All control wiring must be routed away from
power wiring. If control wiring is routed
parallel to signal wiring (24vdc or less), signal
wiring isolation must be maintained. A
minimum of four (4) inches is needed to
adequately separate signal and control wiring.
If signal wire is UL recognized shielded cable,
separation can be minimized to a one (1) inch
separation.
AF-600 FP and AF-650 GP MultiPulse Panels
require no additional control wiring to operate
properly. Additional control interfacing to your
control panel can be accomplished through
the panel mounted customer terminal board.
Please reference the appropriate wiring
diagram.
2.8 Signal Wiring (24 VDC or less)
All field wiring shall have a minimum
insulation rating of 75
 C (167  F).
Size wire according to local and national
codes.
All field signal wiring must be twisted and
shielded. All shields must be grounded at one
point ONLY. It is recommended to terminate
the shield drains at the signal source. Avoid
routing signal wiring with power wiring. If
signal wiring is routed with control wiring a
minimum separation of one (1) inch is
required.
AF-600 FP and AF-650 GP MultiPulse Panels
require no additional signal wiring to operate
properly. Additional signal interfacing to your
control panel can be accomplished through
the panel mounted customer terminal board
Please reference the appropriate customer
interface diagram for signal interfacing to
your control panel
If your application requires wiring to the AF-
600 FP / AF-650 GP Drive I/O control terminal
board, Use 16 to 24 AWG wire.
Connections on the Drive I/O terminal board
should be tight enough such that a slight tug
on the wire will not result in the wire coming
partially or completely out of the terminal
board.
2.9 Miscellaneous Information
Refer to the appropriate Outline drawing for
estimated watts loss of the panel.
If your enclosure is equipped with forced
ventilation for keeping the Drive and other
components within their thermal
recommendations, the cooling fan(s) used to
ventilate your enclosure also need to be
cleaned periodically.
2.10 Inspection # 2
Prior to start-up of your drive panel inspect
the following:
 The mechanical installation for any safety
and local or national code violation.
 The electrical installation for proper
connections and any violation of local or
national code.
 Proper grounding of equipment.
CAUTION: Do not over-tighten terminal board
connectors, damage to the equipment may
occur.
CAUTION: Input pressure must be dry air or
inert gases only. Any other pressure media
will damage the transducer.
