2.6.5 Earthing
To improve the operating security in lightning-prone areas
we suggest an additional earthing of the sensors via the inte-
grated earthing screw of the PROFESSIONAL-IX 3.0.
The following illustration shows the steps of installation of
an earthing connection with a cable clip and earthing screws
onto the sensor.

2.6.6 Power and signal connection
The PROFESSIONAL-IX sensors dispose of separate con-
nections for the heating supply and for the supply and signal
transmission of the sensor.
2.6.7 Connection of sensor electronic
PROFESSIONAL-IX sensors will be connected to a data
measuring system via the open cable end (see chapter 5).
The connecting cable is suitably installed along the mast
between the data evaluation device (indicating instrument or
data acquisition system) and the sensor. The cable must be
secured using appropriate cable ties (length depends on the
mast diameter).
The cable routing should be arranged in accordance with the
installation site. Make sure that the cable is secured by suit-
able cable binders.
For further details about the electrical connection of the sensor
please see paragraph „Dimensional drawings and electrical
connections“.
Lead the cable in a wide curve from the mast to the
bottom of the casing so that you can later easily
dismount the cable.
Please make sure the cable is protected from humidity on the
side of the data processing system resp. the power supply.
Generally, cable sockets that use a rubber joint to prevent
humidity from penetrating into the terminal box of the data
processing system provide suf
fi
cient protection.
To reduce the risk of inductive interference the ca-
ble must be properly grounded (screening on both
sides).
2.6.8 Safety
instructions
As the sensor is often mounted at considerable
heights, the appropriate safety instructions need
to be observed in the course of mounting. During
electrical installation works the respective AC/DC
must be switched off.
Please note that the sensor head can be very
hot!
The housing must not be opened by unauthorized
personnel!
3 Maintenance
The sensor design permits long periods of maintenance-free
operation.
We recommend a regular visual veri
fi
cation and functional
test of the wind sensors.
In case of speci
fi
c problems or dif
fi
culties do not hesitate to

For the long-term assurance of the function and accuracy of
the proposed components, we are pleased to offer you our
professional maintenance and calibration services.
4 Transports
In case it is necessary to ship or to transport the sensor, the
instrument must be carefully packed to prevent mechanical
in
fl
uences or other damages. It is recommended to use the
original packing.
