Installation
Signal wiring
Do not run signal wiring in conduit or open trays with power wiring or near heavy electrical
equipment. It is important that the instrument cable shield be:
Trimmed close and insulated from touching the transmitter housing
Connected to the next shield if cable is routed through a junction box
Connected to a good earth ground at the power supply end
For 4-20 mA HART output, the signal wiring may be grounded at any one point on the signal
loop or may be left ungrounded. The negative terminal of the power supply is a recommended
grounding point.
For 1-5 Vdc HART Low Power output, the power wires may be grounded at only one point or left
ungrounded. The negative terminal of the power supply is a recommended grounding point.
Transmitter case
Always ground the transmitter case in accordance with national and local electrical codes. 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 3051 transmitters.
Refer to Figure 2-22.
