Indigo200 wiring options
1
Wiring from the back: cut the seal open and nest the cable in the groove on the back of the transmitter base
2
Wiring through the rubber lead-through on the bottom of the transmitter
CAUTION

The IP65 rating of the transmitter applies only when the wiring is done through the bottom lead-through (see option 2), and the seal at the back of the transmitter (see option 1) is left intact.

Only cut open the seal at the back of the transmitter if you are installing the transmitter to a location where issues such as water or dust ingress through the opened seal can be ruled out.

Note that when the optional mains power supply INDIGOPOWER24VSP (wired through the back of the transmitter) is used, the IP65 rating does not apply. See Indigo200 series user guidance at docs.vaisala.com for more information.
  1. To wire the input/output cable through the back of the transmitter:
    1. Cut off as much of the seal on the transmitter base as is needed to fit your cable through the opening.
    2. Lead the cable through the cut in the seal.
    3. Nest the cable inside the groove on the back of the transmitter as shown in Indigo200 wiring options, and attach strain relief as needed.
    4. If you wire only through the back, plug or seal the other lead-through on the bottom.
      To protect the transmitter from water or dust ingress through the opened seal at the back, ensure that the back of the transmitter rests flat against the installation surface. Always nest the cable inside the groove on the back of the transmitter, so that the cable is not placed between the back of the transmitter and the installation surface.
  2. To wire the input/output cable through the rubber lead-through on the bottom:
    1. Push the input/output cable through the lead-through.
    2. The lead-through provides strain relief and holds the cable in place. Tightening is not required.
    The recommended cable diameter for wiring through the rubber lead-through is 7–8 mm. If you use a different cable size, test that the strain relief works as intended.
