Connecting The Input Power; Connecting Moisture Probes - GE moisture.iq User Manual

Chapter 1. Installation

1.9.2 Connecting the Input Power

To connect the input power, simply plug the power cable into the receptacle next to the ON/OFF switch at the
lower left corner of the back panel (see Figure 8 on page 15). DC wiring is shown in Figure 9 below.
WARNING! If the power mains switch on the unit remains accessible to the user after installation, a
disconnect device is not required. However, if the installation blocks access to the power mains switch,
compliance with the EU's Low Voltage Directive (IEC 61010) requires an external power disconnect
device such as a switch or circuit breaker. The disconnect device must be marked as such, clearly visible,
directly accessible, and located within 1.8 m (6 ft) of the unit.

1.9.3 Connecting Moisture Probes

The moisture.IQ uses M-Series and Moisture Image Series probes to measure moisture. If you need to connect a
different probe type, please contact our technical support department. If you ordered one or more M-Series
probes with the moisture.IQ, BHGE has entered the necessary probe setup data on a pre-assigned channel.
IMPORTANT: See the Calibration Data Sheets, shipped with the probes, to connect the probes to their
corresponding channels. If a probe is connected to the wrong channel, the meter will display
incorrect data.
Probes are identified on the Calibration Data Sheet by a serial number. The serial number is also engraved on
the hex nut of the probe, as shown in Figure 11 below.
The Moisture Image Series probe does not require any pre-programming, because it stores all the necessary
setup data in its electronics module. Therefore, you can install a Moisture Image Series probe on any
available channel. After you install the probe, you must activate the probe on the installed channel, as
described in "The Probe Configuration Screen" on page 60. Proceed to the following sections to properly
connect your moisture probes.
