Wiring
General
The following general guidelines apply to all wiring discussed in the following paragraphs.
•
Wire size range is 22-12 AWG stranded; recommended wire size range is 18-14 AWG.
•
All wiring should be multi-stranded annealed copper with insulation that meets the
requirements of all applicable electrical codes; recommended shielded twisted pair cable for
Analog Input and 4-20 mA Analog Output to reduce the possibility of noise pickup.
•
Keep all wire runs as short and direct as possible. Long wire runs are vulnerable to picking
up stray electrical noise. Also, long wire runs are costly, but remote mounting may be
necessary because of area classification, convenience, or other extreme field conditions.
•
Use care when running signal wiring near to or crossing conduit or wiring that supplies
power to motors, solenoids, lighting, horns, bells, etc.
•
Avoid bringing T6050 wiring into junction boxes which contain other wiring.
•
AC power wiring should be run in a separate conduit from the T6050 I/O wiring.
•
CHECK ALL WIRING RUNS THAT ARE TO BE CONNECTED TO THE T6050.
All field device wiring to and from the T6050 is connected on the enclosure integrated terminal
blocks at the sides of the unit. The T6050 terminations are shown in the figure below.
