6.2 EA-K-30 Electrical connection
— EA-K-30 Electrical connection
6.2.1 Supply
The power supply must be designed for the actuator. The
voltage and current must correspond with the information on
the type plate. The supply cabling must be checked before
the initial commissioning, the cable cross section in particular
must be taken into account. The valid regulations regarding
minimum values for the cable sizing must be observed!
Sample calculation (this is only an approximate value and
does not replace an exact calculation):
The power is supplied to the EA-K-30/xxx-T on the gear side.
The power can also be supplied via the chain side on the
EA-K-30/xxx-T-DA (double-sided connection). The supply
voltage is relayed internally to the opposite connection point,
this can then be used to connect another actuator (see
chapter 6.2.8 “DUO operation / parallel connection” on
page 21).
6.2.2 Supply / connection cable
It is possible to supply power to the second actuator directly
through the first actuator (DA variant) in tandem / duo
operation. The supply cable can therefore be changed into a
connection cable.
Cut the second supply cable to the desired length (plus
approx. 3 cm).
Strip the cable over a length of 18 mm and remove 4 mm
of insulation from the 5 cores.
Screw the 5 cores into the connector and secure the
cable with a cable binder (e.g. 100 x 2.5) as traction
relief.

ATTENTION
Make sure that the loops of the supply cable are
adequately sized on moving parts, taking account of the
bending radii, in order to prevent the pinching or tearing of
the supply cable.
DANGER
Connect to the power supply (24 V DC) only after checking
the entire system.
INFORMATION
We recommend performing a trial run with a suitable
mobile power supply (incl. a control device, not just a
battery). This means that it is quick and easy to respond to
malfunctions.
ATTENTION
Do not earth the electrical connection.
The actuator must only be operated with a 24 V DC safety
extra-low voltage.
Unused cores must be insulated.
