Wiring possibilities (Fig. 3 and 4)

• All commercially available generators with NPN, PNP, NAMUR 

 

and SINUS signals can be connected.

• 

An adjustment to the generator type regarded is provided internally 

in the device, optionally this can be done in factory or according to 

setting instructions.

• 

The control command of the relay contacts is not saved, i.e. the  

upper or lower limit of the limit value being exceeded causes a  

status change of the positive-guided output contacts.

Due to the specific design of the EBW devices as standstill 

monitor, it must be observed that a control command does 

not trigger a restart interlock, i.e. if necessary, a special ON 

or RESET signal must be otherwise realised in the electrical 

safety circuit, if this is required prior to a restart.

For the definition of the mouvement limit value to be monitored, 

the device setting versions furthermore must be observed. 

In addition to that, it must be ensured that any incidental or 

manipulative alteration of the frontal set-up potentiometer or the 

change-over switch of the EBW-AZ devices to EN 292 is preven-

ted or does not lead to a hazardous situation. If the customer is 

unable to fulfil this condition, the use of the EBW-WB devices, 

which have no external setting devices, is recommended.

Opening the enclosure

Necessary to adjust the solder straps located on the circuit board  

of the device (Fig. 6).

To this effect, carefully separate the bottom part of the enclosure  

from the upper part by means of a suitable tool.

Do not open the device when live!

When the enclosure is open, the electrostatic discharge 

requirements must be respected and observed. After the 

setting is completed, the enclosure must be closed again.

Only touch the components after electrical discharge!

Adjust the solder straps J1...J4 to the sensor (Fig. 7)
