The above-mentioned components are positioned according to a
typical standard layout. Using the layout in "Figure 5" as a refer-
ence, dene the approximate position in which each component of
the system will be installed.
Note 1 If the power supply cable is longer than 30 m, a cable with
larger cross-sectional area (3 x 2.5 mm
2
) must be used
and a safety earthing system must be installed near the
automation.
Note 2 If the cable is longer then 30 m, up to maximum 40 m, it
is necessary to use a cable with a greater cross-sectional
area (2 x 1 mm
2
).
Note 3 These two cables can be replaced by a single 4 x 0.5 mm
2
cable.
Note 4 Before making the connection, verify that the output is
programmed on the basis of the device to be connected
(refer to the chapter “PROGRAMMING“).
a
The cables used must be suited to the type of envi-
ronment of the installation site.
a
When laying the pipes for routing the electrical ca-
bles, take into account that any water deposits in
the junction boxes may cause the connection pipes
to form condensate inside the control unit, thus
damaging the electronic circuits.
a
Before proceeding with the installation, prepare the
required electrical cables by referring to "Figure 5"
and to that stated in the "TECHNICAL SPECIFICA-
TIONS" chapter.
