Connection

 

  • M23 connector on the terminal box (optionally with or without temperature sensor)
  • Terminal strip in the terminal box (optionally with or without temperature sensor)
  • M23 connector with 0.36 m cable directly on the encoder (without temperature sensor)
  • Integrated encoder connector on the fan guard side (can be preassembled and plugged in the field); optionally with M23 connector; without temperature sensor
  • Integrated encoder connector at the rear of the fan guard (can be preassembled and plugged in the field); optionally with M23 connector; without temperature sensorNote that the permissible ambient temperature of the motor is limited with this connection variant. Contact SEW‑EURODRIVE with regard to this.
