Hardware Installation
Correctly install 5200A system components and peripheral devices to ensure accu-
rate data collection and reliable operation. First, determine what monitor, control,
and alarm functions the 5200A system will perform. Because system components
are wired to the 5200A instrument, it is important to determine where and how
components will be installed and configured. Preparing a system schematic (figure
3.1) is helpful.

Hardware installation steps (not all steps required for all applications):
Step 1 - install 5200A instrument
Step 2 - locate and install probe/cable assembly
Step 3 - ground 5200A
Step 4 - wire power
Step 5 - wire relays (output devices)
Step 6 - wire aux inputs
Step 7 - wire a network of 2 - 32 instruments
Step 8 - install and wire communication equipment
Step 9 - connect probe assembly
See Chapter 4 “Configuring 5200A Systems” for directions on programming 5200A
instruments.
Installation and Wiring
Tools and supplies needed for hardware installation:
Phillips-head screwdriver to remove 5200A front panel to access I/O board •
and lower board assembly
necessary tools for cutting mounting holes in mounting brackets (rail •
mount) and/or control panel (panel mount)
5/32” Allen wrench (panel mount only) •
electric drill and bits for mounting 5200A (panel or rail) and for drilling •
rubber grommets in bulkhead fittings
small flat-head screwdriver to terminate wires on the I/O board’s plug- •
gable terminal strips
wrench to tighten the bulkhead fittings following system component •
wiring
tweezers to replace gasket in YSI 5561 probe •
wire strippers •
distilled water for mixing DO membrane electrolyte solution •
contactors may be required for relay wiring; see • contactor wiring - page

Optional accessories for hardware installation:
surface mount hardware (included) •
rail mount hardware •
panel mount hardware •
weather shield hardware •
serial to ethernet device •
wiring for network wiring •
wiring not supplied with components and/or peripheral devices •
Step 1 Install 5200A
Select a mounting location and method to mount the 5200A.
Location Considerations
The 5200A must be located:
above any level where water damage can occur •
away from extremely high or low temperature sources •
away from vibrating surfaces •
at least two (2) feet (.7 m) from any high voltage conduit •
away from electromagnetic, radio, AC motor, transformer, or antennas •
so the front panel can be fully opened and serviced •
so system component wires are run as specified in this manual and ac- •
cording to all local applicable electrical codes
