1.3 Communication Related
1.3.1
Decide on mounting position
for input module WDI100
IP20: Typically in a cabinet, (access needed only for
commissioning and trouble shooting), distance to
planned antenna max. 5m antenna cable length
1.3.2
Decide on field bus to be
used / select suited
FieldBusPlug
The WDI100 input module may be connected to
different field busses by choosing the matching ABB
FieldBusPlug
1.3.3
Decide on amount of input
modules
One WDI100 Input module supports up to 120 sensors,
max. up to 3 WDI are allowed in one application
1.3.4
Decide on antenna position
The antenna should be able to "see" most WPS
sensors (70° viewing angle of antenna)
Several WDI: The antennas shouldn´t face each other
directly (if distance < 5m)
1.4 Order Components
2. Mechanical Mounting
2.1
Mounting of power supplies
four M8 threads on backside
2.2
Mounting of mechanical coil
support (mechanical part)
Support structure, fixtures for coil wire
- plastic tubes/conduits (e.g. mounted on aluminium
support structures/profiles)
- or use glass fibre reinforced tubes/conduits which are
self-supporting and can carry the wire inside)
2.3
Mounting of sensors/sensor
Heads
3. Electrical installation
3.1 Power Supply Related
3.1.1
Mounting of mechanical
primary loop support
(electricians part)
Install cable into e.g. plastic tubes/conduits, glasfiber
reinforced tubes are self-supporting due to their
mechanical strength,
- keep a distance to metal objects (reduces losses)
- keep other wires separate (if running parallel by at
least 15cm)
3.1.2
Mounting of cable
ducts/channel(s) for power
supply wiring
for primary loop wire going to the loop (twisted!), grid
connection, 2nd PE, sync-wire
3.1.3
Installation of primary loops
See "Planning and
Installation
Guidelines"
Chapter 1.2
carefully observe loop direction (arrow on cable),
connect to power supply; parallel loops have to have
the same orientation of current/arrows. Observe arrows
also when connecting to power supply.
3.1.4
Installation of sync wire(s)
twisted pair wire (if shielded do not connect shields !),
connect output to input of next device
3.1.5
Installation of grid connection
and PE
-Joint connection to one switch/fuse for all supplies of
one setup (4/6A at 230/120V per supply)
- 2nd PE connection necessary!
3.2 Communication Related
3.2.1
Mount Input Module WDI100
DIN rail with 13mm height (break mounting hoods on
base plate for smaller DIN-rails or use mounting hoods
(4M4 screws)??
3.2.2
Mount antennas
Distance of 0.5m to each other, use L and R polarized
ones, max. distance to a sensor 5m.
3.2.3
Mount and connect antenna
cables
3.2.4
Connect Input Module to
24 V DC
(max. 0.8A)
3.2.5
Plug-in FieldBusPlug at
WDI100
3.2.6
Install and ensure supply of
FieldBusPlug
see FieldBusPlug
technical
documentation
The FieldBusPlug needs 24 V feeding via the bus wire,
typically coming from the PLC.
