4.10.2 BOS Sensor with External RTD's via J-Box

The BOS sensor is commonly specified without an integral RTD for gas phase applications. An external RTD
can be placed directly into the process and is preferred for accurate temperature measurement under various
process conditions (e.g. process with fast moving temperature, low heat capacity (dry gas) or TProcess -
TAmbient is large). The external RTD can be connected through the J-Box (Fig 16) or through the Rear
(Wiring) Terminal.

4.10.3 BOS Sensor with External RTD via Rear (Wiring) Compartment

For OXYvisor installations in Zone 1, where the model is selected with Agency Approval "1", the BOS
sensor (as standard) is not allowed to be installed with integral RTD. An external RTD will be the standard
recommended installation. For this case, the RTD can be wired through the Rear (Wiring) Compartment as
shown in Figure 17.
