INSTRUMENT PROTECTION

3.1

CABLE SPLICING AND TERMINATION

Terminal boxes with sealed cable entries are available from

GEOKON

for all types

of applications. These allow many instruments to be terminated at one location
with complete protection of the lead wires. The interior panel of the terminal box
can have built-in jacks or a single connection with a rotary position selector
switch. Contact

GEOKON

for specific application information.

Because the vibrating wire output signal is a frequency rather than a current or
voltage, variations in cable resistance have little effect on instrument readings;
therefore, splicing of cables has no ill effects, and in some cases may in fact be
beneficial. The cable used for making splices should be a high quality twisted
pair type, with 100% shielding and an integral shield drain wire.

When splicing,

it is very important that the shield drain wires be spliced together

.

Always maintain polarity by connecting color to color.

Splice kits recommended by

GEOKON

incorporate casts that are placed around

the splice and are then filled with epoxy to waterproof the connections. When
properly made, this type of splice is equal or superior to the cable in strength
and electrical properties. Contact

GEOKON

for splicing materials and additional

cable splicing instructions.

Terminate a cable by stripping and tinning the individual conductors and then
connecting them to the patch cord of a readout box. Alternatively, use a
connector to plug directly into the readout box or to a receptacle on a special
patch cord.

3.2

PROTECTION FROM MECHANICAL DAMAGE

It is important that you protect the crackmeter from damage.

GEOKON

makes

steel cover plates, Model 4420-7, for this purpose.

GEOKON

makes them using

sheet steel formed into a channel shape. The standard cover plate is long
enough to cover the two-inch range crackmeter; longer range crackmeters use
multiple cover plates tack-welded together.

FIGURE 7:

Typical Cover Plate Installation

The mounting nut and washer should be tightened only loosely to enable the
cover to slide on the 3/8 threaded rods. An extra nut is provided as a locknut.
Critical dimensions of the extended range covers are shown in the table below.
