 TM3 Installation

Functional Ground (FE) on the DIN Rail

The DIN Rail for your TM3 system is common with the functional ground (FE) plane and must be
mounted on a conductive backplane.

WARNING
UNINTENDED EQUIPMENT OPERATION
Connect the DIN rail to the functional ground (FE) of your installation.
Failure to follow these instructions can result in death, serious injury, or equipment
damage.

Protective Ground (PE) on the Backplane

The protective ground (PE) is connected to the conductive backplane by a heavyduty wire, usually
a braided copper cable with the maximum allowable cable section.

Wiring Guidelines
The following rules must be applied when wiring a TM3 system:
z I/O and communication wiring must be kept separate from the power wiring. Route these 2 types
of wiring in separate cable ducting.
z Verify that the operating conditions and environment are within the specification values.
z Use proper wire sizes to meet voltage and current requirements.
z Use copper conductors (highly recommended).
z Use twisted-pair, shielded cables for analog, and/or fast I/O.
z Use twisted-pair, shielded cables for networks, and field bus.

WARNING
UNINTENDED EQUIPMENT OPERATION
z Use shielded cables for all fast I/O, analog I/O, and communication signals.
z Ground cable shields for all fast I/O, analog I/O, and communication signals at a single point1.
z Route communications and I/O cables separately from power cables.
Failure to follow these instructions can result in death, serious injury, or equipment
damage.

1Multipoint
grounding is permissible if connections are made to an equipotential ground plane
dimensioned to help avoid cable shield damage in the event of power system short-circuit currents.
NOTE: Surface temperatures may exceed 60° C. To conform to IEC 61010 standards, route
primary wiring (wires connected to power mains) separately and apart from secondary wiring (extra
low voltage wiring coming from intervening power sources). If that is not possible, double insulation
is required such as conduit or cable gains.

Protecting Outputs from Inductive Load Damage

Depending on the load, a protection circuit may be needed for the outputs on the controllers and
certain modules. Inductive loads using DC voltages may create voltage reflections resulting in
overshoot that will damage or shorten the life of output devices.

CAUTION
OUTPUT CIRCUIT DAMAGE DUE TO INDUCTIVE LOADS
Use an appropriate external protective circuit or device to reduce the risk of inductive direct
current load damage.
Failure to follow these instructions can result in injury or equipment damage.

If your controller or module contains relay outputs, these types of outputs can support up to
240 Vac. Inductive damage to these types of outputs can result in welded contacts and loss of
control. Each inductive load must include a protection device such as a peak limiter, RC circuit or
flyback diode. Capacitive loads are not supported by these relays.

WARNING
RELAY OUTPUTS WELDED CLOSED
z Always protect relay outputs from inductive alternating current load damage using an
appropriate external protective circuit or device.
z Do not connect relay outputs to capacitive loads.
Failure to follow these instructions can result in death, serious injury, or equipment
damage.

Protective circuit A: this protection circuit can be used for both AC and DC load power circuits.

z C represents a value from 0.1 to 1 μF.

z R represents a resistor of approximately the same resistance value as the load.

52 EIO0000001408 04/2014
 TM3 Installation

Protective circuit B: this protection circuit can be used for DC load power circuits.

Use a diode with the following ratings:

z Reverse withstand voltage: power voltage of the load circuit x 10.
z Forward current: more than the load current.
Protective circuit C: this protection circuit can be used for both AC and DC load power circuits.

z In applications where the inductive load is switched on and off frequently and/or rapidly, ensure
that the continuous energy rating (J) of the varistor exceeds the peak load energy by 20 % or
more.

DC Power Supply Characteristics

Overview
This section provides the characteristics of the DC power supply.

Power Supply Voltage Range

If the specified voltage range is not maintained, outputs may not switch as expected. Use
appropriate safety interlocks and voltage monitoring circuits.

DANGER
FIRE HAZARD
z Use only the recommended wire sizes for the current capacity of the I/O channels and power
supplies.
z For relay output (2 A) wiring, use conductors of at least 0.5 mm2 (AWG 20) with a temperature
rating of at least 80 ° C (176 ° F).
z For common conductors of relay output wiring (7 A), or relay output wiring greater than 2 A,
use conductors of at least 1.0 mm2 (AWG 16) with a temperature rating of at least 80 ° C
(176 ° F).
Failure to follow these instructions will result in death or serious injury.

WARNING
UNINTENDED EQUIPMENT OPERATION
Do not exceed any of the rated values specified in the environmental and electrical characteristics
tables.
Failure to follow these instructions can result in death, serious injury, or equipment
damage.

54 EIO0000001408 04/2014
 TM3 Installation

DC Power Supply Characteristics

The 24 Vdc power supplies must be rated Safety Extra Low Voltage (SELV) or Protective Extra
Low Voltage (PELV) according to IEC 61140. These power supplies are isolated between the
electrical input and output circuits of the power supply.

WARNING
POTENTIAL OF OVERHEATING AND FIRE
z Do not connect the equipment directly to line voltage.
z Use only isolating PELV or SELV power supplies to supply power to the equipment1.
Failure to follow these instructions can result in death, serious injury, or equipment
damage.

1For compliance to UL (Underwriters Laboratories) requirements, the power supply must also be
of a type Class II with a maximum power output availability of less than 100 VA (approximately 4 A
at nominal voltage). A Class II circuit requires dry indoor use only in non-hazardous locations, and
must be grounded. You must separate Class II circuits from other circuits. If a non-Class II power
source is used, either power supply or transformer, you must impose a current limiting device such
as a fuse or a circuit breaker with a maximum rating of 4 A, but never exceeding the limits indicated
in the electric characteristics and wiring diagrams for this equipment. If the indicated rating of the
electrical characteristics or wiring diagrams are greater than 4 A, multiple Class II power supplies
may be used.
