Connectors
The sensor cables on the pulse operating systems can be lengthened by using
the 3M™ connectors included with the fixing pack. The cable to be joined must be
to the same specification as the integral sensor cable (LAPP Unitronic LIYY). It is
recommended that the total cable length should not exceed 6 metres.
Important!
do not use the 3m™ connectors to shorten the cable when replacing a
sensor. Only use the 3M™ connectors supplied with the fixing pack. After compressing
they will release sealant, the use of any other type of connector may cause operation
problems. cable / sheath ends must not be exposed to wet conditions and must
terminate within a sealed enclosure or a fully sealed cable joint.
1.
insert the wire ends into the 3m™ connectors, make sure that they are fully
pushed into the connectors so that the ends are under the jointing blades.
Note!
do not strip the wires, the jointing blades will make the connection through
the outer sheath.
2.
using a pair of pliers, compress the connector to complete the connection.
