Installation Instructions
Step 1: Planning
To plan for D20 and MP5 installation, become acquainted with the following:
▪
Power and connectivity at the site of the installation
▪
Know what is in the product boxes
▪
Identify the tools necessary to bring onsite for the installation
AVAILABILITY OF SERVICES AT THE SITE
There are several critical site services that need to be confirmed by the installer:
1.
Power:
For 120VAC operation, you will need a 120VAC (NEMA5) receptacle to plug in the controller. For
240VAC, you must remove the power cable and install the appropriate conduit and fittings (½" trade size
conduit fitting).
The maximum power rating should be correct for the location’s ambient temperature.
Note:
Ambient temperature rating refers to the relationship between the label power rating,
the application ambient operating temperature, and the actual power capacity after
required derating if necessary.
2.
Communication:
For 4-20mA operation, use 8-conductor 22 AWG cabling.
3.
Mount:
The controller should be installed where the power disconnect device for the controller is
easily accessible. A minimum of 6.3 in (16 cm) of clearance is required for the controller door to
open.
4.
Orientation:
The controller should be installed upright and level to a panel or vertical/horizontal
pole.
5.
Site safety:
There must be sufficient clearance around the installation to make connections and to perform
maintenance tasks. The installation must be in a location with minimal vibration.
Warning:
Externally connected equipment must have an applicable country
safety standard assessment.
Explosion hazard:
This manual is only for installation of the unit in a non-
hazardous location. Use only the instructions and approved control drawing
provided in the hazardous location installation manual for installation in
hazardous locations.
