INDUSTRIAL PROCESS FIELD DEVICE WITH ENERGY LIMITED BATTERY ASSEMBLY

摘要

An industrial process field device (200) has a housing (202) with a wall (204) . The wall has a feedthrough opening (207) between a battery compartment (208) and an electronics compartment (206) . A feedthrough connector (230) seals the feedthrough opening and includes a power connector (234,236) connected to industrial process field device electronics (212) . A battery assembly (216) includes a battery housing with a battery connector (244) , and includes a battery (242) and an energy limiter (240) connected to the battery connector. The battery connector mates with the power connector to energize the industrial process field device electronics. A seal (250) seals the mating connection of the power connector and the battery connector.
