Discharge the Sensor
Temperature changes which occur during shipment may result in a small electrical charge
inside the sensor crystals. This charge is harmless to humans, but may result in damage to
the electronics if the sensor is plugged in before it is discharged. To discharge the sensor,
touch a wire to each sensor connector so that the center conductor
and outside shell make contact. (See

)

Plug in Connections Inside Electronics Housing
Plug sensor extension cables onto the PC board as follows:

Connect cable A to J1.

Connect cable T to J2. (See

to locate J1 and J2.)

OUT connections are located
on the opposite side of the
board from the IN connections.
Do not use positions 3 & 4 to
connect wires.

Electrical power must be disconnected from explosion proof models before
the cover is removed. Failure to do so could result in severe personal injury
or substantial property damage.

Ensure that wiring comforms to
all applicable local and national
electrical codes and install unit(s)
according to relevant national and
local safety codes.

Make sure the power source

is turned off.
