Instruction Manual C200
2.6 Power supply connection
There are three modules available from the IMBus series to supply the column gauge with power :
1. IMB-ps2 : ( Part No. F121 020 )
Switched-mode power supply (SMPS) featuring wide range
voltage input from 100 to 240 VAC, 45 to 60 Hz
2. IMB-dc1 : ( Part No. F121 040 )
DC to DC converter for input voltage range from 9 to 32 VDC
3. IMB-acc : ( Part No. F121 030 )
Rechargeable battery (accu-pack) module for battery-operated systems.
The module allows quick battery replacement. Rechargeable batteries
with capacities of 1850 / 4000 and 5500 mAh are available.
( Example : C200 with 2 inductive probes and a 4000 mAh battery pack
can operate for approx. 12 to 15 hours )
First read the sticker information on the fitted power
supply module and then check whether the module is
suitable for your mains voltage respectively DC voltage.
Use the enclosed power cable to connect the
IMB-ps2
to the mains outlet.
Important !!! Insert device plug into grounded
outlet only
Example 2 : connecting 5 column gauges
The five column gauges are linked together via
four
IMB-cas
adapter cables. The cables are
always fitted in the bottom positions, as shown
in the illustration. The measurement inputs are
passed on from the thinner adapter section to-
wards the thicker adapter section. When using
several
IMB-cas
adapter cables make sure that
the thinner adapter section is fitted in the first
position, with the thicker adapter section of the
arriving cable directly above it. The power
supply module of column 1 supplies
columns 1, 2 and 3 with power. The power
supply module of column 4 interrupts the further
power supply from column 1 and supplies col-
umns 4 and 5 with power. The measuring mod-
ule in column 1 makes available the measure-
ment inputs
( P1 to P4 )
for columns 1 and 2.
The measuring module in column 3 interrupts the
connection to the measurement inputs from col-
umn 1 and makes available its own measure-
ment inputs at columns 3, 4 and 5.
