REX640 Installation Manual

Arc protection is used to detect arc situations in air-insulated metal-clad switchgear.

  1. Drill a Ø 10 mm (0.3937 in) hole in the wall of the supervised space.

    D
    19.0 mm (0.7480 in)
  2. Fit the lens sensor into the hole and fasten it with a self-tapping M3 screw.

    Alternatively, the lens sensor can be fastened with a cable tie. To do this, secure the cable tie to a suitable point of attachment on the cubicle wall and wrap the cable tie tightly around the sensor.
