Section 7.4
Strain Gauge Wiring
1)
Run flexible or rigid conduit from the strain gauge protective boxes to the control enclosure that
contains the OmniLink II card rack. Entry into the control enclosure should be as close as
possible to the tonnage monitor module.
2)
Pull the strain gauge cables through the conduit from the strain gauge locations to the control
enclosure. Once inside the enclosure route the strain gauge cables away from all other voltage
sources, as much as possible. Run cables to the channel connectors on the front of the tonnage
monitor module and cut the excess cable lengths off.
3)
Strip about 2 ½ inches of cable insulation off of the braided wire shield. Remove the four
conductor wires from the shield, taking care to leave the shield wire length connected to the cable.
4)
Wire the channel connectors as shown in Figure 7.10. Cover or tape the shield, to avoid
accidental shorting to any other point.
