Mounting concentrator board junction boxes

Mount the concentrator board junction box within close proximity of the motor.

Route the flyleads from the motor bearing and sled sensors to this enclosure.

Mount it in a location that allows for easy accessibility and maintenance.

Each concentrator board supports up to 6 smart sensors. Sensor terminals 1-6 are clearly marked on the circuit board.
