Interface Cables
As of January 1, 1996, most products shipped to the European Community must comply with the
EMC Directive 89/336/EEC, which covers radio frequency emissions and immunity tests. In
addition, as of January 1, 1997, most products shipped to the European Community must also
comply with the Product Safety Directive 92/59/EEC and the Low-Voltage Directive 73/23/EEC,
which cover general safety practices for design and workmanship. MKS products that meet
these requirements are identified by application of the CE Mark.
This MKS product meets CE requirements, per EMC Directive 89/336/EEC. To ensure
compliance when installed, an overall metal braided shielded cable, grounded at both ends, is
required during use. No additional installation requirements exist to ensure compliance with
Directives 92/59/EEC and 73/23/EEC.
Note
1. An overall metal braided shielded cable, properly grounded at both
ends, is required during use to meet CE specifications.
2. To order a metal braided shielded cable, add an “S” after the cable
type designation. For example, to order a standard connection cable,
for a 690 transducer, use part number CB270-2 for a metal, braided,
shielded cable use part number CB270S-2.
System Interface Cables
The system interface cables include cables to connect the 670 unit to a transducer or to a Type
274 multiplexer unit which, in turn, can connect to a maximum of three transducers.
