Attention
for Safty[ Planning the system ][ Handling the Terminal Box ]The Terminal Box for the Remote Sensor isan enclosure which connects the Detectors
with the Transmitter of the Remote Sensor
and transmits the detected signals.
The Terminal Box should only be used forthis purpose.
Plan the system to work safely if the TerminalBox should be damaged.

Make the correct wiring and connect as
referred to the wiring diagram of this manual.
Wiring errors may cause system failure.
Make sure that the power is turned off, whenstart the installation process.
Never take the device apart or modify.
Dispose of the device as an industrial waste.

Important● Wiring should be done before mounting the Terminal Box on the machine.
If the wiring is done after mounting, Cable Glands can not be tightened properly.
● Since the protection Class of the Terminal Box is IP65, protection with a cover is required
if the Terminal Box will be exposed to water.
● Use the device properly as refer to in the following points.
If tightening of the Cable Gland is done improperly, it may have influence on its watertight quality.

Mounting Procedure and Hints【Connection of the Transmitter and the Detector】● Measure of Stripping Cables① Strip outer sheathes of each cable at the required point.
② Strip insulations of cores.

● Measure of Stripping Insulations /Position of Tightenig<figure 1>

a<figure 1-a>
● Fastening Position of Cable
Make sure that outer sheath of cable is positioned insideof the Terminal Box properly in tightening cable.

● Mounting Cable Gland٨ Fixing of the Cable Gland <figure 2>
Make sure that a projection of cable-holder must be
adjusted on a groove of cabel gland base.
Waterproofness is spoiled when not attached correctly.

Insert the blank plug(s) supplied with the Terminal Box
into any unused cable entrance(s) of the Cable Glandand stop it.
① Insert the blank plug.
② Tighten the cable gland.
(Refer to Tightening of the Cable Gland)● Connecting to terminal block <see P.4>
In accordance with the connection diagram, connect thecore to each appropriate terminal.
Tightening torque value of terminal screw is 0.5Nm.

● Measure of putting on the lid <figure 6>

3● Measure of putting on the lid of the Terminal Box<figure 6>
Tighten screws indicated on the diagram .
Be sure all the screws are tightened equally. When thescrews are not tightened with equal strength, the lid
might be warped and the packing in the lid will not cling
to the Terminal Box.

【Installation for Terminal Box】
① Attach the Terminal Box fasten with 2 Allen screws.
Size; M4
Length ;longer than 15mm
② To avoid unfastening of screws, application of adhesive
for tightening screws is recommended.

[ Replacement of Cable Glands ]Replace the sealing rings of Cable Glands when you
change sensors in maintenance to avoid decline of its
watertight quality.
