  • Page 3: Introduction

    . The SSB6000 Series 4-12 Channel stainless steel modular switch box is used to convert the two-conductor input wiring of up to 12 remotely installed accelerometers, piezo velocity sensors, tachometers, proximity probes, and/ or temperature probes to a switched BNC and a switched two-pin MIL spec connector for data collection .

  • Page 5: Mounting Instructions

    Mounting Instructions Note: If you have purchased a modular switch box without cable entries provided, you should add your own entry prior to mounting the modular switch box . CTC does not recommend drilling holes in the top of the enclosure due to access and moisture concerns .
  • Page 6: Conduit Entry

    Conduit Entry If you are running conduit to your enclosure, ensure the conduit cable entry enters from the bottom of the enclosure when mounted . Note: To ensure moisture will not flow into the enclosure, a hole should be drilled at the lowest point in the conduit to provide drainage for any moisture .
  • Page 7: Grounding

    Grounding Ensure the shield ground wire on the SSB6000 Series modular switch box is grounded to earth ground . A. Mounting to Earth Ground When mounting SSB6000 Series modular switch boxes to earth ground (such as an I-Beam), no additional steps are necessary, as the enclosure is grounded internally .

  • Page 11: Post Installation Testing

    Post Installation Testing The TM1018 Accelerometer Verification Meter can be used to verify cable conductivity, sensor location and proper wiring connections . The Verification Meter will indicate if the sensor, cable and/or junction box is in working condition . It will also confirm bias voltage of the accelerometer, which will inform you of the operation of the internal accelerometer amplifier .
  • Page 12 The following LED Readout indicates the circuit integrity: Green LED: Normal . Indicates proper connection and an output bias will be given, indicating the health of the sensor (4 – 16 V indicates a healthy accelerometer) . Yellow LED: Open Circuit . Indicates one of the following: a .
