If you use a little RS485 Tx/Rx chip at each end, then that'll absorb 7v of ground offset without further ado. The DS3695A is a bit current hungry, and is only half duplex. More suitable would be something like: SN65LBC180P Full duplex 5 mA, 30 nS pulse width, No Enables, 8-pin (=> good to 10 Mb/s) Balanced transmission between modules reduces EMI, and increases EMI tolerance. Termination is 120 ohms - dead simple to use.
