1.3.1 Mains (Line) Supply

The Indicator will operate on 90 - 264V AC 50/60Hz mains (line) supply. The power

consumption is approximately 4 watts.

CAUTION: This equipment is designed for installation in an enclosure

which provides adequate protection against electric shock. Local

regulations regarding electrical installation should be rigidly

observed. Consideration should be given to prevention of access to

the power terminations by unauthorised personnel. Power should be

connected via a two-pole isolating switch (preferably situated near

to the equipment) and a 1A fuse, as shown in Figure 1-4.

If the Indicator has relay outputs in which the contacts are to carry mains (line)

voltage, it is recommended that the relay contact mains (line) supply should be

switched and fused in a similar manner but should be separate from the Indicator

mains (line) supply.

1.3.2 20 - 50V AC/DC Supply

Power should be connected via a two-pole isolating switch and a315mA

slow-blow (anti-surge Type T) fuse. With this option fitted, the Indicator will accept

20 - 50V AC @ 50/60Hz or 20 -50V DC in the polarity shown in Figure 1-4.

1.3.3 Thermocouple Input

The correct type of thermocouple extension leadwire or compensating cable

should be used for the entire distance between the Indicator and the

thermocouple, ensuring that the correct polarity is observed throughout. The

positive leg should be connected to Terminal 3 and the negative leg to Terminal

4. Joints in the cable should be avoided, if possible.

NOTE: Do not run thermocouple cables adjacent to power-carrying

conductors. If the wiring is run in a conduit, use a separate conduit

for the thermocouple wiring. If the thermocouple is grounded, this

must be done at one point only. If the thermocouple extension lead

is shielded, the shield must be grounded at one point only.

1.3.4 RTD Inputs

Three-wire or four-wire RTDs may be used. For three-wire RTDs, connect the resistive

leg of the RTD to Terminal 2, the common legs to Terminals 3 and 4 and a link

between Terminals 1 and 2. For four-wire RTDs, connect the resistive legs to

Terminals 1 and 2 and the common legs to terminals 3 and 4.
