MONITORING SOLUTION ENERGY INSTALLATION IMPORTANT THE INSTALLATION INSTRUCTIONS ARE ONLY FOR THE AMS01 READER. IT IS ASSUMED THAT SAW TEMPERATURE SENSORS AND PARTIAL DISCHARGE PROBE ANTENNAS HAVE BEEN CONFIGURED AND INSTALLED. WARNING PROFESSIONAL INSTALLATION REQUIRED. INSTALLATION AND CONFIGURATION SHOULD BE PERFORMED ONLY BY USERS WHO ARE TECHNICALLY COMPETENT AND AUTHORIZED TO DO SO.
MONITORING SOLUTION ENERGY UNPACKING 1.5.1 PHYSICAL DIMENSIONS Unit in mm. Figure 5: Reader dimensions views DIN RAIL MOUNTING CAUTION ENSURE THAT THE LOW-LEVEL COMPARTMENT WHERE THE READER IS MOUNTED IS SUFFICIENTLY VENTILATED TO PREVENT OVERHEATING. THE DEVICE MUST BE ELECTRICALLY GROUNDED FOR EMC COMPLIANCE. The reader is designed for installation on a grounded 35 mm DIN rail.
MONITORING SOLUTION ENERGY 1.6.1 READER EMPLACEMENT The reader is intended to be installed in the low voltage compartment of the switchgear. The other electrical assets are recommended to be weather protected in an enclosed location. The reader is required to be installed within a maximum distance of 10 meters from the antennas, corresponding to the maximum length of the antenna cable for SAW temperature sensors and partial discharge measurement.
MONITORING SOLUTION ENERGY WIRING POWER The reader power connector is a 2-pin male connector. This screw connector supports from 16 to 26 AWG wires. It is recommended to use connector ferrules on the termination of electrical conductors. 1.7.1 INPUT POWER The reader operates at 24VDC nominal with a total power consumption of 6 Watts.
MONITORING SOLUTION ENERGY 1.7.2 RELAY OUTPUT Output relay connections are recommended to be at a minimum of 16 AWG and tin-coated, with a soft drawn copper of ASTM B8, Class B stranding, 300V rated. Insulation shall be EP (Ethylene Propylene) or EPCP (Ethylene Propylene Chlorosulfonated Polyethylene compound).
MONITORING SOLUTION ENERGY COMMUNICATION CONNECTIONS The components are used to connect Modbus devices, energy communication systems and industrial equipment with each other and to SCADA or cloud systems. The reader could be connected to a network using RS485 Modbus-RTU or Ethernet Modbus-TCP. 1.8.1 CABLING FOR RS485 COMMUNICATION SENSeOR recommends the use of shielded cable for the RS485 wiring, providing at least one twisted pair, one single line, and a drain wire.
MONITORING SOLUTION ENERGY 1.8.3 BUS DATA RATE The RS485 bus data rate is dependent on the bus cable length and the number of readers on the bus. In industrial environments, slower data communication rates are generally more reliable. 1.8.4 BUS LENGTH Bus cable length has an impact on the overall data rates that can be achieved.
MONITORING SOLUTION ENERGY 1.8.7 CABLING FOR ETHERNET COMMUNICATION SENSeOR recommends the use of shielded Cat 5e SFTP cable for the Ethernet wiring, with copper cable and aluminum shielding, providing real improvement to electromagnetic interferences. Readers Ethernet network is provided by a fixed configuration more detailed below. Firstly, the IP address is defined by the last four digits of the product serial number printed on the side of the reader.
MONITORING SOLUTION ENERGY 1.10 CONNECTING TO EARTH Ground lug Earth connections must be done using ground lug with a minimum of 16 AWG and tin-coated, with a soft drawn copper of ASTM B8, Class B stranding, 300V rated cable. Insulation shall be EP (Ethylene Propylene) or EPCP (Ethylene Propylene Chlorosulfonated Polyethylene compound).
MONITORING SOLUTION ENERGY SYSTEM INSTALLATION AND CONFIGURATION 1.12 SAW TEMPERATURE SENSORS INSTALLATION This manual does not cover all specific SAW temperature sensors installation. For more details, see the ‘SENSeOR Installation Manual’. 1.13 SYSTEM CONFIGURATION The reader requires a system configuration for the associated installed SAW temperature sensors, the ambient humidity and temperature sensors and the partial discharge probe antennas.
MONITORING SOLUTION ENERGY 1.14.2 RESET Only Ethernet settings are lost (back to default value) when device is reset. ► Hold the Reset button until all LEDs are flashing green. This can take up to 15 seconds. ► Release the Reset button. ►...
