Consideration should be given to easy access by maintenance personnel as well as the consequences of close prox-
imity to contaminants that may foul the sensor prematurely.
Note: An appropriate conduit seal must be located within 18" of the sensor assembly. Crouse Hinds type EYS2,
EYD2 or equivalent are suitable for this purpose.
3.5.5 Installation Procedure
Note: See section 3.5.6 for special information on remote mounting applications in which the sensor (Model IR-
640-RS) is remotely mounted away from the transmitter (Model IR-640-RT).
a)
Remove the junction box cover and un-plug the control circuit by grasping the two thumb screws and pulling outward.
b)
Securely mount the sensor junction box in accordance with recommended practice. See dimensional drawing (Fig. 2).
c)
Observing correct polarity, terminate 3 conductor field wiring, RS-485 wiring, and applicable alarm wiring to the
sensor base connector board in accordance with the detail shown in Figure 3. Normally open and normally closed
Form C dry contacts (rated 5 amp @ 120VAC; 5 amp @ 30VDC) are provided for Fault, Alarm 1, and Alarm 2.
d)
Position gold plated jumper tabs located on the connector board in accordance with desired Form C dry con-
