Part 5 – Sensor Electrical Connection
5.1 General
The sensor cable can be quickly connected to the TCSMA
terminal strip by matching the wire colors on the cable
conductors. A junction box is suggested to provide a quick-
disconnect point for the sensor, or a break point for very long
sensor cable runs. Route signal cable away from AC power
lines, adjustable frequency drives, motors, or other noisy
electrical signal lines. Do not run sensor or signal cables in
conduit that contains AC power lines or motor leads.
5.2 Direct
Sensor
Connection
Route the sensor cable into the enclosure through the center
PG-11 cord grip only. If the cord-grip devices are used for
sealing the cable, make sure the cord-grips are snugly
tightened after electrical connections have been made to
prevent moisture incursion. When stripping cables, leave
adequate length for connections in the transmitter enclosure,
as shown below.
