Use of the system eliminates connecting a loom of individual wires to the controller's many screw terminals. The inputs and outputs of each controller are easily and neatly routed through individual ribbon cables to a central area, where they can all be conveniently interconnected as needed. Default system configuration is prewired into the motherboard, and any custom modifications in configuration can be easily implemented at this single location.
Installation is fast, neat, clean and reliable.
The four rows of screw terminals on the back of the Yokogawa controller are arranged at different levels, relative to the back of the unit. Four different lengths of standoffs are included in the YS170 Adaptor System to bring the terminals all to one plane for connection to the Adaptor Board. The power input terminals L and N, and the grounding terminal GND are not connected to the adaptor, allowing direct access to these terminals. Installers must re-use the original Yokogawa terminal screws. For additional information on the Yokogawa YS170 Connection Adaptor System please email us.
