Interface Cables
As of January 1, 1996, most products shipped to the European Community must comply with
the EMC Directive 89/336/EEC, which covers radio frequency emissions and immunity tests.
In addition, as of January 1, 1997, some products shipped to the European Community
must also comply with the Product Safety Directive 92/59/EEC and Low Voltage Directive
73/23/EEC, which cover general safety practices for design and workmanship. MKS
products that meet these requirements are identified by application of the CE Mark.
To ensure compliance with EMC Directive 89/336/EEC, an overall metal braided shielded cable,
properly grounded at both ends, is required during use. No additional installation requirements are
necessary to ensure compliance with Directives 92/59/EEC and 73/23/EEC.
Note 1. Overall metal braided shielded cables, properly grounded at both ends,
are required to meet CE specifications and are recommended if the
environment contains high EMI/RFI noise.
2. To order metal braided shielded cables, add an “S” after the cable
type designation. For example, to order a standard connection cable
to connect the 870/872 unit to a 146 unit using a cable with a Bendix
connector, use part number CB700-3-10; for a shielded cable, use part
number CB700S-3-10.
The 870/872 transducer is compatible with most pressure, flow, flow ratio, and throttling valve
controllers. Interface cables to connect the 870/872 unit to a MKS controller or power
supply/readout can be purchased from MKS (refer to Table 6), or cables can be made provided
that the appropriate specifications contained herein are maintained. For cables connecting to non-
MKS products, MKS can provide normal shielding or braided shielded cable assemblies in a
nominal 6’ (1.8 m) or 10’ (3 m) length, terminating in flying leads (pigtail) fashion at both ends.
