Instructions for Mechanical and Electrical Installation
Note
Further installation-relevant information on technical data, mechanical data, and available
connection lines for the relevant vibration sensor types can be found in the corresponding
datasheet.
Always observe the following instructions to ensure safe operation of the vibration sensor:
Warning!
Work must be performed by trained and qualified personnel only!
Commissioning and operation of this electrical device must be performed by trained and quali-
fied personnel only. This means individuals who are qualified to commission (in accordance
with safety engineering), connect to ground, and label devices, systems, and circuits.
Warning!
Perform work only when the system is de-energized!
De-energize your device before performing work on the electrical connections. Short circuits,
voltage peaks, and similar events can lead to faults and undefined statuses. This presents a
significant risk of personal injury and property damage.
Warning!
Performing work in a hazardous area!
De-energize your device or remove the housing cover before performing work on the electrical
connections.
Seal all unused cable glands with protective covers. Prevent the inside of the device from
becoming contaminated when the connector is disconnected.
Disconnected connectors must always be de-energized.
Lock the connection with interlock protection. Pay attention to the warning marking.
Do not remove the warning marking "Warning – Do not disconnect when energized!"
For VIM6***-*****-*P*-******* vibration sensors with type of protection Ex i and a connector
plug, only use V15-W-N4-*M-PUR-N4S5 connection cables from Pepperl+Fuchs.
Ensure that the device and its measuring head are only operated in their permissible tempera-
ture ranges. This information can be found in the relevant datasheet.
Warning!
Protect cables against interference and damage.
Protect the connection cable and any extension cables from electrical interference and
mechanical damage. Always observe the local regulations and instructions.
Warning!
Check electrical connections before switching on the plant!
Check all electrical connections before switching on the plant. Incorrect connections present a
significant risk of personal injury and property damage. Incorrect connections can lead to mal-
functions.
