4.1.3 Common Accessories

There are several items that may be required to complete the installation, but

are not included in the CPEC200. Some of the more common accessories are:

System Power Cable: Two power cables are required for the CPEC200; one

for the main CPEC200 system and one for the EC100 electronics.

The preferred power cable, CABLEPCBL-L, consists of a twisted red/black

pair of wire gauge (AWG) 16 within a rugged Santoprene™ jacket. It is cut to

the specified length and the end is finished for easy installation.

The “-L” designation after certain parts designates a cable or tube

length in feet. The length is specified by the user at the time of

order.

SDM Cable: An SDM communication cable is required to connect the EC100

to the CPEC200 system enclosure. The preferred SDM cable is CABLE4CBL-

L. This cable consists of four conductors with a shield and drain wire, and a

rugged Santoprene™ jacket. It is cut to the specified length and the end is

finished for easy installation.

Pump Tube: A tube must be used to connect the EC155 to the pump module.

If the EC155 is within 50 ft of the pump module, 3/8-in OD tubing, such as pn

26506, is recommended. For longer distances (up to 500 ft), a larger 1/2-in OD

tube (pn 25539) is recommended to minimize pressure drop in the tube. Pre-

swaged pump tube assemblies, such as pn 26504-L, 3/8-in OD, or pn 26503-L,

1/2-in OD, are available for this purpose.

The fittings on the EC155 and the pump module are sized for 3/8-

in OD tubing. A reducer is required at each end for the larger

tubing size. These reducers are supplied as part of the pre-swaged

tube assembly.

Zero/span tubes: Tubes must be used to connect the EC155 and the zero and

CO

2

span cylinders to the valve module. Bulk tubing may be cut to length and

installed onsite using pn 15702 or its equivalent. This tubing has a 1/4-in OD

to fit the Swagelok

®

fittings on the EC155 and the valve module. The tubing

has an aluminum core to minimize diffusion through the tubing wall and a UV-

resistant, black, high-density polyethylene jacket. Maximum tubing length

available is a 500-ft roll.
