Connection Procedure - Vega VEGASON 62 Operating Instructions Manual

Cable screening and
grounding
VEGASON 62 • Two-wire 4 ... 20 mA/HART
If shielded cable is required, we recommend connecting the cable
screening on both ends to ground potential. In the sensor, the cable
screening must be connected directly to the internal ground terminal.
The ground terminal on the outside of the housing must be connected
to the ground potential (low impedance).
In Ex systems, the grounding is carried out according to the installa-
tion regulations.

Connection procedure

Proceed as follows:
1. Unscrew the housing lid
2. If a display and adjustment module is installed, remove it by turn-
ing it to the left
3. Loosen compression nut of the cable gland and remove blind
plug
4. Remove approx. 10 cm (4 in) of the cable mantle, strip approx.
1 cm (0.4 in) of insulation from the ends of the individual wires
5. Insert the cable into the sensor through the cable entry
6. Lift the opening levers of the terminals with a screwdriver (see
following illustration)
7. Insert the wire ends into the open terminals according to the wir-
ing plan
Fig. 17: Connection steps 6 and 7
8. Press down the opening levers of the terminals, you will hear the
terminal spring closing
9. Check the hold of the wires in the terminals by lightly pulling on
them
10. Connect the shielding to the internal ground terminal, connect the
external ground terminal to potential equalisation
11. Tighten the compression nut of the cable entry gland. The seal
ring must completely encircle the cable
12. Screw the housing lid back on
The electrical connection is finished.
