Compur Statox 4120
Example of cable specifications:
Max. cable capacity:
l x C
L
= C
o
- C
i
= 107 nF
Max. cable inductivity:
l x L
L
= L
o
- L
i
= 6,6 mH
Diameter:
> 0,75 mm

The Statox 4120 Systems will work reliably if the electrical resistance is : R
L
< 50
Ω
.
Most commonly the maximum length is limited by the cable capacity.
Example:
Cable diameter is 1,0 mm
2
(0,04 in), C
L
= 90 pF/m, L
L
= 0.7mH/km, R
L
/ km = 19,5
Ω
.
The maximum cable length results to be
l =
m
pF
Ci
Co
/
90
−
= 1189 m (3900 ft), the electrical resistance is
R
L
= 2 x 1.189km (0,738 miles) x 19,5
Ω
/km = 46,4
Ω
. So R
L
< 50
Ω
is OK.
Sensor head connection procedure:
Open sensor head, remove cable gland.
Connect signal cable to terminals X3/1 und X3/2, polarity does not matter.
(DIN EN 60079-14 chapter 12 is applicable)
Fasten cable gland.
Connect battery pack: - Blue to terminal X4/1
- Orange to terminal X4/2
- Red to terminal X4/3
Connect signal cable to backplane of the rack. (See chapter 3.2)
