2.5 On train cabling
The IMx-Rail is appropriately prepared to accept train cabling via three of the
enclosure walls, refer section
to
. The enclosure provides a
total of two entries for M20 x 1.5 glands and 19 entries for M12 x 1.5 glands for the
following functions:
•
Analogue sensor cables
•
Speed sensor (digital signal) cables
•
An Ethernet cable
•
GPS module cable
•
RS485 and relay connections
These cable entries are pre-fitted with blind plugs.
In some countries, the installer must be certified to connect equipment,
such as an IMx-Rail, to train systems.
Make sure that the power is disconnected before the installation begins.
The system power supply must be provided with an appropriately
positioned, clearly labelled full pole isolator or switch that can be used to isolate
and lock-out power from the IMx-Rail unit during installation, maintenance or
modification work. The switch must be labelled "IMx-Rail
” or similar
, with clear
identification of which IMx, if multiple units are deployed. The On/Off position
must be clearly marked.
The supply scheme should also incorporate suitable fusing or circuit breakers for
the protection of the supply cable being used. Protection for the IMx-16Plus is
provided within/by the power module.
To connect the IMx-Rail to the DC power supply, use cable of the following
standard or better:
FKLK 3 x 1.5 mm2 (16 AWG) or EKLK 3 x 1.5 mm2 (16 AWG) or corresponding,
with minimum voltage requirement 300 V and temperatur
e range of −40 to
+70 °
C (−40 to +158 °F).
