Page 23: Electrical Installation
Page 23 ELECTRICAL INSTALLATION • Electro static discharge does inflict irreparable damage to electronics! Before installing or opening the F111-P, the installer has to discharge himself by touching a well-grounded object. • For reasons of ESD and safety, always ground the metal enclosure properly as indicated, especially if the unit has been supplied with the 115-230V AC power-supply type PM or relays type OR. -
Page 24: Field Wiring Connections
Inside of the Fluidwell unit, the various common ground terminals are connected to each other. It is advised to terminate the wire screens in the vicinity of the sensor and to insulate the wire screen with a shrink tube at the F111-P side. -
