EnviroNET Quick Start Guide
3.0 Wiring the terminal block
3.1 Running the twisted pair wires through the gland
To run the twsited pair wires through the gland:
1.
Locate the glands that the twisted pair wires should run through.
2.
You may unscrew the gland to allow more flexibility when threading the wires. To unscrew the gland,
either by hand or with a Crescent® (adjustable) wrench, turn the gland to the left until it is loosened.
3.
Carefully thread the wires through the gland from the outside into the EnviroNET.
Note
The brass glands on the bottom panel of the EnviroNET can properly seal cables with an outer diameter
between 3mm and 8mm.
3.2 Connecting the twisted pair wires to the EnviroNET
To connect the twisted pair wires to the EnviroNET:
1.
Run the twisted pair wires from outside of the EnviroNET through the unscrewed glands (on the right) to
the inside of the unit.
2.
Connect the appropriate wires to the appropriate slots in the terminal block. There should be one wire per
gland. Follow the wiring diagram that is on the inside of the EnviroNET door. The terminal block is also
labeled with the numbers.
3.
Be sure to leave a little slack on the wires so that they are not stressed or pulled too tightly. Also, make
sure that the twisted pair wires are secured tightly in the terminal block.
4.
To ensure that the cables are properly secured in the gland, tighten the gland by turning the loose pieces
all the way to the right using a Crescent® (adjustable) wrench.
Note
The black plugs for the brass glands on the bottom panel of the EnviroNET
should not
be removed.
