5.2 Connecting SITRANS LR250
SITRANS LR250 (FOUNDATION FIELDBUS)
Operating Instructions, 01/2014, A5E32221411-AB

Wiring instructions
1. Strip the cable jacket for approximately 70 mm (2.75") from the end of the cable, and thread
the wires through the gland. (If cable is routed through conduit, use only approved suitable-
size hubs for waterproof applications.)
2. Connect the wires to the terminals as shown: the polarity is identified on the terminal block.
3. Ground the device according to local regulations.
4. Tighten the gland to form a good seal.
5. Close the lid and secure the locking screw before programming and device configuration.
Note
•
Foundation Fieldbus (H1) must be terminated at both extreme ends of the cable for it to
work properly.
•
For optimum EMC protection, it is recommended that the FF H1 cable shield be
connected to ground at every node.
•
Please refer to the Foundation Fieldbus System Engineering Guidelines (AG-181)
Revision 2.0, for information on installing FF (H1) devices available from:
Foundation Fieldbus (
http://www.fieldbus.org/)
•
If a Weidmüller or other current limiting junction box is connected to this device, please
ensure that the current limit is set to 40 mA or higher.
