Connecting
Safety notes for connection
For all devices
WARNING
If auxiliary power is required, check that it corresponds with that on the nameplate and with the test certification valid for
your country.
CAUTION
Incorrect measurement values due to incorrect grounding
It is not permissible to ground the device using the "+" connection. This can lead to malfunctions with permanent damage
to the device.
● If necessary, ground the device using the "-" connection.
General explosion protection
WARNING
Risk of explosion
Non-compliance with the stipulations and laws during connection and installation increases the risk of explosion due to
improper use.
When connecting and installing, follow only the test certifications, stipulations and laws applicable in your country in order
to avoid the risk of explosion.
For example, for hazardous areas these are:
● IEC 60079-14 (international)
● National Electrical Code (NEC - NFPA 70) (USA)
● Canadian Electrical Code (CEC) (Canada)
● EN 60079-14 (earlier VDE 0165, T1) (EU)
● Ordinance on Industrial Safety and Health (Germany)
WARNING
Explosion protection
Connect the device to the equipotential bonding.
Free cable ends are not permitted in hazardous areas. Use suitable protection types, e.g., flameproof enclosure Ex "d" or
increased safety Ex "e", to protect the free cable ends.
For shielded cables in hazardous areas, note that only end is permitted to be grounded. Install a potential equalising cable
if grounding on both ends is required.
WARNING
Cable glands
The cables must be matched to the cable glands. If you use the cable glands M20 x 1.5 and ½-14" NPT, which can be
ordered separately, only the cables having a diameter of 6 to 12 mm must be laid into the device.
After installation, make sure that the cables are positioned securely and that the seals are in the correct position.
Type of protection "nA", "nL", "ic"
In the case of devices with type of protection "nA", "nL" and "ic" (Zone 2), only use cables having a diameter of 8 to 12 mm
owing to the required tensile strength, or use a suitable cable gland in case of smaller diameters.

SITRANS P500 with HART
A5E02344532-02, 09/2010 9
CAUTION
Cable damage
Insulation on cables can be damaged if they are used in elevated ambient temperatures. For this reason, if cables are to be
operated in an ambient temperature T ≥ 60 °C, use heat-resistant cables approved for an ambient temperature at least
20 K higher.
Also, ensure that you use appropriate cables for operation in low temperatures.
WARNING
The inlet openings for the electrical connections must be sealed. For this purpose, use only cable glands or plugs that are
suitable for the type of protection that is required.
Special explosion protection
WARNING
Intrinsically safe circuits
Only connect the device to certified intrinsically safe circuits. These circuits must comply with the technical data indicated
on the nameplate or in the certificates and approvals (e.g., EC type-examination certificates).
If the circuits do not comply with the information in the certificates and approvals, the safety required for the approval is
longer guaranteed.
Cables for use in hazardous areas in Zones 1 and 2 or 20, 21 and 22 must satisfy the requirements for having a test
voltage ≥ 500 V AC applied between the conductor/ground, conductor/shield and shield/ground.
Note
To improve the reliability:
● Install the signal cable separately from cables with voltages > 60 V.
● Use cable with twisted strands.
● Stay away from large electrical systems.
● Use shielded cable to guarantee the full specification according to HART.
● Connect a load resistor of at least 230 Ω into the signal circuit in series in order to guarantee fault-free HART
communication. When power supply isolators are used for HART transmitters, e.g. SITRANS I, a load resistor is already
installed in the device.
Connecting the device
Procedure
1. Unscrew the cover of the electrical cable compartment.
This side of the housing is marked "FIELD TERMINALS".
2. Insert the connecting cable through the cable gland.
3. Connect the device to the existing protective bonding circuit.

"Intrinsically safe"
If a non-conforming supply unit is used, the "fail-safe" type of protection will no longer be effective and the approval
certification will be invalid.
Instructions on commissioning
Note
To obtain stable measured values, the transmitter needs to be allowed to warm up for five minutes or so after the supply
voltage is switched on.
The operating data must correspond to the values specified on the nameplate. If you switch on the auxiliary power, the
transmitter operates.
The following commissioning cases are typical examples. Depending on the system configuration, configurations different
from those listed here may be useful.
Following commissioning, the transmitter is immediately ready for use.
The adjustable measuring span corresponds to the information on the nameplate. If the device is factory-set to user-specific
values, the start of scale value and full scale value are stated on the tag plate.
If need be, you can change the parameters by simple user operations on the device even during commissioning.
