On completion of the installation the flameproof threads
should be inspected to ensure that they are clean and that
they have not been damaged during installation. Ensure the
O-ring seal is in place and undamaged.
When fitting the flameproof cover ensure the thread is
engaged correctly. Fully tighten the cover all the way, ensure
no gap is visible between the cover and base of the beacon
enclosure.
7) Selection of Cable, Cable Glands, Blanking
Elements & Adapters
When selecting the cable size, consideration must be given
to the input current that each unit draws (see section 11), the
number of beacons on the line and the length of the cable
runs. The cable size selected must have the necessary
capacity to provide the input current to all of the beacons
connected to the line.
The entries are 2-off M20 x 1.5 thread & 3-
off ¾” NPT thread
If a high IP (Ingress Protection) rating is required then a
suitable sealing washer must be fitted under the cable glands
or blanking plugs.
For use in explosive dust atmospheres, a minimum ingress
protection rating of IP6X must be maintained.
For use in explosive gas atmospheres, a minimum ingress
protection rating of IP54 must be maintained.
NPT plugs should be greased before insertion.
For high ambient temperatures the cable entry temperature
or the cable branching point temperature may exceed 60ºC
and therefore suitable heat resisting cables and cable glands
must be used, with a rated service temperature of at least the
values stated below:
8) Cable Connections
The units have 2-off M20 x 1.5 threaded entries and 3-
off ¾”
NPT x 14 threaded entries.
Electrical Connections are to be made into the terminal
blocks using solid or stranded wire, sizes 0.5-2.5mm2 / AWG
20-14. Wire insulation needs to be stripped 6-7mm. Wires
may be fitted securely with crimped ferrules. Terminal screws
need to be tightened down with a tightening torque of 0.4 Nm
/ 3.5 Lb-in.
See section 5 of this manual for access to the enclosure.
9) Wiring
A 4-way terminal block is provided on the DC beacons for
power. There are 2-off +ve, 2-off
–ve terminal and an internal
Earth boss.
