Mount the Device
THE LD1500 is a panel mounted device. Use the included wall mount kit and
mount the controller in a convenient location.
Install the Sensing Cable
Leader cable is included with the device and is used to connect sensing cable to
the LD1500, since sensing cable cannot connect directly to the controller.
1. Insert the four stripped wires of the leader cable into the
appropriate slots in the 4-pin terminal block connector -
from left to right: white, black, green, and red. Tighten
the screws on the terminal block connector to secure the
leader cable. Thread the leader cable through a knockout
on the bottom of the enclosure and plug the terminal
block connector into TB2.
2. Unscrew the EOL from the end of the leader cable.
3. Attach the first length of sensing cable to the leader cable.
4. Route the sensing cable according to your cable layout diagram.
5. Secure the EOL to the unoccupied end of the sensing cable.
Apply Power to the LD1500
A dedicated circuit breaker must be provided within
close proximity to the LD1500 and be clearly marked as
the disconnecting device for the LD1500 leak detection
controller.
RLE recommends using a 24VDC wall adapter power supply (PSWA-DC-24-ST),
which is available separately from RLE.
1. Run a power supply to the location of the unit and plug it into P1. If you’re
