MECHANICAL ASSEMBLY
The unit has been designed for panel-mounting: Drill a 29x71 mm hole,
insert a tool and fix it in place with the brackets provided. Do not assemble
the instrument in excessively humid or dirty locations since it is designed to
be used in locations with normal pollution levels. Always make sure that the
area next to the cooling openings of the tool is adequately ventilated.
ELECTRICAL CONNECTIONS
Warning! Always switch off machine before working on electrical con-
nections. The instrument has screw terminals for connecting electrical
cables with a maximum diameter of 2.5 mm2 (only one conductor per ter-
minal for power connections): for terminal capacity, see instrument
label.The relay contacts are voltage-free. Do not exceed the maximum cur-
rent allowed. For higher loads, use a suitable contactor. Make sure that the
power voltage complies with the device voltage. The sensor has no connec-
tion polarity and can be extended using an ordinary bipolar cable (note that
extending the probe may affect the electromagnetic compatibility (EMC) of
the instrument: special care must be used when wiring). Probe cables, power
supply cables and the TTL serial cable should be kept separate from power
cables.
