5.4 Hazardous area output wiring
The following notes and diagrams are designed to be used as a guide for wiring the Model 1700 or 
Model 2700 outputs for hazardous area applications.
5.4.1 Hazardous area safety parameters
The proper barrier selection will depend on what output is desired, which approval is applicable, and 
many installation-specific parameters. The information that is provided about I.S. barrier selection is 
intended as an overview. Refer to barrier manufacturers for more detailed information regarding the 
use of their products. Application-specific questions should be addressed to the barrier manufacturer 
or to Micro Motion.
WARNING
Hazardous voltage can cause severe injury or death.
To reduce the risk of hazardous voltage, shut off the power before wiring the 
transmitter outputs.
