Wiring

 

Risk of injury!

The EasyNOₓ is designed for operation in circuits with protected extra-low voltage (PELV). The voltages in these circuits must not exceed 50 V AC or 75 V DC.

The EasyNOₓ must not be electrically connected to circuits which carry dangerously high voltages or which could do so if a single fault occurs.

Therefore, the following conditions, among others, must be fulfilled:

  • The power supply may only be provided from power supply units with safe electrical isolation or from batteries.
  • Relays with safe isolation must be used for coupling to circuits that carry or in the event of a failure could carry dangerous voltage.
  • All currently applicable standards and regulations must be taken into account.

  

Do the wiring as follows:

Use suitable wire end ferrules (not supplied) for each wire that you place on a terminal.

Use a three-core round cable with a minimum cross section of 1.5 mm2 to connect the EasyNOₓ system to the power supply. The earth of the EasyNOₓ system must be connected to the earth of the system.

Only use shielded CAN cables for CAN bus wiring, and connect the shields to the appropriate terminals (Shield).

Unless you use the CAN bus hybrid cable from MOTORTECH, the CAN and power supply cables to the CAN bus/NOX sensor modules must be routed in parallel.

The power supply cables to the CAN bus/NOX sensor modules should have a minimum cross-section of 1.5 mm2. Depending on the total wire length of both power supply cables and the number of CAN bus/NOX sensor modules connected, provide sufficient supply voltage to the EasyNOₓ. Possible cable cross-sections and total cable lengths depending on the supply voltage can be found in the following tables.

Insert the supplied sealing inserts and sealing insert pins into the cable glands through which you do not feed any cables. Close all cable glands with a tightening torque of 8 Nm (5.9 lb-ft).

Unless you want to exchange the memory card as well, close the door of the EasyNOₓ housing after wiring the EasyNOₓ and turn the locks of the door to the closed position (see section Opening and Closing of Housing).
