Warning.
The controller is not fitted with a switch therefore a disconnecting device such as a switch or
circuit breaker conforming to local safety standards must be fitted to the final installation.
The switch must be mounted in close proximity to the controller within easy reach of the operator
and must be marked clearly as the disconnection device for the controller.
Remove all power from supply, relay and any powered control circuits and high common mode
voltages before accessing or making any connections.
Use cable appropriate for the load currents. The terminals accept cables from 18 to 14 AWG (0.8
to 2.5mm
2
).
Always route signal leads and power cables separately, preferably in earthed (grounded) metal
conduit.
It is strongly recommended that screened cable is used for signal inputs and relay connections.
The instrument conforms to Mains Power Input Overvoltage Category 2, Pollution Degree 2
(EN601010–1). (This equipment is protected through double insulation – Class II.)
Analog / digital inputs and outputs, transmitter power supply and DC power supply are SELV
(Safety Extra Low Voltage) circuits.
All connections to secondary circuits must have basic insulation.
After installation, there must be no access to live parts, for example terminals.
Terminals for external circuits are for use with equipment with no accessible live parts only.
If the controller is used in a manner not specified by the Company, the protection provided by the
equipment may be impaired.
All equipment connected to the controller's terminals must comply with local safety standards
(IEC 60950, EN601010–1).
Note. Terminal screws must be tightened to a torque of 0.1 Nm (0.9 lbf/in.).
