Introduction
40-pin connector modules are connected to sensors, pre-actuators, or terminals using a cable designed to enable trouble-free direct wire to wire transition of the module’s inputs/outputs.
| DANGER | |
|---|---|
HAZARD OF ELECTRIC SHOCK, ARC FLASH OR EXPLOSION 40-pin connectors must be connected or disconnected with
sensor and pre-actuator voltage switched off. Failure to follow these instructions will result in death or serious injury. | |
The following diagram shows the connection of the cable to the module.
| WARNING | |
|---|---|
UNEXPECTED EQUIPMENT OPERATION During the installation process, ensure that the connectors
are identified with the corresponding modules so that incorrect connection
cannot occur. Plugging the wrong connector into a module will result
in unexpected equipment operation. Failure to follow these instructions can result in death, serious injury, or equipment damage. | |
BMX FCW ••• Connection Cables
They are made up of:
- at one end, a compound-filled 40-pin connector from which extend 1 or 2 cable sheaths, each containing 20 wires with a cross-sectional area of 0.34 mm2 (AWG 22)
at the other end, free wire ends color coded
The cables with 1 cable sheath containing 20 wires designed to connect the 40-pin connectors to the sensors or pre-actuators come in 3 different lengths:
3 meters: BMX FCW 301
5 meters: BMX FCW 501
10 meters: BMX FCW 1001
The figure below shows the BMX FCW ••1 cables.
The cables with 2 cable sheaths containing 20 wires designed to connect the 40-pin connectors to the sensors or pre-actuators come in 3 different lengths:
3 meters: BMX FCW 303
5 meters: BMX FCW 503
10 meters: BMX FCW 1003
The figure below shows the BMX FCW ••3 cables.
| WARNING | |
|---|---|
UNEXPECTED EQUIPMENT OPERATION Do not exceed the maximum tightening torque. Excessive
torque may result in wire breakage, resulting in poor or intermittent
connection. Failure to follow these instructions can result in death, serious injury, or equipment damage. | |
