Connection to a DALEMANS control unit
The connection of the DAT 420 gas detector to a DALEMANS control unit requires a 2-wire cur-
rent loop. The electrical connection must be made with respect to polarity between the detector
and the control unit.
To connect the DAT 420 gas detector to a DALEMANS control unit:
▪
Loosen the locking screw of the junction box cover using the 1.5 mm hex key and completely
turn the cover counterclockwise to unscrew it.
▪
Loosen the cable gland cap nut, insert the cable into the cable gland and tighten.
Connect the wires to the 2-position terminal block according to the diagram below.
▪
The cable wires must be stripped and plugged so that the gap between the wire insulation
▪
and the metal edge of the terminal connection does not exceed 1 mm distance.
▪
Equipotential bonding may be provided using either the internal or the external connection.
For the external connection, the bonding conductor should be at least 4 mm².
▪
Screw the cover back onto the junction box and hand tighten ¼ turn.
▪
Put the locking screw of the cover back in place and tighten with the 1.5 mm hex key.
▪
The cable shielding or screening must be grounded at the control unit.
