Site Power Wiring Recommendations
The table below describes the conditions{ XE "Scanner installation:Site power wiring recommendations" } { XE "Power wiring recommendations" }for power wiring at a scanner site.
Condition | Description |
Dedicated Feeder | Run a separate dedicated feeder from the building main power panel to |
| the branch power panel serving the 5000i system. The cabling should be |
| of sufficient diameter to produce no less than 110V at the outlet when |
| the 5000i is connected and powered on. This feeder should be a |
| minimum of 30 amp service to allow for future growth of the system. |
|
|
Dedicated Isolated/ | An isolated/dedicated ground is required. Run this ground conductor as |
Insulated Ground | an uninterrupted circuit from the power panel to the 5000i system branch |
| panel. The gauge of this conductor must be at least as large as that of |
| the AC circuit conductors in all stages of the circuit. |
|
|
Panel Branch Circuits | All branch circuits leaving tne 5000i branch power panel should be at |
| least 10 AWG copper wire. There should be no circuits from this power |
| panel serving devices that are not part of the 5000i system. |
| One branch circuit from this power panel should be dedicated at the |
| scanner (this circuit will also service the computer and monitor), and |
| there should be at least one additional dedicated circuit for each |
| additional scanner. |
|
|
Additional Utility | Provide additional convenience outlets in the vicinity of the 5000i |
Convenience Connectors | scanner. Connect these outlets (may be used for vacuums, paper |
| joggers, and other electrical devices) to a branch panel other than the |
| scanner branch panel to provide maximum noise isolation for the 5000i |
| system components. |
|
|
Scanner Electrical | Dedicate one 15 amp (120 VAC) or 7.5 amp (220 VAC) circuit to each |
Connections | 5000i scanner at the site. All may be served from the same branch |
| panel, provided its rated capacity is not exceeded. |
|
|
Electrical Outlets{ XE | All 120V outlets for the 5000i scanner should be Hubble |
"Electrical outlet" \i } | equivalent (NEMA |
| or equivalent. Outlets for the peripheral equipment should be of the type |
| and rating specified in the hardware reference manuals for the |
| equipment. |
| The quantity of outlets that must be provided for the peripheral |
| equipment varies according to system configuration. (See Panel Branch |
| circuits above.) Outlets should be located within 6 feet (2 meters) of the |
| working location of the equipment. |
