o Push the insert back into the hood/housing.
o Fix the assembly tightening the top locking screw and tightening the cable gland nut
on the back of the hood/housing.
MBS Unit with DC power supply source:
- Nominal voltage: 24 VDC (Range: from 21.6 to 31.2 VDC).
- Use the power cable connector provided with the MBS Unit to connect the MBS Unit to
the power supply source. Use a cable of 3 wires with weather protection and the
following features:
Cable diameter: 0.39 in - 0.55 in.
Cable section: 6 mm

(AWG 9) (0.6/1KV).
Maximum cable length

:
One MBS Unit: 92.96 yd
Two MBS Units: 45.93 yd
UL VW-1 certified power supply cable is needed
- Ensure that the connection is made in the correct way (Positive, Negative and Earth)
following the next steps:
o Strip cable and wires (stripping length 0.31 in - 0.35 in).
NOTE: The Earth cable must be 0.08 in longer.

The greater the cable length, the greater the voltage drop in it. The specified length has been calculated to ensure minimum
operating voltage of the MBS Unit, assuming a minimum voltage of 24V at the output of the power system and a typical resistivity of
copper wire ≤ 0.0172 Ω mm
