Silometer installation
There are three possibilities for installing Silometer transmitters:
•
Assembly rack for max. 12 transmitters,
•
Field housing, ingress protection 65, for max.6 transmitters,
•
Monorack housing for individual or series installation.
Rack installation
A Racksyst system can be ordered fully wired, in which case the sensors and the external
power supply only need to be wired. Planning hints can be found in Publication
SD 041/00/en, »Racksyst Assembly Racks« .
When installing in your assembly rack, or when installing with cards from other
manufacturers, fill the rack as follows (see also Fig. 2.1):
