Connections, General
Warning.
The power supply earth (ground)
must
be connected to ensure safety to personnel, reduction of the effects of
RFI interference and correct operation of the power supply interference filter.
Caution.
The metal braid in the conductivity cell connecting cable
must not
be earthed, or allowed to touch earthed
components, and must be cut back to the insulation at the conductivity cell end.
Information.
•
Earthing (grounding)
– stud terminal(s) is fitted to the analyzer case for bus-bar earth (ground) connection – see Fig. 6.8 (wall-
/pipe-mount analyzers) or Fig. 6.10 (panel-mount analyzers).
•
Cable lengths
– the integral cable may be extended using a suitable junction box, but the total cable length must not exceed
50m (137.5 ft) for cells with a constant of <0.1 or 100m (275 ft) for cells with a constant of 0.1.
•
Cable routing
– always route signal output/conductivity cell cable leads and mains-carrying/relay cables separately, ideally
in earthed metal conduit. Use twisted pair output leads or screened cable with the screen connected to the case earth stud.
Ensure that the cables enter the analyzer through the glands nearest the appropriate screw terminals and are short and direct.
Do not tuck excess cable into the terminal compartment.
•
Cable glands & conduit fittings
– ensure that the NEMA4X/IP66 rating is not compromised when using cable glands, conduit
fittings and blanking plugs/bungs (M20 holes). The M20 glands accept cable of between 5 and 9mm (0.2 and 0.35 in.) diameter.
•
Relays
–the relay contacts are voltage-free and must be appropriately connected in series with the power supply and the
alarm/control device which they are to actuate. Ensure that the contact rating is not exceeded. Refer also to Section 6.3.1 for
relay contact protection details when the relays are to be used for switching loads.
•
Analog output
– Do not exceed the maximum load specification for the selected analog output range
.
Since the analog output is isolated, the –ve terminal
must
be connected to earth (ground) if connecting to the isolated input
of another device.
