3.5 Connections

Detailed information about connection locations and functions will be found in chapter
11, Circuit Diagram.

3.5.1 To screw terminal

Panel unit and I/O units are provided with keyed screw terminals for cables with an
area between 0.25 and 1.5 mm
connection. The cable screen must be connected to the cabinet wall using EMC. It
should be noted that the screen must continue right up to the screw terminal.
The installation should comply with the IP54 (NEMA 12) protective standard.
Bend unused conductors backwards and attach them to the cable using a clasp, for
example. In order to prevent interference, ensure that such conductors are not con-
nected at the other end of the cable (antenna effect). In environments with much inter-
ference, disconnected conductors should be grounded (0 V) at both ends.

3.5.2 To connectors (option)

Industrial connectors with 4x16 pins for contact crimping (complies with DIN 43652)
can be found on the left-hand side or front of the cabinet (depending on the customer
order) See Figure 30 and Figure 21.
In each industrial connector there is space for four rows of 16 conductors with a max-
imum conductor area of 1.5 mm
the shield to the case.
The manipulator arm is equipped with round Burndy/Framatome connectors (customer
connector not included).
Bend unused conductors backwards and attach them to the cable using a clasp, for
example. In order to prevent interference, ensure that such conductors are not con-
nected at the other end of the cable (antenna effect). In environments with much inter-
ference, disconnected conductors should be grounded (0 V) at both ends.
When contact crimping industrial connectors, the following applies:
Using special tongs, press a pin or socket on to each non-insulated conductor.
The pin can then be snapped into the actual contact.
Push the pin into the connector until it locks.
Also, see instructions from contact supplier.
A special extractor tool must be used to remove pins from industrial connectors.
When two conductors must be connected to the same pin, both of them are pressed into
the same pin. A maximum of two conductors may be pressed into any one pin.
