You should plan the location of the B32 control to ensure easy
access and minimal wiring.
Select a mounting location for the control.
The interface and Input/Output enclosure can be mounted
on a wall or other stable vertical surface.
Select a location that:
r Is central to loaders that the B32 will control. Keep
the B32 Input/Output station as close as possible to the
loading stations to minimize the amount of wire needed to
connect the vacuum receivers to the control.
r Provides adequate clearance for safe operation and
maintenance. The control should be mounted at a height
that allows the operator to easily see and touch the screen.
Maintain at least 3 feet (1m) clearance in front of the con-
trol for safe access to the Input/Output enclosure.
r Provides a clean, dry, vibration-free environment.
Exposure to wide temperature variations, high ambient
temperature, power line fluctuations, caustic fumes or
excessive amounts of dust, dirt, vibration, shock and
moisture could harm performance and reduce the life of
this equipment.
r Provides a grounded source of 115 VAC power.
The three-prong power cord supplied with the B32 con-
trol requires a grounded 115 VAC outlet rated for at least
15 amp service.
Plan the power/communication cable routes.
r Review all wiring guidelines and diagrams provided
in the manuals and electrical diagrams supplied with the
B32 control and your conveying equipment before begin-
ning installation. See

.
r Keep communication wires away from sources of
static electricity. Static electricity can damage the con-
trols.Communication cables should not be run near the
material lines and hoses, which produce large amounts of
static electricity when material is conveyed. You should
use shielded cable unless you run wires through metal
conduit.
r Avoid running communication cables across power
feed lines. If you must run the cable across power feed
lines, run the cable at right angles to the lines.
