6.7
Electrical connection and start up
NOTES!
You must observe applicable EMC guidelines when routing cables!
NOTES for UL and CSA!
Do only use copper cables!
6.7.1
Preparing cables
1.
Strip cable insulation. The cable for the signal and supply line is shielded, the cable for the
option S and the cable for LWL will not be shielded.
2.
Crimp wire-end ferrules.
6.7.2
Electrical connection
1.
Open the terminal box cover (15, Fig.1).
CAUTION!
Do not allow moisture to enter the terminal box when the cover is open!
2.
Remove the cap of the cable glands (17, Fig.1).
3.
Feed the cable into the terminal box trough the cable glands.
NOTES!
The signal cable shielding has to be connected directly to the housing via the EMC
cable gland.
To achieve an effective shielding the cable shield must also be connected in the
electrical cabinet.
4.
Tighten the cable gland using a spanner.
NOTES!
Prior to delivery cable glands and blanking plugs are tightened finger tight only. To
ensure that the terminal box is reliably sealed tighten all cable glands and blanking plugs
before starting up for the first time.
5.
Use a spanner to tighten the cable gland until the cables are securely clamped and properly
sealed.
NOTES!
Prevent lateral pulling forces acting on the cable so as not to impair the degree of
protection of the cable gland.
