Installation and Checkout
3.1.
Mounting
Mount the sensor in such a way that the case is not twisted or warped. Using three hard points
along the front and back edges or a slightly compliant mounting system are the best methods. Do
not clamp or squeeze the sensor case excessively. If the case is distorted, the sensitivity and
accuracy of the sensor may be affected.
3.2.
Cabling
The AR1000 has a multipurpose cable with solder tail wires. The standard cable length is 6.6 feet
(2 m) and longer cable lengths are available. Connection and termination according to the
instructions is essential for correct sensor operation. Read the wire descriptions in Section 4.1for
connection information.
Connect the cable’s 12-pin connector (Binder series 423) to the plug (Binder series 723) on the
back cover of the AR1000 sensor. Be sure to tightly secure the connection.
