5 Connect the sensor to the external
housing
5.1 Preparing the connection
Follow the instructions in the operating instructions manual of the
sensor.
5.2 Connection procedure
Note:
Only use the corresponding HF connection cable in the correct
length.
Make sure that the markings (serial no.) correspond on the individual
parts (sensor housing, instrument housing and HF connection cable).
The assembled HF connection cable has a straight N-plug on one
end and an N-angled plug on the other. Both plugs can be connected
to any side.
1. Remove the protective cover on the plug connector of the sensor
housing.
2. Insert the plug (straight plug or angle plug) of the HF connection
cable into the sensor housing and hand-screw the hexagon nut.
3. Tighten the hexagon nut of the plug with the fork wrench (SW 19)
with max. 3 Nm (2.212 lbf ft).
4. Secure the hexagon nut of the plug with the securing strap. For
this purpose, place the securing strap on one surface of the hexa-
gon nut and tighten it with an Allen key (size 4).
