Please note, care must be taken to avoid scraped, pinched, or crushed wiring . Wires that are scraped, pinched, or crushed during shipping,
handling or installation will void the warranty .
• Identify the Smart Roll as a Universal Mount Smart Roll and select the mounting site on the conveyor .
• Determine which side of the conveyor is desirable for running the conduit/wires for the Smart Roll .
It is advisable to route the wires/
conduit for the Smart Roll away from electrical power conduit as the electrical power may cause electromagnetic interference (EMI) in the
signal from the Smart Roll. If EMI is present the signal from the Smart Roll may not make it to the Smart Monitor or PLC. This will result in
the Smart Monitor or PLC getting faulty readings.
• Unscrew the self-tapping screws on the end clips that hold the Smart Roll in the Universal Mount frame .
• Remove the Smart Roll from the frame and set it and the end clips and screws aside for later assembly .
• The Universal Mount frame has two 0 .56” x 1” slots for attaching the frame to the customer designed mounting location . Fasten the
Universal Mount frame in place using two ½” diameter bolts, lock washers, and nuts (not provided with the Universal Mount Smart
Roll) . This mounting location must keep the Smart Roll in constant contact with the conveyor belt to provide accurate information .
• Place the Smart Roll in the Universal Mount frame and lock in place with the end clips and screws .
UNIVERSAL MOUNT SMART ROLL WIRING
• Disconnect and lockout power before starting wiring procedure .
The Smart Roll is provided with a ½ inch 90° elbow conduit access port . The Smart Roll cable is 2 wire, 22 AWG, PVC jacket, PVC
insulation, and 6 feet in length . No set-up is required to the sensor inside the Smart Roll . It is factory set and maintenance free .
DO NOT apply voltage directly across the wires of the Smart Roll Sensor, permanent damage may result . The Smart Roll is designed to be
used with a Smart Monitor, PLC or similar device .
DO NOT use an incandescent light bulb as a load . An overload will occur due to extremely high cold current .
DO NOT operate without a load . A dead short will result which may cause irreparable damage .
DO NOT directly operate a motor with the sensor . Always use a relay or other appropriate device .
• At this point a 2 wire cable needs to be routed from the control box housing the Smart Monitor to the Smart Roll . It is recommended
to use minimum of 22 AWG shielded cable . Shielded cable eliminates electromagnetic interference (EMI) . It is advisable to route the
wires/conduit for the Smart Roll away from electrical power conduit as the electrical power may cause electromagnetic interference
(EMI) in the signal from the Smart Roll . If EMI is present the signal from the Smart Roll may not make it to the Smart Monitor or PLC .
This will result in the Smart Monitor or PLC getting faulty readings .
Conduit from the control box to the Smart Roll offers more protection to the cable . Any nick, gouge or cut in the cable wiring could
prevent the sensor signal from reaching the Smart Monitor .
PPI is not capable of being aware of all site and industry electrical requirements for an application, and cannot be held liable for
non-compliant installations. The product has been designed to be capable of meeting many requirements, and a qualified individual should
review the connection plan prior to installation. Connection of conduit to 90° elbow conduit access port does not meet intrinsically safe
requirements.
DO NOT PULL THE WIRES CONNECTED TO THE SMART ROLL. Pulling wire from inside the roll will cause damage and void warranty. Be
sure to protect the wire near elbow threads and all corners, as this may damage the wire/insulation.
• Remove the cover from the 90° elbow conduit access port and route the Smart Roll wires and the wires from the control box through
the conduit opening in the 90° elbow access port and out the rectangular opening .
• Attach the conduit to the 90° elbow access port .
