The most effective transmitter case grounding method is a direct connection to earth
ground with minimal impedance. Methods for grounding the transmitter case include:
•
Internal ground connection: The internal ground connection screw is inside the FIELD
TERMINALS side of the electronics housing. This screw is identified by a ground symbol
( ). The ground connection screw is standard on all Rosemount 2051 Transmitters.
