2 turns around the ferrite core provide 4 times the suppression of 1 turn. 3 turns around the ferrite core provide 9 times the suppression of 1 turn. A ferrite core suppresses disturbances to the 24 V feed, see 6 in drawing above. Beijer Electronics, MAEN096C...
1. Check whether the other Ethernet unit has its shield directly grounded or grounded via a capacitor. Note: In many cases, connecting the shielded Ethernet cabling to the chassis at both ends is inappropriate. Hum or grounding loops can occur. Unshielded cabling may even result in fewer communication errors. Beijer Electronics, MAEN096C...

A more elegant method is to expand the shielded Ethernet cabling with a piece of unshielded Ethernet cable, see 4 in drawing above. The shield can be grounded via an external 0.1 μF/250 V plastic capacitor, see 5 in drawing above. This will connect the HF transients to ground. Beijer Electronics, MAEN096C...
Additional Installation Tips To Achieve Better EMC Protection Initially, use the original cabling from Beijer Electronics primarily. • Use shielded cables for RS232 communication. • Use twisted pair and shielded cabling for RS422 and RS485. • Use the cabling intended for the bus type; Ethernet, Profibus, CC-Link, •...
If the fan is mounted at the top and sucks warm air upwards, the fan’s ambient temperature will be higher, resulting in a shorter lifespan. The operator panel’s loss effect = supply voltage x current. Virtually no power goes to external users and no loss effects due to inputs. Beijer Electronics, MAEN096C...
Transients on the 24 V feed are connected to the ground. • No risk that the 24 V feed is at a high level in relationship to the ground. This • is not unusual since there is high static electricity. Beijer Electronics, MAEN096C...
24 V feed, disturbances and grounding currents from the 0 V on the 24 V side will disrupt communication. Using this type of unit solves one problem but creates a larger problem! A substandard installation may work now, but problems may arise when other devices are connected. Beijer Electronics, MAEN096C...
Depending on the recipients’ design, the bus wires may be on the same level or require pull-up or pull-down to ensure that no faulty signals are detected when the bus is in resting mode (all transmitters are disconnected). Beijer Electronics, MAEN096C...
