… 6 Installation
… External position sensors
Note
To connect the EDP300 Remote Sensor, a cable with the
following specifications needs to be used:
• 3-wire, cross-section 0.5 to 1.0 mm²
• shielded, with at least 85 % coverage
• Temperature range up to at least 100 °C (212 °F)
The cable glands must also be approved for a temperature range
up to at least 100 °C (212 °F). The cable glands require a
mounting for the shielding and strain relief for the cable in
addition.
ABB optionally offers a cable gland and cable for the EDP300
Remote Version.
B EDP300 Control Unit for remote position sensor
In this version the positioner is supplied without a position
sensor.
The following points should be observed during installation:
• Housing 1 (EDP300 Control Unit) contains the electronics
and pneumatics and is mounted separately from the
actuator.
• The remote position sensor is mounted on the linear
actuator or rotary actuator. Follow the operating
instructions for the remote position sensor for
mechanical mounting!
• Electrical connection is carried out as described in
