TMS THRUSTER MAIN SWITCH - REV001A
ELECTRIC CONNECTION
The command complies with EMC standards (electromagnetic compatibility) but requires correct installation to
avoid compromising its performance and that of the surronding instruments.
For this reason the TMS wires must be positioned at a distance of at least:
• 1 m away from cables that carry radio signals (except SSB radio transmitters).
• 2 m away from cables for SSB radio transmitter signals.
Follow the rules below to construct the electrical installation relative of the TMS:
• Put in a switch, to turn on and shut off the TMS (not provided); position the switch so that it can be easily
reached if it is necessary to shut-off the device to prevent dangerous situations.
• Insert a fuse on the TMS power supply line (not provided).
• Correctly size wire cross section for TMS power supply wires, based on length.
• Correctly size wire cross section for thruster power supply wires, based on length and motor power.
• Power the TMS only after verifying that all electrical connections are exact.
WARNING:
using wires of unsuitable section and not connecting correctly the terminals or the electric
couplings can result in a dangerous overheating of the connection terminals and the wires.
