4.0. Installation
The Envirco Control Systems are engineered for easy installation. However testing either
before permanent installation or as the system is installed is strongly recommended.
The Control Console can be wall installed in the cleanroom or at a remote location, however,
the maximum recommended distance from the beginning to the end of the daisy chain should
not exceed 800 linear feet.
4.1.
Network Wiring
Note:
Cabling shall be provided and installed by others. Network cable requirements
should be specified based on:
A network is constructed by simply daisy-chaining MAC 10 XL installed Envirco Phase
Controllers or “Smart” MAC 10 installed DC Controllers from the Control Console.
Specific network wiring information can be found in the Envirco MAC 10 XL Control
System or MAC 10 DC Control System operation manuals.
Network cable requirements should be specified based on:
•
Distance between nodes
•
Total network length
•
Noisy electrical environment
•
Environmental conditions
•
Mechanical issues
Once the Control Console has been connected to at least one phase controlled MAC 10
XL or “Smart” MAC 10 installed DC Controller, power can be applied. The Control
Console will automatically scan the network.
Each Phase Controller or DC Controlled “Smart” MAC 10 FFU should be given a unique
address within the Control Console’s available address range (determined by model
number.) The addresses do not need to be contiguous, but contiguous addressing will
make operator functions easier.
