2 Installation
Installation of the SLC-220 system includes three major steps. First, the sensors and the
SLC-220 unit must be installed in their respective locations. Then, the interconnecting cables
should be wired. Finally, configuration and calibration of the system components should be
performed.
Prior to the calibration procedure, fully install the sensor that has to be calibrated. Instructions and
procedures for system configuration and calibration are described in the next chapters.
NOTE: For EMC compatibility, ferrites should be installed on the power and sensor/s cables.
Refer to Appendix D.
2.1 Sensor Installation
The sensors should be placed and installed in accordance with installation instructions specific to
each type of sensor. Please refer to the appropriate Sensor User Guide.
2.2 Mounting and Wiring the SLC-220
The SLC-220 unit should be mounted in a dry, shaded location, and should have the inside of the
enclosures easily accessible when opening the cover.
For a 100 - 240 VAC system, refer to the following SLC-220 Wiring Diagram: DWGW SLC 003 5.
For a 12 / 24 VDC system, refer to the following SLC-220 Wiring Diagram: DWGW SLC 004 2.
Refer also to mechanical drawings A SLC 0020, A SLC 0021 and A SLC 0030, and when
applicable refer to the NEMA 7 / Exd enclosure drawing/s.
If Safety Barriers are required (hazardous Area installation) refer also to Appendix B in Sensor
User Guide, to drawing DWGV2200012 that shows the summary of ITS certificate No.
Ex01E2023.
The IP65 / NEMA 4 enclosure has a transparent cover with two latches on the right side and
hinges on the left side. After opening the transparent cover there is access to the LCD with touch
screen (if installed), installed on the front panel. Access to the boards and wiring connections is
easy: Lift the front panel with a finger inserted into the hole on the right side of its edge (the
hinges are on the left side).
