Read all Warnings and Cautions before Installation and Set-up.

2.1 Warnings

2.2 Cautions

WARNING !

• Risk of electric shock

• For electrical safety, the vibration switch must be earthed

• For your own safety, disconnect all electrical power to the vibrating machine and ensure the

vibrating machine cannot operate during installation. Follow all safety warnings of the

machine manufacturer

• To avoid corrosion inside the vibration switch keep enclosure sealed before and after

installation

• The Cable Entry Cap is for transport and storage and is not suitable for resisting ingress of

moisture if a vibration switch is installed in the field and not wired. Unless the switch is

immediately wired using a suitable cable gland, replace the Cable Entry Cap with Blanking

Plug 0051-002-01 (see accessories).

• For Ex compliance, ensure a minimum ingress protection of IP54 when selecting cable

entry devices.

• To prevent equipment Ex protection being compromised, the user shall perform external

visual inspection to confirm agressive substances such as acidic liquids and gases or

solvents have not compromised metallic or polymeric materials.

2.3 EMC Requirements

• To ensure EMC requirements are met, it is recommended that SWA, MICC, screened

cable, or metal conduit be used, with suitable earthing.

2.4 Terminal Block

• For reference, terminal block type BK6 is certified in EC Certificate Sira 01ATEX3247U.

• Classification Ex

II

2GD EEx e

II.

• Voltage rating 275V, current rating 28A.
