Connecting the temperature sensor

● The temperature sensor is connected to the signal connector together with the speed
● For the version without speed encoder, the temperature sensor is connected at the terminal
● The motor has a reserve temperature sensor, which is also connected at the auxiliary
Risk of electric shock
The insulation of the temperature sensors for the winding monitoring with respect to the
winding is implemented according to the requirements for basic insulation. The temperature
sensor connections are located in terminal boxes, safe to touch - and have no protective
separation. This is the reason that in the case of a fault, a hazardous voltage can be present
at the measuring sensor cable. When touched, this can result in death, severe bodily injury
and material damage.
● When connecting the temperature sensor to external temperature monitoring devices,

Connecting to a converter

Selecting and connecting the cable
● Use Motion Connect cables or symmetrically constructed, shielded cables to connect the
● The shield is connected at both ends, at the motor and converter. Keep unshielded cable

have good electrical conductivity. Braided shields made of copper or aluminum are well
suited.
