4 Installation
The EDS 8000 can be mounted directly via the pressure connection or indirectly on a
hydraulic block using a hose or a minimess line
(for torque value, see Chapter 9 - Technical specifications).
For optimum alignment, we recommend connecting the EDS 8000 mechanically using a
rotating adapter (for Mechanical Accessories see Chapter 12.2).
The electrical connection must be carried out by a qualified electrician according to the
relevant regulations of the country concerned (VDE 0100 in Germany). The housing of the
pressure switch must be properly earthed. When fitting into a hydraulic block, it is sufficient if
the block is earthed via the hydraulic system. When installing with a minimess hose, the
housing must be earthed separately (e.g. with a screened cable).
Caution:
The EDS 8000 must be fitted using a suitable open-end wrench (across flats
27) on the hexagon nut of the pressure connection.
Do not install the EDS 8000 by gripping the housing, as this would damage the
housing or the entire instrument.
Additional installation suggestions which, from experience, reduce the effect of
electromagnetic interference:
•
Make line connections as short as possible
•
Use screened cabling (e.g. LIYCY 4 x 0.5 mm²)
•
The cable screening must be fitted by qualified personnel subject to the ambient conditions
and with the aim of suppressing interference
•
Keep the unit well away from the electrical supply lines of power equipment, as well as from
any electrical or electronic equipment causing interference
