Model WU11
Interconnection/Extension Cable for SENCOM

®

 Sensor

1 General

1.1 Introduction

The WU11 interconnection and extension cable is 

specified for reliable transfer of digital signals between 

the SENCOM sensors and Yokogawa FLXA analyzer.  It 

is especially designed to be installed in a heavy industrial 

environment. The double shielded cable will protect the 

connected devices for interference from high voltages 

and currents which are present on other cables. The 

cable is specified to be used in IP67 applications, allowing 

it to be submerged as a whole. The cable has a wide 

temperature operation range which is sufficient for most 

of the applications. The materials used for the cable are 

flame retardant to resist the spread of fire.

On one side of the interconnection WU11 cable you 

will find a 5 pin-female connector for connection to the 

Yokogawa SENCOM Sensor is. The other side has 5 

wired pins for connection to the terminal strip of the 

Yokogawa FLXA analyzer. The cable can be ordered in 

four different lengths. To extend the distance between the 

sensor and the connection box or the Flexa terminal, the 

WU11 is also available as an extension cable. This cable 

has on opposite ends a male and a female connector 

fitted to extend the communication distance between 

sensor and transmitter.

1.2 Unpacking & Checking

Upon delivery, unpack the cable carefully and inspect 

it to ensure that it is not damaged during shipment. If 

damage is found, retain the original packing materials 

and immediately notify the carrier and the relevant local 

Yokogawa Sales office. Make sure the Model Code 

and Serial Number on the cable are the same as on the 

packing list.
