Connection line with Ex-Plug-Connector
The DUSTHUNTER SP100 Ex-2K is connected to the control unit with a special plug
connector, the “Ex-Plug-Connector”. The plug connector for the measuring device side is
equipped with a pressure-resistant, dust-proof housing which is screwed over the plug after
connecting the measuring device and secured with a screw and is part of the protection
concept. The connection line with the Ex-plug connector is available in different lengths
(
see “Connection technology”, page 126
). The operator is responsible for assessing the
suitability of the connecting cables to be used in explosion-proof areas.
