Applicable Industries:
All industries utilizing CENTUM VP / CS3000 DCS: Oil & Gas, Petrochemical, Power, Water Treatment, Chemical, Pharmaceutical, Paper

Installation Requirements:

  • Mount on 35 mm DIN rail inside I/O cabinet
  • Use ferrule-terminated wire ends for AWG 22 and smaller
  • Tighten screws to torque of 0.5 N·m (do not over-tighten)
  • Maintain wire bend radius ≥ 30 mm at terminal exit

Precautions:

  • Do not use wire gauge > 2.5 mm² (AWG 14) — will damage terminal
  • Do not use wire gauge < 0.5 mm² (AWG 20) — poor contact reliability
  • Ensure stripped wire length is 8 mm to 10 mm for optimal contact
  • Do not connect different voltage levels on adjacent terminals without isolation
