5 Connecting to voltage supply

5.1 Preparing the connection

Generally not 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 OPTISWITCH 3000 C 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 the "Technical data" in

the "Supplement".

OPTISWITCH 3000 C 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 steps

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 the opening lever of the terminals downward, 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
