8.5 
I/O Device Conduits 
Rigid steel conduit should be used for wiring runs to all I/O devices, 
especially runs over 50 feet (15.2 m). Each I/O module is equipped 
with a single 1 to 1-1/4 inch (2.5 to 3.3 cm) knockout to accommodate 
conduit for I/O device wiring. Additional knockouts are provided for 
power and Petro-Net™ communication wiring conduits.
 
 
To prevent interference, all wiring to and from the VSmart Module must 
be  protected  by  rigid  steel  conduit.  Probe  and  sensor  wires  must  be 
alone  in  their  conduits.  DO  NOT  run  the  wiring  from  other 
manufacturers’ probes, sensors or alarms.
