6-4 ADS FlowShark Pulse O&M Manual
Model 20 Transmitter:
z 2 glands M20 x 1.5
z 3 glands M16 x 1.5
z 2 plugs M20 x 1.5
z 2 plugs M16 x 1.5
Use the glands supplied to connect the following outer cable cross-sections:
z M16 x 1.5: 3.5 mm – 10.5 mm (0.138 – 0.413 in)
z M20 x 1.5: 6.0 mm – 14.0 mm (0.236 – 0.591 in)
To use a cable with a diameter outside of the specified tolerance, use a gland that
ensures IP 65 minimum protection.
Protect unused wire access openings with an appropriate dummy plug before initial
start-up.
The transmitter has terminal clamps that accommodate power supplies and
digital/analog outputs/inputs with single and multi-wired cables with cross-sectional
areas of 0.007 – 0.098 inches² (0.18-2.5 mm²).
The combi, air-ultrasonic, and 2-wire level sensors have connection plugs for
handling purposes. The cable ends of the FlowShark Pulse sensors or single and
multi-wired cables with cross-sectional areas of 0.007-0.098 inches² (0.18-2.5 mm²)
can receive these plugs.
The 7-pole plug-and-socket connections of the flow velocity sensors are
interchangeable. However, the hardware configuration does not support switching
between 7-pole and 9-pole plug rails (9 poles = level sensors).
Connecting terminal clamps requires a slotted screwdriver with a 0.118- or 0.138-
inch (3.0-mm or 3.5-mm) blade. Connect the sensors to the plugs using a slotted
screwdriver with a 0.079- to 0.098-inch (2.0-mm to 2.5-mm) blade.
While the terminal clamps typically arrive unscrewed upon delivery, please verify
they are unscrewed before connecting the power supply or the signal wires.
Before making the first connection, apply slight pressure to the
screw on the clamping connection to ensure safety in opening and a
proper connection.
Water or dirt must not leak into the terminal housing. Therefore,
please seal the housing with the lid and two screws supplied.
Position lid with the beveled side up (it is not reversible). An
improper or faulty seal will not provide adequate protection.
