Mounting power supply cable
Install the cable for the power supply of the control panel using the material supplied for connector assembly. It consists of a 5-pin connection strip and a strain relief housing with cable tie.
If you require a replacement for the voltage connector or the strain relief housing, you can order these from Beckhoff Sales using the following ordering option:
- C9900-P927: power supply plug for CP69xx or CP66xx Control Panel, 5-pin connector with strain relief for the external supply cable
Mounting power supply cable
First mount the plug on the cable as follows:
- 1. Remove a few centimeters of the cable sheath.
- 2. Remove the insulation from the wire ends (8-9 mm).
- 3. Crimp the ferrules onto the stripped wire ends.
- 4. Insert the cable ends with the ferrules into the 5-pin connection strip. For the pin assignment of the connector, see Chapter 3.2.5 Power supply.
- 5. Screw the cable ends into the 5-pin connection strip.
- You have mounted the plug on the cable.
Assembly of strain relief housing
Now mount the strain relief housing on the previously connected plug and power supply cable as shown in Fig. 13:
- 1. Thread the cable tie into the lower part of the strain relief housing (section A).
- 2. Insert the connection strip into the lower part of the strain relief housing (section B).
- 3. Tighten the cable tie and remove the plastic tab (section C).
- 4. Attach the upper part of the strain relief housing by snapping it onto the lower part (section D).
- You have mounted the strain relief housing.
To remove the strain relief housing, proceed as follows:
- 1. Use your fingers to bend the latching lugs on the lower part slightly outwards (see Fig. 14).
- 2. Lever the upper part off the lower part.
- 3. Cut the cable tie.
- You have removed the strain relief housing.
