3.1 Installing unenclosed isolators
On new installations, if isolators are mounted in several rows orcolumns,
mount alternate rows or columns so that units face in opposite directions.
This allows safe- and hazardous-area wiring looms to be shared.
See figure 3.1 for isolator dimensions.
Note: All MTL products are tested for electrical safety to EN 61010 to
comply with the EC Low Voltage Directive

Making connections
a) Trim back the insulation of conductors by 12mm.
b) Check the terminal assignments shown in section 6 or on the
side label of the unit.
c) Insert conductors according to the terminal assignments and
tighten screws.

3.1.6 Earth leakage detection Optional insulation

An MTL4220 earth leakage detector can be used with a number of displacement
connectors
MTL5000 Series units to detect hazardous-area earth faults which can
then be rectified without needing to shut down the loop ('no-fail'
operation). On units with a single-channel input, the MTL4220 is
connected to terminal 3 and on units with two-channel inputs, to
terminals 3 and 6. Units which can be used with an MTL4220 are:
MTL5011B MTL5012 MTL5014 MTL5015

MTL5017 MTL5018 MTL5021 MTL5022
MTL5023 MTL5024 MTL5025 MTL5061
N.B. HAZ1-3 or HAZ4-6 connectors are required.
3.1.7 Ambient temperature considerations

Series modules
4.1 MTL5000 power bus - Installation
and use
4.1.1 MTL5000 Series power bus
Power bus kits provide facilities for linking the power supply terminals
(13 and 14) of up to 32 installed MTL5000 Series units to a standard
24V power supply. Buses consist of chains of power plugs and are
available in different lengths to suit various numbers of modules as
follows:
Number of modules Kit ID code
(contains grey power plugs for 24V dc supply) OR
1 to 8 PB-8T
9 to 16 PB-16T
17 to 24 PB-24T
25 to 32 PB-32T
4.1.2. Installation
4.1.2.1 Check to make sure the bus length is correct for the
number of modules involved.
4.1.2.2 If the number of modules is less than the maximum number
the chain will support, cut off the surplus power plugs at
the tail end of the chain - leaving a 'new' tail end.
4.1.2.3 Insert power plugs into the power terminals on the safe-
area side of each module in sequence.
4.1.2.4 Connect the power supply source to the tail end of the
chain (using the insulation displacement connectors
(Scotchloks) provided if required).

4.2 Earth rail and tagging accessories Nickel-plated; supplied with two push fasteners, one earth-rail clamp
(14mm, 35mm2) and one earth cable clamp (10mm, 16mm2).
This section explains how to specify and assemble earth rail and tagging
strip accessories for the MTL5000 Series. Note: ERB57S is the preferred choice of earth-rail bracket. It is usually
fitted in the upper slot on insulating mounting block IMB57.
The accessories consist of mounting brackets, earth rails, tagging strips
and associated parts. They provide facilities for earthing, terminating
cable screens and tagging (identifying) the positions of individual units.

INM5000-6 Jul 2010 4
Where the earth rail is required to be positioned at a lower height and
to allow access to the IMB57 mounting screws, the straight earth-rail
bracket ERB57S can be inserted in the lower slot, but only after
insulating mounting blocks IMB57 are clamped to the DIN rail. This may
not be possible if, for example, trunking is fitted. In this case, fit offset
earth-rail bracket ERB57O (see figure 4.7) in the upper slot: the

already fitted.

All cables into the enclosures must be glanded to IP65 standards to
maintain this rating for the enclosure as a whole. Cable glands and
gland plates are not supplied. Glanding requirements vary for each
enclosure as follows:

On the DX070, 'knockout' holes are provided, in two different sizes
(15.5 mm and 21 mm), on the side faces of the base. See table 5.7 for
recommended cable glands.
Note: The enclosure may have three or four knockout holes on each
side depending on the manufacturer. Consequently, there may be a
choice of either six or eight positions for cable glands.

The DX170 can accommodate one gland plate on each side - see figure

7 MAINTENANCE
WARNING
If an isolator is faulty, DO NOT make repairs or
modifications as these may affect the intrinsic safety of
the unit.
Note: Limit tests and routine maintenance to those described in this

section and section 4. Return any isolator identified as faulty to the MTL
group company or representative from which it was purchased, for
repair or replacement.
7.1 Routine maintenance

Occasionally check the general condition of the installation to make sure
that no deterioration has occurred. At least once every two years (and
more frequently for particularly harsh environments), check that:
◆ isolators are of the types specified in the relevant documentation;
◆ isolators and connectors are correctly and legibly tagged,
connectors are plugged into the corresponding isolators and tag
details given comply with the relevant documentation;
◆ isolators are securely clipped to the DIN rail;
◆ all cable connections are properly made to the plugs;
◆ all plugs are fully inserted;
◆ all connecting cables are of the specified type and rating, are
correctly routed and segregated (particularly when fitted in
enclosures), and are not frayed or otherwise damaged;
◆ all cable screens are properly earthed;
◆ there is no sign of damage or corrosion.
7.2 Enclosures
The only maintenance needed for enclosures is cleaning and periodic
visual inspections. Clean external surfaces only, using soap and water;
do not use chemical solvents or proprietary cleaning fluids. Every year
(more frequently in harsh environments), inspect enclosures and check
that:
◆ they are attached securely to their mountings;
◆ any accumulation of water inside has been removed (using the
drain plug, if fitted);
◆ cable gland nuts are tight;
◆ there are no signs of any damage;
◆ all connections are properly made.
