5.0: Mechanical Installation
5.3: Cable
To minimise transducer failure due to cable damage, cable runs should be positioned well clear of moving components
and vulnerable working areas.
If the PUR cable is in a flex situation, then a minimum bend radius of 150 mm should be maintained.
A minimum bend radius of 1 mm is recommended for the wires coming out of the probe head. These wires should not
be subjected to regular bending.
If a cable is damaged, it is not possible to repair it without affecting the probe calibration. The complete assembly (Mini
Probe and PIE) must be replaced.
WARNING
When mounting the Mini Probe in a fixture, care must be taken as the probe can be damaged by the
application of twisting forces.
