Failure to do so will allow water to enter and damage all
electronic parts.
Be sure to securely tighten all fittings to ensure a liquid-tight
seal. Failure to do so could allow water to enter the housing
and damage the camera and lens.
5. Connect the supply power wires to the left side or the top
side of the terminal block provided. Strip no less than 6 mm
(0.25 in) and no more than 8 mm (0.31 in) of insulation
away from the wire. Be sure not to nick the wires.
6. Cut the camera power cord, leaving enough cable to allow
connection to the terminal block. Strip no less than 6 mm
(0.25 in) and no more than 8 mm (0.31 in) of insulation
away from the wire. Be sure not to nick the wires. Connect
these wires to the left side or the top side of the terminal
block.
7. On heater and heater/blower units, make sure the heater and
fan wires stay connected to the terminal block.
6.9
Video Coax Connection
WARNING: Only use the cables specified under
"INSTALLATION, Cable Requirements" for wiring
of the video coax connection.
1. For LTC 9483 and LTC 9480 versions install a 1/2-in NPT
fitting into the remaining hole in the rear cap. For
LTC 9488 versions install a 3/8-in NPT fitting through the
center small hole of the rear cap.
2. Route the video coax cable through one of the fittings
installed in step 1 or one of the feed-through fittings in the
base.
3. Attach BNC connector to the coax and connect it to the
camera. Pull any excess wire out of the housing and tighten
the fitting to 8.5 N-m to 9.0 N-m (75 in-lb to 80 in-lb).
This torque rating is approximately 1 to 1 1/2 turns past the
point the fitting starts to grip the wire. Failure to do so will
result in water damage to all electronic parts.
Be sure to securely tighten all fittings to ensure a liquid-tight
seal. Failure to do so could allow water to enter the housing
and damage the camera and lens.
Use of "drip loops" is recommended on the wiring outside of
the rear end cap.
6.10 Lens Wiring
WARNING: Only use the cables specified under
"INSTALLATION, Cable Requirements" for wiring
of the lens.
1. Install the last 1/2-in NPT fitting into the remaining hole in
the rear cap. Zoom lenses can only be installed into
LTC 9488 housings.
2.
If installing a zoom lens
, insert the lens control cable
through the last fitting at the rear of the housing. Attach
the lens wiring to the lens mating connector and connect it
to the lens. If mating connector is not available, connect
directly to the lens cable. Pull any excess wire out of the
housing and tighten the fitting to 8.5 N-m to 9.0 N-m
(75 in-lb to 80 in-lb). This torque rating is approximately 1
to 1-1/2 turns past the point the fitting starts to grip the
wire. Failure to do so will result in water damage to all
electronic parts.
NOTE
:
See specification on lens cord for correct plug connection.
Be sure to securely tighten all fittings to ensure a
liquid-tight seal Failure to do so could allow water to
enter the housing and damage the camera and lens.
2.
If using a pan/tilt with a feed-through cable
, insert the
camera/lens function cable in through the left fitting at the
rear of the cradle. Wire the functions, as described above or
as needed.
Use of "drip loops" is recommended on the wiring
outside of the rear end cap.
6.11 Camera/Lens Adjustment
1. Verify camera and lens operation before final assembly of
the cradle into the housing. Adjust the camera focus and
iris as necessary. See individual camera instructions.
6.12 Final Assembly
1. Use the plugs or fittings provided to plug any remaining
holes in the rear cap.
2. Reinstall the cover. Align the bottom of the cover ribs with
the top of the base. Slide the cover onto the base. Make sure
the seal is not folded over or torn. Use silicone grease to
lubricate the seals if necessary.
