Chapter 1: Introduction
Correctly supporting and routing cables
Properly supporting and routing the cables helps avoid electromagnetic interference and wire damage.
Rigid conduits up to 1 inch (25.4mm) can be used for connecting to the EDGE .
Cable connectors
WARNING
Use watertight compression cable glands rated IP66 for each cable used.
WARNING
Use silicone to seal the cable gland rated IP66 if more than one cable is use in the
same cable gland.
WARNING
The warranty is void if the product enclosures are not sealed correctly and the
installation does not respect the manufacturer recommendations.
WARNING
Make sure all cables enter through the bottom of the plastic enclosure. Do not make
holes on the top or on the sides of the enclosures. Be careful not to damage the
electronic cards located inside the enclosure when drilling holes into the bottom of
the enclosure.
NOTICE
The use of flexible tube with water and dust tight connectors at both ends is
acceptable.
Cable support
Support the cables with clips or cable trays whenever possible to avoid damage at the connection points.
Cable routing
NOTICE
Never run low voltage (24V and less) wires like communication wires, inputs or
sensors wires in the same conduit as a High Voltage (Power) wire.
When low voltage cables run parallel to high voltage cables (120/230/380 VAC), place them at a distance
of at least 12 inches (300 mm) from each other to avoid electromagnetic interference.
If low voltage cables cross high voltage cables, ensure they cross at an angle of 90° to minimize electro-
magnetic interference.
WARNING
Do not use rigid conduits over 1 inch (25.4mm) for the EDGE Bin Scale.
