Notes
1. Cable should be shielded with single twisted pair.
The cable should be shielded with single twisted pair.
2. Cable shields should be connected to both the analyzer and the DCS. If this is not
possible, cable shields should be tied to the chassis at each 3050-OLV. If this is not
possible, tie the shield at the PC or DCS to chassis and remaining shield to the chassis
through a 0.1 mF @ 500V capacitor
Cable shields should be connected to both the analyzer and the DCS.
3. The 3050-OLV signal common is connected to earth ground. If the analog output is also

Analyzer power must be removed when connecting or disconnecting the 4-20 mA signal.
The 4-20 mA loop circuit must have a load resistance of between 100 and 500 ohms or
malfunction may occur. If a loop check is performed, the resistor must be placed in series
