CTC mini-MAXX Boxes provide a common location for routine data collection with
portable data collectors by bringing sensor cables into 1-4 channel termination
points. CTC mini-MAXX Boxes provide BNC outputs for each channel.
MX542 Overview
The MX542 Series is a powder-coated aluminum junction box that provides
connection of the three-conductor input wiring of up to two dual output vibration
and temperature accelerometers or piezo velocity sensors to a portable data
collection unit. Each sensor is wired to BNC connectors via an internal terminal
strip that is located on the reverse side of the BNC panel. Four connections per
channel are clearly labeled along the terminal strip – signal/power, common and
ground with the shield drain wire earth grounded via the aluminum enclosure.
Each MX42 features a hinged cover door with a snap latch to protect the BNC
connectors when not in use. Located on the inside of the door is a measurement
location card that the user can use to identify and label each BNC connector.
Rated for NEMA 4X (IP66), the box is also resistant to hose directed fluid and
corrosion and is rated for temperatures ranging from -58° to 180° F (-50° to 82°
C). This mini-MAXX box measures 3.54 in. W x 4.53 in. H (89.9 mm W x 115.1 mm
H), allowing it to be installed in many locations.
