How to Install and Wire the Series 920
This chapter tells you how to install the Series 920.
All
mounting and wiring
information is right here.
Because
Watlow
controls are thoroughly tested, and
“burned in” before leaving the factory, the Series 920 is ready to install when you
receive it.
But before you begin working or cutting holes in
panels,
read through this
chapter to gain an understanding of the entire installation. Consider sensor
installation carefully. You’ll need to look at the noise reduction guidelines before
making your panel cutout.
Sensor Installation Guidelines
We suggest that you mount the sensor at a location in your process or system
where it reads an average temperature. Put the sensor as near as Possible to
the material or space that you want to control. Air flow past this sensor should be
moderate. The sensor should be thermally insulated from the sensor mounting.
Excessive lead length
in a two-wire
RTD
sensor can create indication
errors.
To
combat this, use a three wire sensor in long lead applications.
Input Power Wiring
Microprocessors are in a way
like trout...
They require a clean environment to be successful and to prosper. A clean
environment means on one level an environment that is free of excessive dust,
moisture and other airborne pollutants. But primarily it means a “clean” source
of input power from which to base all its operations. What is “clean power”?
Clean power is simply a steady, noise-free line voltage source that
meets
the
rating specifications of the hardware using it. Wiihout clean power to the
integrated circuitry, any microprocessor chip
isdoomed
to failure.
Just as the water you get from a tap nowadays may not be
acceptable
to drink
in some locales, so the line voltage coming into your facility may not be accept-
able for your microprocessor devices. You may have to fitter or “clean” the
water or the power. In industrial environments, the potential for pollutants
increases, especially electrical noise due to high level power
consumption
occurring in one place.
The recommendations we are providing for you are ways to achieve a minimum
level of clean input power protection.
In almost all cases these
guidelines
remove the potential for input power problems.
If you’ve applied these meas-
ures and still do not get results, please feel free to call us at the factory. We
are here to see that our control products work well and do the job they were
designed to do.
