Installation

Additionally, electrical and instrumentation standards require a local means of removing
power from the product. The instrument is supplied with a power on/off switch that is
located inside the instrument enclosure. To remove relay power from the
instrument, an external customer-supplied 5A fused switch or a 5A breaker is
required.

In hard-wired electrical applications, the power and safety ground service drops for the
instrument should be no longer than 6 meters (20 feet) unless metal conduit is used to
shield the AC power wiring. The wire should be 18 AWG.

In applications where power cords are allowed by local electrical codes and power surges
and transients are not a great concern, a sealing-type strain relief and power cord with
three 18 gauge conductors (including a safety ground wire) can be used. Refer to

Figure 10

for strain relief assembly. The length of the power cord must not exceed

3 meters (10 feet).

Wiring the instrument

Connect the unpowered wires to the instrument power terminal as follows:

1. Strip the outside insulation of each wire back ¼-inch. Refer to

Figure 14 on page 23

.

2. Connect the three wires to the terminal using the information in

Table 3

and

Figure 11 on page 21

.

3. Ensure the voltage setting is correct and supply power to the instrument.
