Electrical connection<br />

Measuring system with <strong>VEGAPULS</strong> <strong>54K</strong> on active PLC<br />

Two-wire technology, power supply from active PLC.<br />

Output signal 4 … 20 mA (passive).<br />

Measured value display integrated in the sensor.<br />

Optional external indicating instrument (can be mounted up to 25 m away from the sensor in<br />

Ex area).<br />

Adjustment with PC, HART ® handheld or the adjustment module MINICOM (can be plugged<br />

into the sensor or into the external indication instrument).<br />

1) If the resistance of the processing systems<br />

connected to the 4 … 20 mA signal output is less<br />

than 200 Ω, a resistor must be connected to the<br />

connection cable during adjustment to get a loop<br />

resistance of 250 Ω up to 350 Ω.<br />

The digital adjustment signal would otherwise be<br />

severely damped or short-circuited due to<br />

insufficient resistance of the connected processing<br />

system. Digital communication with the PC<br />

would not be ensured.<br />

2) 4 … 20 mA passive means that the sensor<br />

consumes a level-dependent current of<br />

4 … 20 mA. The sensor reacts electrically like a<br />

varying resistor (consumer) to the PLC.<br />

3) 4 … 20 mA active means that the PLC delivers a<br />

level-dependent current of 4 … 20 mA. The PLC<br />

reacts electrically like a current source.<br />
