Preparing cables
The power and data cables to be connected to the carrier controller must be dressed with
corresponding connectors. The same applies to the sensor cables. System project planning
must specify the following:
●
The length of the cables used to connect the carrier controller
Observe the specifications in the section "Technical specifications (Page 42)".
●
The routing of the cables on the carrier frame
DANGER
Electrical accident through contact
The RAIL contact conductors are connected to 48 V AC, while the L1, L2 and L3 contact
conductors are operated on a voltage of 400/500 V AC. Contact with components carrying
these live voltages poses the risk of an electrical accident. Such an accident can result in
physical injury or death.
Always adhere to the necessary safety measures taken for the respective electrical system
components.
DANGER
Electrical accident through fault
A mechanical fault in the contact conductor system of the system can result in a short-
circuit between the L1, L2 or L3 contact conductors and the RAIL contact conductors.
Contact with components on live 400/500 V AC can result in an electrical accident. Such an
accident can result in physical injury or death.
Always adhere to the necessary safety measures taken for the respective electrical system
components.
Observe the "Safety instructions" section in the "EMS400S Plant controller for Electric
Monorail Systems" system manual.
Requirement
●
The EMS is powered off.
●
3 cables
The cables are wired to the EMS carrier components in accordance with the product
documentation of the respective EMS carrier components, e.g. brake resistor, current
collector carrier, and geared motor.
●
3 connectors for the –X1, –X2 and –X3 interfaces
●
Sensors in accordance with system project planning
The sensors are mounted to the EMS carrier and dressed with a connector.
