Wiring the Transmitter to the Sensor
3.1

Overview

This chapter describes how to connect Micro Motion Model 1700 and 2700 transmitters to a Micro
Motion sensor.
Note: If you have an integral installation, this step is not required. Continue with wiring the
transmitter outputs (Chapters 4–7).
Wiring requirements between the sensor and transmitter depend on the installation type (see
)
Figure 2-1 .
• If you have a 4-wire remote transmitter installation, review the information on 4-wire cable in
Section 3.2, then follow the instructions in Section 3.3.
• If you have a 9-wire remote transmitter installation, review the information on 9-wire cable in
Section 3.2, then follow the instructions in Section 3.4.
• If you have a remote core processor with remote transmitter installation, review the
information on both 4-wire and 9-wire cable in Section 3.2, then follow the instructions in
Section 3.5.
Large electromagnetic fields can interfere with flowmeter communication
signals.
Improper installation of cable or conduit can cause measurement error or flowmeter
failure. To reduce the risk of measurement error or flowmeter failure, keep cable or
conduit away from devices such as transformers, motors, and power lines which
produce large electromagnetic fields.
