Typical fixed installation topologies
The SPM Flex gas detector has flexible installation options to allow the user to
select the one most suitable for a specific application� The detector is supplied
with weather-sealed connectors for both power and Ethernet, and with a third
port sealed� A third connector for communications is installed (for relays or
4-20 mA), or any of the ports can be replaced with appropriate connections in
accordance with local codes (allowing the user to wire directly to the terminal
block)� Install the detector near a dedicated circuit breaker�
CAUTION
!
•
The safety of any system incorporating the SPM Flex gas detector is the
responsibility of the assembler of the system�
•
Position a permanently-installed SPM Flex gas detector so that it does not
interfere with access to the dedicated circuit breaker�
Electrical connection is made via conduit directly to ports or via the connector
(see Figure 1 on page 10)� The terminals used are suitable for conductors of 24
to 14 AWG (0�5 to 1�8mm Dia�)� The use of 16 AWG (1�5 mm dia�) conductors is
recommended�
