LS AI 4-20 mA HART CHARM specifications

Installation notes

This CHARM requires a CHARM Terminal Block.
This CHARM supports 2-, 3-, and 4-wire devices.
Support for 3-wire devices requires either the CHARM 3-Wire AI Fused Injected Power Terminal Block, or the CHARM Terminal Block and the LS 24 VDC Power CHARM.
In 3-wire and 4-wire configurations, removing the LS AI 4-20 mA HART CHARM from its terminal block does not disconnect field power from connected devices. In order to disconnect field power from connected 3-wire and 4-wire devices, you must either remove the fuse from the CHARM 3-Wire AI Fused Injected Power Terminal Block or remove the LS 24 VDC Power CHARM from its terminal block.
Emerson recommends 4-wire over 3-wire configurations because 4-wire configurations are less susceptible to noise.
If you are using the LS 24 VDC Power CHARM for 3-wire or 4-wire devices, refer to the LS 24 VDC Power CHARM specifications for information about wiring and removing field power.
