• The cable must be effectively protected against damage. Abrasion or sharp-edged objects
might damage the cable. This can lead to failure of the unit or make ATEX-conform
operation impossible.
• The cable is intended for fixed laying. Minimum bending radius: 15 x cable diameter.
• The cable must not be bent or folded at the outlet of the metal sensor housing.
• Earthing of the metal sensing head is made via the metal machine chassis which is
connected to the sensor.
• The sensor must be installed so that no twisting forces can act on the cable or sensor.
• The connection cable of the sensor must only be connected to power supplies for passive
resistance sensors, intended and approved for the operation of the installation according
to DIN EN 60751.
• The electrical characteristic values of the unit must not be exceeded.
Max. operating voltage: 6 V

• Avoid electrostatic charging on units and cables.
• To avoid electrostatic charging clean the sensor with a damp cloth only.
• Do not mount the sensor in the dust flow.
• Avoid dust deposits on the sensors.
• In any case the user must check whether the supplied fixing accessories are appropriate
for the corresponding application with respect to the ATEX requirements. The supplied
fixing accessories are not to be considered as a recommendation by the manufacturer for
ATEX-conform installation.
• Steps must be taken to ensure the equalisation of potential of metal parts (housing and
fixing accessories).
• Note on the installation in dust atmosphere according to classification II 3D: The end of the
cable must be protected against the ingress of dust or be outside the hazardous area.
