Chapter 2 Installation and Wiring
GT10/GT30 2.1 2.1.1 2.1 Installation Installation Installation Environment When installing and using the GT series, always make sure the following conditions are observed. Usage Conditions When installing the product, make sure it is used within the range of the general specifications.
GT10/GT30 2.1 Installation – Separate wiring systems should be used for the power supply unit and the operating unit. Static Electricity/Noise – Keep the GT10/GT30 main unit, PLC connecting cable, and other wiring as far away as possible from machines which are likely to produce noise (welding equipment, power lines, inverters, motors, etc.).
GT10/GT30 2.1 Installation (2) Insert the fittings into the grooves provided in the GT10 main unit, and tighten the screws to secure the GT10 main unit to the installation panel. Four fittings and four screws provided with the unit Enlarged view CAUTION Screw tightening torque The screw tightening torque should be 0.1 N m to 0.25 N m. Applicable panel thickness A panel with a thickness of 1.0 mm to 6.0 mm should be used.
GT10/GT30 2.1.3 2.1 Installation GT30 Installation Method Secure the GT30 to the installation panel using the two fittings and four screws provided with the unit. (1) Place the GT30 main unit in the installation panel. (2) Insert the fittings into the grooves provided in the GT30 main unit, and tighten the screws to secure the GT30 main unit to the installation panel.
GT10/GT30 2.1 Installation clearance of 30 mm to 50 mm/1.18 inch to 1.97 inch around the GT30. This prevents cables from being damaged, and facilitates the installation work. Also, make sure that the slits in the main unit are never obstructed.
GT10/GT30 2.2 2.2 Wiring the Power Supply Wiring the Power Supply The power supply should be wired by securely connecting the terminal on the rear of the main unit to the terminal. Always use crimp terminals for wiring. +24 V +24 V F. E. (D–type ground) +24 V F. E. (D–type ground) 0V 0V Use twisted wiring for the power supply In order to minimize influence from noise, the wiring for the power supply should be twisted.
GT10/GT30 2.2 Wiring the Power Supply Keep the power supply wiring separate – Wiring to the GT series, PLC, and other power equipment should have separate wiring systems.
GT10/GT30 2.3 2.3 Wiring the COM. Port Wiring the COM. Port Accessory communication connector/applicable wiring The communication connector used for the COM. port (provided as an accessory with the main unit) has a screw–tightening type of terminal base. The wiring shown below should be used. Accessory communication connector The communication connector is made by Fenics Contact Co., Ltd. Fenics Model No. No. of pins 5–pin Model No. Product No.
GT10/GT30 2.3.1 2.3 Wiring the COM. Port Wiring Method (1) Remove the sheath from the wire. 7 mm/0.28 inch (2) Insert the wire all the way into the terminal base, and tighten the screw in the clockwise direction to secure it. 2.3.2 Precautions Concerning Wiring The following precautions should be observed, to avoid broken or disconnected wires. – When removing the sheath, be careful not to scratch the core wire. – Wire the terminal without twisting the core wire.
