Section 2.6
Field Wiring
Connections
Consider the following when wiring your system:
General
 Power and output wiring must be in accordance with Class 1, Division 2 wiring
methods, Article 501-4(b) of the National Electric Code, NFPA 70, and in
accordance with the authority having jurisdiction.
 The analog common (COM) is not connected to earth ground inside the module.
All terminals are electrically isolated from the system.
 To ensure optimum accuracy for voltage type outputs, limit overall cable
impedance by keeping all analog cables as short as possible. Locate the I/O
system as close to your voltage type sensors or actuators as possible.
 Digital and analog power must be supplied by an Isolated Secondary Limited
Energy Low Voltage source.
 Use Belden™ 8761, or equivalent, shielded wire.
