Page 7: Installation Considerations
UT3 Series Safety Considerations Please follow all applicable local and national codes to ensure maximum safety of the equipment and personnel. The installation and operational environment must be maintained per the latest revision of these codes. You are responsible to determine the codes to be followed and to verify the compliance of equipment, installation, and operation with the latest revision of these codes. -
Page 8: Installation Considerations
UT3 Series Installation Considerations Our products have been designed and tested for operation in the most demanding industrial environments. Modern solid-state industrial controls are complex electronic equipment that operate at low levels of voltage and current, co-existing with components that operate at much higher levels of power. The difference in operating power characteristics between the high and low power control devices creates the possibility of unwanted signals being generated, thus causing interference. -
Page 9: Electrical Considerations
UT3 Series controls (motors, starters, solenoids, etc.) should be housed separately or at the farthest point when enclosed within the cabinet. We recommend that the unit has a minimum clear space of 2" on all sides for adequate ventilation as shown in the image on the right. Electrical Considerations This section is designed to provide you with a very basic understanding of electrical noise and how to keep it away from CPUs. -
Page 10: Shielding From Rfi
UT3 Series Shielding from RFI Shielded Cables Power cables, I/O cables or wiring, and communication cables should all be separate so that they do not couple the conducted RFI on any of these wires/ cables. Another path for RFI into the PLC is through its RS232 port. Hence, the cables to this port must be shielded properly. - Page 11 UT3 Series Cabinet Wiring The wiring of the UT3 unit to the “field outside the cabinet must be by design. The wiring cannot be random in order to get the various points of the cabinet and the “field electrically connected. Below are some general rules that apply in most situations: o Provide a separate power source to electronic controls and keep this power bus away from any I/O power.

Page 24: Data Logging Overview
UT3 Series Data Logging Overview The UT3 Panel offers a flexible Data Acquisition capability. You can acquire and save the data for one or more tags defined in the panel. The acquired data along with a time stamp is saved in CSV file format in the USB stick or the MicroSD card, depending on how the schedule is set. - Page 25 UT3 Series Click on Add/Elit buttn tt lispeaa tti ““ll “A Stiluei itaies.d The "Add DAQ Schedule Details" box will appears allowing you create a new schedule for the panel. Schedule names can be either be Tag based or a Constant (user defined name).
- Page 26 UT3 Series Types of Schedules Time based – at regular Intervals Allows you to store the tag value at regular time intervals, anywhere from every 1 second to every 1000 hours. Time based – at Specifc Times Allows you to store the value of a group of tags up to 10 specific times. You may always edit / delete a specified time.
