NTC and PTC: The temperature sensor’s cable must
be shielded if the cable between the unit and the
temperature sensors is longer than 10m. The cable
shield is connected to the ground of the hoist. It is
recommended to use 360 degrees shield clamps to
carry out the grounding!
Bi-metal: It is recommended to use a supplementary
relay between the unit and the thermistor. In that
case there is no need for a shielded cable and
possible disturbance is limited to the minimum.
In case third party motors are used, please consult
with the manufacturer of the motor for thermistor
details.
Motors without thermistors must be protected
against overheating by other means, e.g. a motor
protection switch.
