CONNECTIONS
TO LECU5003
CONTROL PANEL
Route the control cable from the LEPS5001
Power Supply through one of the external
wiring grommets located on the bottom of the
control panel, and connect to the control panel
terminal block as described in Figure 1. After
making the connections, tighten the external
wiring grommet around the black heat shrunk
portion of the control cable. In general, con-
duit should be used to route the control cable
(check your local codes for conduit require-
ments). Figure 3 shows a schematic of the
LEPS5001 Power Supply and its connections to
the LECU5003 Control Panel.

The LEPS5001 Power Supply can also
be used with older model 17264 Control
Panels. For wiring connections, refer to
Figure 2.
NOTE
HIGH VOLTAGE CABLE
-ROUTING & GENERAL GUIDELINES
SSW-1064
Unshielded High Voltage Cable
According to OSHA standard 1910.107,(h)(5),
high voltage cable “shall be properly insulated
and protected from mechanical injury or ex-
posure to destructive chemicals”. To facilitate
compliance with this code, the following recom-
mendations
must be followed:
1.
Never route cables so that they lie on
the floor or are subject to vehicular traffic.
2.
Never route cables from different power
supplies along parallel paths unless they
are separated by at least 18 inches.
3.
Always route cables along appropriate
insulators.
4.
Always properly support cables at least
12 inches from metal beams. The sup-
port should be made of material that
does not conduct electricity, such as
most plastics. Ransburg part number
45773-011 is one such support.
5.
Always route cables from overhead,
down to the applicator.
>
Sheathing is NOT a safe method of pro-
tecting a cable from wear or traffic!
W A R N I N G
!
6.
If an insulating sheathing is used around
the cable, it
MUST be of a nonabsor-
bent material, such a polyethylene, and
should be routed to prevent contact with
or entrapment of solvents or cleaning
solutions. The cable should
NOT be
sheathed from its last point of physical
support after it enters the spray area, to
the applicator! Insulating sheathing is
available from Ransburg as part number
9704-13.
7.
If a cable must be routed through a met-
al (or conductive) surface, cut an open-
ing with a minimum radius of five inches
and mount a nonconductive bulkhead
therein. Route the cable through the
center of the bulkhead and secure it with
a suitable, nonconductive strain relief.
(The opening may be any configuration
as long as there is at least five inches
from the nearest conductor.)
>
Do NOT make the approach to the ap-
plicator at or below floor level. Route high
voltage cables from overhead down to the
applicator. Routing the cables up and out
of the way will result in less exposure to
dirt and traffic.
