Kai, as per your mail above a 1M resistor paralleled with 1.1....22nF capacitor is used, although it is for long running cables , but will it be beneficial to shunt the sensors floating terminal towards metallic PE, with this scheme.

This scheme can be useful when having RS485 signal lines like it's done in PROFIBUS applications. But for small analog signals this coupling between signal ground and PE can inject bad HF ground noise into the signal path as well. So, many analog sensors don't have this sort of coupling between signal ground and the metallic housing (PE) of sensor.

I totally agree with Kai here. The common problem we see so often, including in this thread, is that the original poster is looking for pre-boxed solutions without beginning to understand the rhyme or reason for what is going on inside the package!!!
