Chapter 2 Installing the LVDT/A & LVDT/D
In order to maintain compliance with the EMC Directive 2004/108/EC the following installation recommendations
should be followed.
Inputs:
Analogue
Output:
Use individually screened twisted multipair cable. (e.g. FE 585 - 646)
The pairs should be :
pins 1 & 6
pins 2 & 5
pins 3 & 4
Terminate all screens at pin 1 of the input. The screens should not be
connected at the transducer end of the cables.
Use screened twisted pair cable. (e.g. RS 626-4761)
Terminate screen at pin 1 of the input.
The screen should not be connected at the host port.
Pin 1 of the input should be connected to a good Earth. The Earth connection
should have a cross-sectional area sufficient enough to ensure a low
impedance, in order to attenuate RF interference.
