Sensor cable mounting:
To prevent negative effects on the functioning of the VIBROCONTROL 18xx caused by noise
voltages, please lay shielded sensor cables and power supply separately.
Cable break, cable short-circuit and sensor overload:
For a detailed description of how a VIBROCONTROL 18xx device reacts to a breakage of the
sensor cable or an overload of the sensor signal, please read section 6.17 of this manual.
Ingress protection (IP):
The VIBROCONTROL 18xx has an ingress protection of IP20. The VIBROCONTROL 18xx must
be mounted in a control cabinet with an ingress protection of at least IP54. The control cabinet
should be installed in accordance with local and national rules and regulations.
Mounting:
Mount the VIBROCONTROL 18xx on a 35-mm DIN-rail inside the control cabinet. Mount the device
vertically. Make certain to leave enough space between the device and the top and/or bottom of the
control cabinet. Only in this way will the air circulation be sufficient to avoid excessive heating of
the device.
Electromagnetic compatibility (EMC)
The VC-18xx complies with the relevant requirements of the
Electromagnetic Compatibility Directive 2014/30/EU. The EMC has been
tested according to EN 61326-1, with the reduction of the requirement for
static electricity (ESD). When handling the VC-18xx, pay close attention to
protective measures against electrostatic discharge. This applies in
particular to the area of the ventilation slots. Electrostatic discharges in this area can destroy the device.
