Installation
2.3.2 Power supply
Connections
The transmitter requires between 9 and 32 VDC to operate and provide complete functionality.
The DC power supply should provide power with less than 2% ripple. A fieldbus segment
requires a power conditioner to isolate the power supply filter and decouple the segment from
other segments attached to the same power supply.
All power to the transmitter is supplied over the signal wiring. Signal wiring should be shielded,
twisted pair for best results in electrically noisy environments. Do not use unshielded signal
wiring in open trays with power wiring or near heavy electrical equipment.
Use ordinary copper wire of sufficient size to ensure the voltage across the transmitter power
terminals does not go below 9 VDC. The power terminals are polarity insensitive. To power the
transmitter:
1. Connect the power leads to the terminals marked “Bus,” as shown in Figure 2-8.
2. Tighten the terminal screws to ensure adequate contact. No additional power wiring is
necessary.

2.3.3 Surges/transients
The transmitter will withstand electrical transients encountered through static discharges or
induced switching transients. However, a transient protection option (option code T1) is
available to protect the 848T against high-energy transients. The device must be properly
grounded using the ground terminal (see Figure 2-8).
2.4 Grounding
The 848T transmitter provides input/output isolation up to 620 V rms.
Note
Neither conductor of the fieldbus segment can be grounded. Grounding out one of the signal
wires will shut down the entire fieldbus segment.
