Electrical installation
4.2.1
Electrical installation of the VersaPoint station
Electrical installation of the VersaPoint station includes the following:
– Connecting the bus system to the VersaPoint station
– Connecting the supply voltages for the VersaPoint station
Carry out electrical installation for the VersaPoint station according to the GFK-2736 user
manual or the VersaPoint system manual for your bus system. Please also observe the
specifications in the documentation for the bus coupler used.
4.2.2
Electrical installation of the safety module
The supply voltages are supplied at a bus coupler and/or a power terminal and are supplied
to the safety module via the potential jumpers. Therefore, the electrical installation of the
safety module only involves connecting the actuators.
The actuators are connected via VersaPoint connectors.
•
Wire the connectors according to your application. For the terminal point assignment,
please refer to "Terminal point assignment" on page 3-3.
For wiring, proceed as follows:
•
Strip 8 mm off the cable.
•
Push a screwdriver into the slot of the appropriate terminal point (Figure 4-6, detail 1),
so that you can insert the wire into the spring opening.
GE Intelligent Platforms recommends the SZF 1 - 0.6X3.5 screwdriver.
•
Insert the wire (Figure 4-6, detail 2). Remove the screwdriver from the opening. This
clamps the wire.
WARNING: Electric shock/unintentional machine startup
Prior to electrical installation, disconnect the power to the system and make sure that it
cannot be switched on again unintentionally.
Make sure installation has been completed before switching the power back on.
The system may only be started provided the system does not pose a hazard.
During installation, always observe the instructions in "Electrical safety" on page 1-2.
Take measures to prevent the incorrect connection, polarity reversal, and manipulation
of connections.
VersaPoint wiring is normally done without ferrules. However, it is possible to use
ferrules. If using ferrules, make sure they are properly crimped.
