WARNING
THE UNIT IS RATED FOR INGRESS PROTECTION WHEN
THE MATING CORDSET IS ATTACHED. THE MATING
CORDSET SHALL REMAIN CONNECTED DURING
OPERATION AND SHALL ONLY BE DISCONNECTED /
RECONNECTED BY TRAINED SERVICE PERSONNEL. IF
THE MATING CORD SET IS DISCONNECTED, IT IS THE
RESPONSIBILITY OF THE SERVICE PERSONNEL TO
INSTALL AN APPROPRIATELY RATED CAP (NOT SUPPLIED)
OVER THE RECEPTACLE TO MAINTAIN THE RATED
INGRESS PROTECTION OF THE UNIT.
When installed in Division 2 areas in the United States and Canada, a
Division 2 FM approved Turck eurofast® or minifast® cordset and the
use of a tool-secured Turck lokfast® guard is required.
Because the unit is rated for Ingress Protection with the mating cordset
attached, care must be taken when selecting the cordset to ensure it is
rated by the manufacturer with equivalent Ingress Protection ratings to
the unit.
The Turck lokfast® guard renders the cordset not “normally arcing”
and maintains ingress protection rating by making the connection tool
secured. Refer to the lokfast® guard’s documentation for details on
releasing the locking mechanism.
The cordsets, as specied above, are available with cable rated
for various wiring methods, such as ITC, PLTC, MC, etc. It is the

Typical basic installation
Wiring considerations
The pins V+ (24V+) and V- (0V) provide power for the unit’s sensor
circuitry and solenoid output. These pins should be wired to the same
24 VDC (18-30 VDC) source used for eld wiring connections of the
input / output card(s). There is no isolation between V+ / V- pins to the
signal pins. The power supply used must be able to provide enough
power/current for the unit’s circuitry plus current required for the signals
and external solenoid.
The open and closed signal pins should be wired to the input card’s
signal input terminal. No connection to the common terminal is
required.
The solenoid control signal pin should be wired to the output card’s
output (switched) terminal. No connection to the common terminal is
required.
Self-learning signals
Every time power is cycled to V+ / V-, the device will test the signal
wires to learn what type of input and/or output card(s) are wired to
each signal. If a signal is open-circuit, the device will continue to test it
until a card is detected. If the open or closed signal is short-circuited,
the device will retest the signal once the short circuit is removed.
Like most solid-state sensors, some current restrictive input cards
may detect a momentary ON state while the device is booting. Most
input cards (especially those designed for solid-state sensors) will not
experience an ON state during boot up.
