Connect Input Wires

Ensure that power to the rectifier has been turned off before wiring the unit.

American Innovations recommends using AI part number 211061-000 (Belden 5308UE), or equivalent, for wiring inputs. Refer to Technical Specifications for the technical specifications for this wiring.

Complete the following steps to connect input wires to the RM4010 , RM4014, or RM4014S.

  1. Connect your device(s) to the unit using the information in the following list:

    To ensure a clean stable reading, keep field wiring as short as possible and use shielded twisted pair wire such as Alpha 2463C.

    • CH 1: supports analog (±5 VDC).

    • CH 2: supports analog (±100 VDC).

    • CH 3 and CH 4: support analog (±5 VDC).

    • CH 5 and CH 6: support 0 - 15 V DC digital. Channel 5 can also be used as an accumulator.

  2. Dress input wires inside the unit enclosure.

  3. Connect unit input wires to the output terminals of your device(s).

    If wires are to be buried or covered, conduit must be used to protect wires.

  4. Tighten fitting on the bottom of the unit's enclosure.

  5. If your device is turned off, turn ON the device to restore power to field wiring.

  6. Continue with Installation Overview to configure the unit for service.
