Operator panel
Ferrite core
Mounting plate in the cabinet
Power supply
24 V DC
The mounting clamps of the operator panel do not provide a secure grounding
connection between the panel and the device cabinet, see 1 in drawing above.
1. Connect a wire, that is sized correctly according to local electrical codes,
between the quick-connect terminal connector on the operator panel and the
chassis of the panel, see 2 in drawing above.
2. Connect a wire or grounding braid, that is sized correctly according to local
electrical codes, between the chassis of the operator panel and the closest
grounding point on the door, see 3 in drawing above.
3. Connect a strong but short grounding braid between the door and the device
cabinet, see 4 in drawing above.
4. Twist the cables onto the 24 V DC feed, see 5 in drawing above.
2 turns around the ferrite core provide 4 times the suppression of 1 turn.
3 turns around the ferrite core provide 9 times the suppression of 1 turn.
Connect a wire or grounding braid, that is sized correctly according to local
electrical codes, between the chassis of the operator panel and the closest
grounding point.
