[ 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 andtransmits the detected signals. The Terminal
Box should only be used for this purpose.

Make the correct wiring and connect as referredto the wiring diagram of this manual.

Plan the system to work safely if the Terminal
Box should be damaged.

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.

Connection of the Transmitter to the Terminal Box

Connecting to Terminal block

Connect the Transmitter to the Terminal Box in accordancewith the following procedure.
Measure of strip cables (Fig. 1-a)
1. Strip outer sheathes of cable.
2. Strip insulations of cores.
Fastening position of cable (Fig. 1-b)
Make sure that outer sheath of cable is positioned insideof the Terminal Box properly in tightening cable.
Mounting of Cable <fig. 2>
Put a cap and sealing ring on cable, then insert the cableto the body.
Put a cap on the Cable Gland and tighten it with aspanner. ( Spanner caliber : 17mm )Applicable cable diameter : 5.0...8.0mm
Tightening torque : 6Nm
The cap can be shut up tightly to the body.
Replace the sealing rings of Cable Glands when you
change Transmitter in maintenance to avoid decline of its
watertight quality.
Sealing ring Code : 991995008
Type number : KBC-F2/E150P8

In accordance with the connection diagram, connect the core to each appropriate terminal.
<Note>
Press the button with slotted screw driver (width of edge : 2.6mm) and connect the core.
Insert core to reach terminal sufficiently.
( If a core was inserted insufficiently, core may come out or cause short with adjoining cable. If a core wasinserted exceedingly, the core cannot be connected sufficiently because of terminal catching insulations.)

Fix the Box and Installing the Lid of the Terminal Box
Fix the Terminal Box with three M5 Allen screws (length : longer than 20mm).
Fit the lid on the Terminal Box horizontally and close the lid smoothly or not to damaged thread of the lid,then insert and fasten it tightly. (Fig. 3)

Wiring to Connector
In accordance with the wiring diagram bellow, connect the wire of detectors to connectors.
