ELECTRICAL INSTALLATION
5.0 Wiring
NOTE: Refer to "Important Installation Informa-
tion" on pages 2 & 3 prior to wiring the encoder.
Electrical connections are made to the sensor
module through a standard 1/2 inch NPT liquid tight
flexible conduit. The nipple length may be changed
to extend the outlet box if desired. Interconnection
cable recommendations are as follows: stranded
copper, 22 through 16 gage, braided or foil with
drain wire shielding 0.05 mF maximum total mutual
or direct capacitance, outer sheath insulated. Shrink
tubing may be placed over any wires without
insulation. For lengths over 100 feet, use 18 gage
or larger, to a maximum of 1000 feet. If shielded
twisted pair wire is used, do not cross channels.
Keep each pair of complementary channel outputs
together in a single twisted pair (e.g., A and A
complement).

5.1 Quick Release Connector Hood
Wiring
To install the Quick Release Connector, perform the
following steps.
1. Remove the four screws from the mating connec-
tor housing that hold the terminal block in place.
Remove terminal block from housing.
2. Insert wiring through liquid tight flexible seal and
mating connector housing. Leave enough wire
exposed to comfortably reach the terminal block.
Wire to terminal block according to wire code in
Table 1. A similar wiring list is attached to enclosure.
NOTE There are two orientations of the connec-
tor hood. The terminal block can be inserted
either way so the connector hood points up or
down. Choose the direction best for your
application.
4. Tighten Liquid Tight fitting on housing. OP-
TIONAL: In some hostile environments, seal
between connector body and
be improved by smearing a sealant (silicone
grease, etc.) on the neoprene seal of the connector.
5. Mate connector into place on sensor mount and
snap the two latches into place. If only one sensor
is being installed, ensure cover plate is installed
over other sensor hole.
