INSTALLATION
SYSTEM GUIDELINES
Prints Specific per Installation
Often times, installation prints are custom drawn
for each site. You should check those prints for
information that is specific to your installation.
Any deviations from those prints made during or
after installation should be recorded for further
reference.
Cable Assemblies
Most electrical interconnections between the Dy-
naFlow controller and other system components
are made through cable assemblies.
NOTE
Any unused conduit holes must be blanked off
to prevent solid objects from entering the inte-
rior of the enclosure.
Equipment Grounding
The control panel should be grounded
in accordance with national and local
electrical codes.

!
The protective ground conductor must be
terminated directly to the protective conduc-
tor ground terminal located inside the Control
Enclosure which is marked with symbol -
Equipment Locations
With the exception of the following restrictions,
the installation of the Transducers or Transducer
Panel, the Remote Operators Station and Regu-
lator/Flow meter assemblies are application and
site dependant. Specific instructions for location
and mounting of these assemblies are covered
on the site installation drawings.
1. The maximum recommended distance from
the Control Panel to each flow meter is 100-ft.
as determined by the maximum standard avail-
able length of the fiber-optic cable assemblies or
intrinsic electrical cable assemblies.
2. The maximum recommended length of air pi-
lot tubing between the electrical-to-pneumatic
(E/P) transducer and the material regulator is
largely determined by the application. In general,
the pilot lines should be kept as short as pos-
sible to achieve the best fluid flow response and
regulation. See "Pilot Signal Guidelines" chart in
this section.
3. The maximum distance between the optional
LBAL5001-XX Pneumatic Interface Panel to the
Control Console is 40-ft., as determined by the
interconnecting electrical cable assembly.
4. The maximum recommended 1/4-inch OD
hose length from the LBAL5003, Remote Opera-
tor Panel, and the LBAL5001, Pneumatic Inter-
face Panel, is 50-ft., however this can be longer
depending on the application. The maximum
distance between the A12182 interface panel and
the A12233 console is 100-ft.
5. The maximum recommended length for the
E/P transducer electrical control cable is 95 ft.
However, in some cases 175-ft. has been used.
Generally, if a GUN number (not atomizers) con-
trols a complete zone of 6 or more atomizers, do
not exceed 95-ft. of cable.
Consult Ransburg if longer distances than those
shown above are desired.
