Abstract

See full text

A process measurement instrument comprises a process adaptor for mounting to a process vessel or the like and operatively associated with a sensing element for sensing a process variable and including plural electrical conductors. An instrument housing includes a control circuit. A connector assembly is operatively disposed between the instrument housing and the process adaptor for removably connecting the instrument housing to the process adaptor. The connector assembly comprises a first connector including a cylindrical connector body having an offset boss with a first multi-pin wire connector. A second connector includes a cylindrical connector housing, receiving the cylindrical connector body, having an offset bore, receiving the offset boss, and having a second multi-pin wire connector, mateable with the first wire connector, for selectively electrically connecting the control circuit to the sensing element with the offset boss and offset bore ensuring proper alignment of the first and second multi-pin wire connectors.
