Take note of safety instructions for Ex applications
Please note the Ex specific safety information which you will find on our homepage www.vega.com\services\downloads and
which come with the appropriate instrument with Ex approval.In hazardous areas you should take note of the appropriate
regulations,conformity and type approval certificates of the sensors and power supply units.Each with Ex approval is an
associated,intrinsically safe instrument and must not be installed in hazardous areas.

1Product description
Functional principle
Separators separate intrinsically safe circuits from non-intrinsi-
cally safe circuits.In general,a difference is made between gal-
vanic separation by:
lEx separators (with external energy)
lSeparators (without external energy)
Limitation of the electrical variables by:
lSafety barriers
Ex separator VEGATRENN 149AEx
The Exseparator VEGATRENN 149AEx is used as intrinsically
safe power supply for Ex approved 4…20 mA/HART sensors.
Through the auxiliary energy the sensor can be provided with
more power.The instrument ensures a galvanic separation be-
tween sensor circuit and processing circuit and hence between
Ex and non-Ex areas.The load-independent 4…20 mAcurrent
is transmitted linearly to the output.The sockets in the front en-
able HART communication with the sensor via VEGACONNECT
3.The necessary communication resistance (R=250 Ω) is al-
ready integrated in VEGATRENN 149AEx.
Product properties:
lUniversal for all passive 4…20 mA/HART sensors
lHART transmission to the output side
lSockets in the front for connection of VEGACONNECT
lSIL 2qualified

Separator type KFD0
The separator KFD0-CS-Ex1.51Pis used for intrinsically safe
power supply and signal transmission of Ex approved 4…20 mA
sensors.It is loop-powered without external energy.The instru-
ment ensures a galvanic separation between sensor circuit and
processing circuit and hence between Ex and non-Ex areas.The
load-independent 4…20 mAcurrent is transmitted linearly to the
output.However,aHART signal is not transmitted.
Product properties:
lUniversal for all passive 4…20 mAsensors
lAlso in conjunction with signal conditioning instruments with-
out own Exapproval
lLoop-powered,i.e.no additional power supply required
lMounting of the separator in Ex zone 2permitted
Fig.2:Separator type KFD0-CS-Ex1.51P
Safety barrier type 9001
The safety barrier type 9001 is used for intrinsically safe measur-
ing current transmission in ExZone 1without galvanic separation.
It is hence suitable for connection of an indicating instrument to
the non-intrinsically safe 4…20 mAoutput of a signal condition-
ing instrument.Safety barriers are also called zener barriers.
Product properties:
lUniversal use for all 4…20 mAindicating instruments
lLoop-powered,i.e.no additional power supply required

4Connecting to power supply
4.1Preparing the connection
Note safety instructions
Always keep in mind the following safety instructions:
lConnect only in the complete absence of line voltage
lIf overvoltage surges are expected,overvoltage arresters
should be installed
Tip:
We recommend VEGA overvoltage arresters B61-300
(external energy)and B62-36G(sensor supply).
Take note of safety instructions for Ex applications
In hazardous areas you should take note of the appro-
priate regulations,conformity and type approval certifi-
cates of the sensors and power supply units.
Select power supply
The voltage supply for the Ex separator VEGATRENN 149AEx
mustbe in therangeof20 …250 V AC,50/60 Hz or 20 …250 V DC.
Selecting connection cable
For power supply of VEGATRENN 149AEx,an approved instal-
lation cable with PE conductor is necessary.
The sensor or the signal conditioning instrument are connected
with standard two-wire cable to the separator.If strong electro-
magnetic interference is expected,screened cable should be
used.
Cable screening and grounding
If screened cable is used,connect the cable screen on both ends
to ground potential.In the sensor,the screen must be connected
directly to the internal ground terminal.The ground terminal on the
outside of the housing must be connected to the potential equal-
isation.
If potential equalisation currents are expected,the screen con-
nection on the separator or signal processing instrument must be
made via a ceramic capacitor (e.g.1nF,1500 V). The low fre-
quency potential equalisation currents are thus suppressed,but
the protective effect against high frequency interference signals
remains.
Select connection cable for Ex applications
Take note of the corresponding installation regulations
for Ex applications.In particular,make sure that no po-
tential equalisation currents flow over the cable screen.
In case of grounding on both sides this can be achieved
by the use of a capacitor or a separate potential equal-
isation.

5Operation
5.1Adjustment of the separators
After installation,the separators described in this product infor-
mation manual are immediately ready for operation.An adjust-
ment is not required.
5.2Adjustment of the sensor
A VEGA sensor powered via the VEGATRENN 149AEx can be
also adjusted via the VEGATRENN 149AEx.You will need a
Windows-PC with the configuration software PACTware™and
a suitable instrument driver (DTM)according to the FDT stand-
ard.For connection,the VEGACONNECT 3interface converter
with corresponding cable is required.
