The power supply to sensors and actuators need fast-blow fuses against overload or overvoltage.
-
when wiring use wires of sufficient size to avoid on-line voltage falls and overheating,
-
keep sensor and actuator cables away from any source of radiation resulting from high-power electric circuit switching,
-
all cables connecting the translators must be shielded, the shielding must be good quality and connected to the protective ground both for the module and the translator. Continuity must be ensured throughout connections. Do not transmit any other signals in the cable than those for the translators.
For reasons of performance the auxiliary inputs of the module have a short response time. You must therefore make sure that there is enough self-sufficient supply to these inputs to ensure the module continues to operate correctly in the event of a short power break. It is recommended that you use a regulated supply to ensure more reliable response times from the actuators and sensors. The 0 V supply must be connected to the protective ground nearest to the supply module output.
