Do NOT kink FO cables! Observe bending radius of cable manufacturer.
Cable and wire types
Table 1:
Cables and wires according toDIN VDE 0888 part 3:
62.5 µm or 50 µm
Core diameter
62.5/125 µm Multi-mode graded-index fibre
50/125 µm glass fibre
Fibre
62.5/125 µm: 2,600 m
50/125 µm: 1,400 m
Range
Recommendation:
<
3.0 dB/km
Damping coefficient
Remove outer sheathing of FO cable at a length of approx. 25 cm to enable ring
wiring in the terminal compartment.

Plug type FSMA
Controls mounted to wall bracket
In the event of heavy vibration of the valve, we recommend mounting the actuator
controls separately from the actuator on a wall bracket. For information about the
wall bracket, refer to operation instructions for the actuator.
