Sencon SIP-6 Manual

DESCRIPTION

The SIP-6 Sensor Interface Box works with Sencon Series 9 Sensors. The purpose of the SIP-6 is threefold;
1.) to provide a convenient means of terminating and wiring up to six sensors;
2.) to provide a visual indication of the output status of each sensor via an LED;
3.) and to provide a local adjustment feature for the operating threshold of each sensor (if so
equipped).
The SIP-6 housing is a tough polycarbonate NEMA 4X enclosure with a clear cover for viewing the LEDs and
adjustment potentiometers located inside. The basic box measures 7 inches [178 mm] high by 5 inches [127
mm] wide by 3 inches [76 mm] deep. Six cord grips with watertight gland fittings and integral strain relief are
located on the right-hand side of the box. Sensor cables enter the box through these fittings. The wires terminate
on individual plug-in connectors as shown in the drawings. Power and output signal wiring enter the box through
a larger cord grip and connector on the left-hand side of the box. The cord grip for the output cable works with
cable diameters of 0.375 inches [9.5 mm] to 0.500 inches [12.7 mm]. When using a jacketed cable in this range,
the SIP-6 is drip-proof. Change the cord grip when using a larger or smaller diameter cable to maintain the water
tight seal (cord grips in any desired size range are readily available at an electrical supply house).
