vibration sensor to the prepared area of the
feeder. Press the sensor very firmly onto the
feeder surface for at least 10 seconds.
7) Allow the vibration sensor at least 20 minutes to
cure before operation. Note it takes 72 hours for
the adhesive to fully cure at 70°F.
Alternatively, #8 or M4 screws can be used to mount
the sensor to the feeder. The hole centers are 1.375"
(3.49cm) apart.
D. ROUTE THE SENSOR CABLE to protect it from
strain due to vibration. The cable that attaches to the
sensor will not break from normal vibration; however,
some care should be used when routing the sensor
cable from the sensor to the control.
should hang straight down from the sensor without
touching the feeder bowl or anything else. Then, the
sensor cable should curve towards the power control
with a bend radius larger than 3 inches (8cm).
Use a cable tie and an adhesive-backed mount to
attach the sensor cable to the side of the drive base.
See Figure 2.
Clean the mounting area before
applying the adhesive-backed mount.
E. CONNECT THE SENSOR to the control. The
sensor's brown wire connects to +12VDC at TB2-9.
The blue wire connects to the signal input at TB2-12.

The 120V models in general purpose enclosures
provide a standard North American receptacle
(NEMA 5-15R) for connection to the feeder. 240V
models have a pigtail output cord. Power cords are
optional on Oil Resistant models.

Control Dial or 4-20mA signal must be present. Turn
the ON and OFF delay pots down CCW. The DIP
switch S1 must be set to match the sensor's output
type, PNP or NPN. The PNP or NPN LED must light
up and turn off when making and breaking the 3- wire
DC parts sensor. If no parts sensor is connected, set
the S1 INV/NORM switch to "Invert". If the feeder only
hums, toggle the 60/120 dip switch.
