4. CONNECTIONS
4.1 Detector
Switch off the evaluation unit before connecting the scintillation counter,
Open the screws and remove the connection box cover to expose the connec-
tion area.
The detector is connected to terminals
1
and
2
on the evaluation unit via a 2-wire (2 x 1 mm
2
)
shielded standard cable. This cross-section al-
lows a maximum length of 750 m. When install-
ing the connection cable, make sure that water
cannot get into the connection room via the ca-
ble. With ambient temperatures >70°C, the in-
stalled cable has to be temperature-protected.
Following connection, check that the connection
housing is carefully closed and the cable bush-
ing properly sealed.
Figure 21: Cable connections at detector
If a resistance thermometer is connected, the cables coming from the
Pt 100
are
passed through the second cable bushing to terminals
3
and
4
.
For equipment installed in the Ex-area, please observe the special re-
quirements for the cable and the preparation of the connection wires.
The detector LB 44... must be used for installation in the Ex-area. The de-
tector LB 54.. may only be used for non Ex-applications.
The evaluation unit must always be installed outside the Ex-area.
A special transmission technique ensures that interference is suppressed. How-
ever, do not run measurement cables together with other power cables.
