5.1 Mechanical mounting
Ensure stable and non-vibrating installation! In house mounting and operation. Do not install the
system in an explosion proof zone.
Do not install the detection coil and the electronic unit in the vicinity of interference fields (large
electric motors and frequency converters!) The distance depends on the power consumption of the
motor or of the frequency converter (value for orientation: 5 m).
Mount the control cabinet by using the provided bores. I.e. at a wall or frame (dimensions are shown in
the outline drawings). Pay attention to good stability, as the weight of the control unit is approx. 4 kg.
Never install the electronic unit in other switchgear cabinets, because this may lead to interference
effects. (E.g. from contactor controls)!
Cable lengths may only be modified after consultation with "Sesotec". Use only original cables. Lay
the connecting cable in fixed installation apart from other cables (e.g. fix it with nailing clips or lay it
in a cable duct).
If several metal detector systems are used, the distance of the detection coils must not be less than
2m, if these coils stand side by side. If the coils are arranged opposite to each other, the distance
must not be less than 10 m. These values apply to large systems; for smaller systems the distanc-
es may be reduced to 50 cm. If, for reasons of space, these distances cannot be observed, please
contact Sesotec service!
Do not install the equipment in such a way that operation of the mains cut-off switch is hindered in
any way!
5.2 Connection of the equipment
In order to meet CE conformity all cable outside of the housing has
to be shielded. The shields must be grounded immediately after the
cable gland.
