Avoid awkward electrical connections by ensuring that the flex tail and controller are
aligned such that the tail remains straight (90
°
), not pulled or twisted in an odd angle
from the sensor.
Recommendation for Flex Tail Connection
If necessary, to make the sensor flex tail reach to the controller location, you can extend
the length of the tail with a one-to-one, non-shielded, flat ribbon flex tail extender. The
connector must be compatible with the connector manufacturer, i.e., Amp should connect
to Amp. Be sure to use tin compatible contact pins.
Not Recommended:
Do Not Twist the Tail
Recommended:
Wrap Tail Smoothly
