MOTION-CONNECT connection systems
Introduction
General information
12
■
Function
(continued)
MOTION-CONNECT cables are tested in a cable carrier. The
cables are attached at one end by means of strain relief to the
moving ends of the cable carrier. Strain relief is applied over a
wide area of the cable jacket surface without crimping the cable.
Cables must be installed in accordance with the instructions
supplied by the cable carrier manufacturer.
Note
:
If, for example, pre-assembled cables are installed in a cable
carrier in such a way that the connector would inhibit assembly,
pre-assembled cables without assembled connectors can also
be supplied (power and signal cables
1)
). In this case, the con-
tacts of the cables are crimped and the connector is supplied
separately. After installing the cables, the customer assembles
the connector.
In case of vibration load and with horizontal or vertical cable
entries, we recommend that the cable is additionally fixed if be-
tween the cable strain relief on the cable carrier and the terminal
at the motor part of the cable is hanging loose or is not routed.
To prevent machine vibrations being transmitted to the connec-
tors, the cable should be fixed at the moving part where the
motor is mounted.
