DANGER
HAZARD OF ELECTRICAL SHOCK, EXPLOSION OR ARC FLASH Do not exceed the device’s ratings. Ensure all cables and wiring harness are secured using a relevant strain relief mechanism. Failure to follow these instructions will result in death or serious injury

DANGER

HAZARD OF ELECTRICAL SHOCK, EXPLOSION OR ARC FLASH

Do not exceed the device’s ratings.
Ensure all cables and wiring harness are secured using a relevant strain relief mechanism.

Failure to follow these instructions will result in death or serious injury

WARNING
UNINTENDED EQUIPMENT OPERATION Ensure wires are routed to minimize the pick-up of Electromagnetic interference (EMI) keeping cable lengths to a minimum. Only use copper cables (except for the thermocouple wiring). Failure to follow these instructions can result in death, serious injury, or equipment damage

WARNING

UNINTENDED EQUIPMENT OPERATION

Ensure wires are routed to minimize the pick-up of Electromagnetic interference (EMI) keeping cable lengths to a minimum.
Only use copper cables (except for the thermocouple wiring).

Failure to follow these instructions can result in death, serious injury, or equipment damage

Tip - Where signal and power wiring cannot be separated, signal wiring should be shielded.

Terminal Wiring	Cross Section
1 solid conductor	0.2 to 2.5 mm² (American Wire Gauge (AWG) 24 - AWG 14)
2 solid conductors	0.2 to 1.5 mm² (AWG 24 - AWG 16) - both conductors must be the same cross section
1 stranded conductor without ferrule	0.2 to 2.5 mm² (AWG 24 - AWG 14)
1 stranded conductor with single ferrule	0.2 to 1.5 mm² (AWG 24 - AWG 16)
2 stranded conductors with twin ferrule	0.2 to 0.75 mm² (AWG 24 - AWG 20)

Note - Minimum individual conductor size in stranded connectors when no ferrule is used is a cross section of 0.05 mm² (AWG 30).

Terminal block captive screws are not supplied tightened and must be tightened to 0.5 to 0.6 Nm (0.30 lb-ft) using a flat tipped screwdriver with a diameter of 3.5 mm (0.14"). Stripping length for all cable types is 10 mm (0.39").
