Corrosion Protection
1 Corrosion Protection
In situations where corrosive materials are in use, there is potential for the cable connector to be
damaged. Protection from this corrosion is possible with a few simple adjustments to how the
sensor is installed.
1.1
Sensor Position
Position the sensor so no material comes into contact with the connector.
The sensor must remain in the main flow of the material at all times to produce
accurate measurements of the moisture.
1.2
Drip Loop
Although the connector is specified to withstand water ingress it is recommended to install the
sensor with a drip loop in the cable. See (Figure 27).

Protection Cover
Install a cover over the top of the sensor to deflect the material away from the connector. (See
Figure 28). Self-amalgamating tape can also be used to seal the connector
