  • Page 71 2. Installation, Piping, and Wiring CAUTION • The unused electrical connection ports should be closed with an appropriate flameproof- certified plug. • Analyzers have pressurized enclosures. The cable end should be sealed in order to apply pressure to the pressurized enclosure. Otherwise, power does not supplied to the electronics section. In the CSA-Y, all wiring must be connected to the electronics section since the protection system is not provided.
  • Page 72 2. Installation, Piping, and Wiring ATEX, IECEx, NEPSI WARNING • All wiring shall comply with Local Electric Codes and Requirements. • In a hazardous area, use appropriate flameproof-certified parts for connecting cables. • All externally powered input signals into the pressurized enclosure shall be isolated by external relays controlled by the Ex px protection system(Ex px safety device). CAUTION • The unused electrical connection ports should be closed with an appropriate flameproof- certified plug. • The blind plug shall not be used with an adapter. • Analyzers have pressurized enclosures. The cable end should be sealed in order to apply pressure to the pressurized enclosure. Otherwise, power does not supplied to the electronics section.

    • In order to prevent the earthing conductor from loosening, the conductor must be secured to the terminal, tightening the screw with torque of approx. 1.2 N•m. • Care must be taken not to twist the conductor. Screw Ground Figure 2.23 Earth terminal for the GC8000 2.3.5 Connecting Signal Cables CAUTION (C) to (L) cables: Use heat-resistant cables with maximum allowable temperature of 80°C or higher.
  • Page 81 2. Installation, Piping, and Wiring NOTE • For analog input, use twisted pair cables with a common shield (a twist pitch of 50 mm or less), to avoid induction noise. Use twisted pair cables for digital signals as well. • Stranded cables are superior to single-conductor cables in the following respects: • Stranded cables are more flexible and easy to lay in a curved pit or cramped space.
