5 Connecting to voltage supply

5.1 Preparing the connection

Generally note the following safety instructions:

l

Connect only in the complete absence of line voltage

Connect the power supply according to the following diagrams.

Take note of the general installation regulations. As a rule,

connect VEGAVIB 55 to vessel ground (PA), or in case of

plastic vessels, to the next ground potential. On the side of the

instrument housing there is a ground terminal between the

cable entries. This connection serves to drain off electrostatic

charges.
The data for power supply are stated in chapter "Technical

data" in the "Supplement".

VEGAVIB 55 is connected with standard cable with round

cross section. An outer cable diameter of 5 ... 9 mm (0.2 ...

0.35 in) ensures the seal effect of the cable gland.
If cable with a different diameter or wire cross section is used,

exchange the seal or use an appropriate cable connection.

5.2 Connection procedure

Proceed as follows:
1 Unscrew the housing cover
2 Loosen compression nut of the cable entry
3 Remove approx. 10 cm (4 in) of the cable mantle, strip

approx. 1 cm (0.4 in) insulation from the ends of the

individual wires

4 Insert the cable into the sensor through the cable entry
5 Lift the opening levers of the terminals with a screwdriver

(see following illustration)

6 Insert the wire ends into the open terminals according to

the wiring plan

7 Press down the opening levers of the terminals, you will

hear the terminal spring closing

8 Check the hold of the wires in the terminals by lightly

pulling on them

9 Tighten the compression nut of the cable entry. The seal

ring must completely encircle the cable
