Temperature rating of cables: Enclosure ambient tempe 35 ºC or more
Note: Ensure to secure the minimum bending radius of the cable. The minimum bending radius is either the value shown in the cable
manufacturer’s specifications or six-fold of the cable conductor diameter, whichever is bigger should be applied.

Signal cable termination
Connect the cable either with the cable coating stripped (without a sleeve) or with a sleeve
attached.
When using a sleeve
At the cable end, peel off the coating and attach a sleeve. The specifications of the sleeve differ,
depending on the cable thickness. Provide cable termination according to the following figure and
