Applying the compound
1
Tear the tab off the tube of silicon dielectric compound that
came with the sensor.
2
Squeeze about half of the compound on the connector at the
base of the sensor.
Connecting the cable
Figure 12.
Cable run through pole (left) and through conduit (right)
1
Insert the cable connector into the sensor connector. Be aware
that it is a keyed connector.
Note.
The V sensor
uses an 8-conductor
cable that can
be ordered from
Wavetronix. It’s also
possible to order
a retrofit V with a
legacy connector;
this would use the
older 9-conductor
SmartSensor cable.
