Page 5: Mounting Instructions
Mounting Instructions Independent stainless steel mounting feet are included on the enclosure . Wall anchoring screws are not included . Note: If you have purchased a MX502 box without cable entries provided, you should add your own entry prior to mounting the termination box . CTC does not recommend putting holes in the top of the enclosure as it will cause restricted access to the wire termination connection points and also allow possible moisture ingression . -
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 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 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 . Cable connector is not connected to accelerometer . b .
