INSTALLATION SPECIFICATIONS ( continued )
1. Cable Guides
Use self‑locking cable guides (

AT RIGHT
)
in cable channels to retain the sensor
cable. Cable guides are silicone rubber
tubes with a slot in them to accommodate
the sensor cable; the cable guides fit
snugly within the cable channel dimensions
provided.
2. Cable Pocket Covers
If excess cable pockets are present, it
may be useful to provide a cover (

RIGHT
) for the cable pocket with which to
retain extra cable. Though RJG does not
currently provide a solution specifically
for this application, plastic or metal discs
with a centrally‑located hole, retained by a
single bolt through the center, can be used
to easily retain cable within the pocket.
Alternatively, a bobbin‑style device can
be used similarly to retain cable within a
pocket.
3. Cable Clips
Cables may also be retained in channels
using cable clips (

AT RIGHT
) ; RJG does
not currently provide this solution. Clips
can be formed from sheet or plate metal
and retained by machine screws. The clips
can supplement or replace the use of
silicone rubber cable guides, enabling an
easier assembly of the tool.

4. Cable Retention Putty
• Use cable retention putty to retain
sensors where self‑locking cable guides
will not be effective, such as multiple
sensor cable channels.
