrical operating
circumstances, and to help avoid potential emi and ground noise that can
cause unfavorable operating conditions for your XM system.

DIN Rail Grounding

The XM modules make a chassis ground connection through the DIN rail.
The DIN rail must be connected to a ground bus or grounding electrode
conductor using 8 AWG or 1 inch copper braid. See illustration on the
following page.

Use zinc-plated, yellow-chromated steel DIN rail (Allen-Bradley part no.
199-DR1 or 199-DR4) or equivalent to assure proper grounding. Using other
DIN rail materials (e.g. aluminum, plastic, etc.), which can corrode, oxidize, or
are poor conductors can result in improper or intermittent platform
grounding.

DIN Rail Grounding Block

24V Common Grounding

24V to the XM module must be grounded. When two or more power supplies
power the XM system, ground the 24 V Commons at a single point, such as
the ground bus bar.

If it is not possible or practical to ground the -24Vdc supply, then it is
possible for the system to be installed and operate ungrounded. However, if
installed ungrounded then the system must not be connected to a ground
through any other circuit unless that circuit is isolated externally.
Connecting a floating system to a non-isolated ground could result in
damage to the XM module(s) and/or any connected device. Also, operating
the system without a ground may result in the system not performing to the
published specifications regards measurement accuracy and
communications speed, distance or reliability.

The 24V Common and Signal Common terminals are internally connected.
They are isolated from the Chassis terminals unless they are connected to
ground as described in this manual. See Wiring on
assignments.

Bus

Transducer Grounding

Make certain the transducers are electrically isolated from earth ground. Cable
shields must be grounded at one end of the cable, and the other end left
floating or not connected. It is recommended that where possible, the cable
shield be grounded at the XM terminal base (Chassis terminal) and not at the
transducer.

DeviceNet Grounding

The DeviceNet network is functionally isolated and must be referenced to
earth ground at a single point. XM modules can not be used with an external
DeviceNet power supply. Connect DeviceNet V- to earth ground at one of
the XM modules, as shown in the illustration below.

Grounded DeviceNet V- at XM Module

Use of a separate DeviceNet power supply is not permitted. See Application
Technique “XM Power Supply Solutions”, publication ICM-AP005A-EN-E, for
guidance in using XM with other DeviceNet products.

For more information on the DeviceNet installation, refer to the ODVA
Planning and Installation Manual - DeviceNet Cable System, which is
available on the ODVA web site (http://www.odva.org).

ATTENTION

Position terminal base at a slight angle and hook over the top of the DIN rail.

Switch Input Grounding

The Switch Input circuits are functionally isolated from other circuits. It is
recommended that the Switch RTN signal be grounded at a single point.
Connect the Switch RTN signal to the XM terminal base (Chassis terminal) or
directly to the DIN rail, or ground the signal at the switch or other equipment
that is wired to the switch.

Mounting on the DIN Rail

You can also mount the terminal base to a grounded mounting plate. Refer to
the XM Module User Guide for details.

The XM-946 makes a chassis ground connection through the DIN rail. Use zinc
plated, yellow chromated steel DIN rail to assure proper grounding. Using
other DIN rail materials (e.g. aluminum, plastic, etc.) which can corrode,
oxidize or are poor conductors can result in improper or intermittent platform
grounding.

1. Position the terminal base unit on the 35 x 7.5mm DIN rail (A) (A-B
pt no. 199-DR1 or 199-DR4) at a slight angle.

2. Slide the terminal base unit over leaving room for the side
connector (B).

3. Hook the lip on the rear of the terminal base onto the top of the DIN
rail, and rotate the terminal base onto the rail.

4. Press down on the ter minal base unit to lock the terminal base on the
DIN rail. If the terminal base does not lock into place, use a
screwdriver or similar device to open the locking tab, press down on
the terminal base until flush with the DIN rail and release the locking
tab to lock the base in place.

5. Connect the wiring for the XM-946 terminal base unit as shown

base. Make sure the hook on the terminal base slides under the edge
of the terminal base unit.

4. Press down on the ter minal base unit to lock the terminal base on the
DIN rail. If the terminal base does not lock into place, use a
screwdriver or similar device to open the locking tab, press down on
the terminal base until flush with the DIN rail and release the locking

XM-946. Refer to the installation instructions for the specific
terminal base unit for its terminal assignments.

The primary 24V dc needs to be wired to terminal 0 to
provide power to XM-946 and other XM modules located on
the DIN rail. Terminal 3 should be used if a second, or
redundant, power supply is needed. Note that terminal 3
provides redundant power only to the XM-946. It does not
serve other terminal base units.
