3.3 Wiring
Proper grounding and wiring of all electrical equipment is important to help ensure the optimum
operation of the IXrouter and to provide additional electrical noise protection for your application.
Power Supply
The IXrouter is supplied with 12 or 24 VDC from an external power source. Be sure you use a safety
Low Power Supply (LPS) in accordance with clause 2.5 of UL/IEC 60950-1 Ed2. Standard: certified for
60°C and for altitudes up to 2000m. The safety LPS power supply is not part of the delivery.
Image below shows the pin-out for the connector.
The IXrouter comes with a female 4-pin plug-in connector with screw connection (type: Weidmuller
BL 5.08/04/180 SN BK BX). The optimal wire diameter is 1.5mm² (22AWG - 12AWG).
