Wiring
Note the following when making
electrical connections:
The system and the control
cabinet must be at the
same ground potential.
To ensure EMC, which Balluff
confirms with the CE Marking, the
following instructions must be
followed.
The cable shield must be
grounded on the controller side,
i.e., connect to the protection
ground.

Calculating the voltage drop in the line
The supply voltage must be 5 V ±5%. The power supply must ensure this
voltage and also compensate for the voltage drop in the line.
Use the following formula to calculate the voltage drop in the line:
U
= R
x l x [n x 3.1/R

U
= Voltage drop in the line in Volt

The connection on the sensor side
depends on the configuration.
For enhanced EMC requirements
(e.g., commutator of an electric
motor), isolate the sensing head
from the machine (Fig. 4-1).
When routing the cable between
the transducer, controller and
power supply avoid proximity to
high-voltage lines due to noise
coupling.
Especially critical are stray
coupling caused by AC harmonics
(e.g., from phase controls), against
which the cable shield offers little
protection.

cables may be used if their
construction, shielding and routing
resist external noise fields.
Important:
In spite of a voltage drop in the
line a nominal operating voltage of
5 V ±5% must be ensured (see
Section 5.3).
5.3
To avoid a voltage drop in the line a
regulated power supply with Sense
input should be used (Fig. 5-1). If
that is not possible or desired, the

cable should be connected parallel
to the +5 V and GND line (Fig. 5-2).

Sample calculation
Under the following conditions:

Reference pulse is evaluated
Control input impedance = 120 Ω
Resulting voltage drop is:
