  • Page 9: Mounting

    Mounting General instructions Mounting options VEGATOR 122 is designed for carrier rail mounting (top hat rail 35 x 7.5 according to DIN EN 50022/60715). Due to its protection rating of IP20, the instrument is suitable for mounting in switching cabinets. It can be mounted horizontally and vertically.
  • Page 10: Connecting To Power Supply

    Voltage supply The data for power supply are specified in chapter " Technical data". Connection cable The voltage supply of VEGATOR 122 is connected with standard cable according to the national installation standards. The sensors are connected with standard two-wire cable without shielding. If electromagnetic interference is expected which is above the test values of EN 61326 for industrial areas, shielded cable should be used.
