Annex A – Shorten pressure probe cable
If required, you can shorten the pressure probe cable of an OTT PLS 500 indepen-
dently. This is useful in all cases, where the local conditions require a significantly
shorter cable length (a slightly too long pressure probe cable can also be looped –
taking into account the minimum bending radius).
Please note:
Shorten a pressure probe cable only under completely dry ambi-
ent conditions! If possible, do this in an interior (e.g. in a workshop). No moisture
may penetrate into the pressure compensation capillary!
Tools required
▶
OTT Stripping tool (order number: 99.000.136.9.5)
▶
Side cutting pliers
▶
Crimping pliers for end sleeves (+ end sleeves 0.25 mm²)
CAUTION Risk of cuts when trimming the pressure probe cable!
When trimming the pressure probe cable, the stripping tool/side cutting pliers
can cause injuries to the fingers or hands.
▶
Wear protective gloves when trimming the pressure sensor cable.
■
Shorten pressure probe cable by desired length.
■
Strip pressure probe cable with OTT stripping tool;
For dimensions, see Fig. A1:
Tip:
first practice stripping on a cable remnant.
– place the OTT stripping tool on the cable sheath and cut carefully by rotating
the tool; remove cable sheath;
– pinch off the cable shield at the cable sheath and remove it;
– pinch off and remove two black fillers at the end of the cable sheath;
– pinch off and remove the violet Kevlar-strain relief at the end of the cable
sheath;
– strip five individual wires with the OTT stripping tool.
■
Put end sleeves on the individual wires.
■
Shorten pressure compensation capillary to 15
±1
mm; do not cut at right angles
but at an angle!
■
Until final installation, protect the cable end from penetrating moisutre and dirt
by using the supplied transport protection box.
Please note: the cable shield must not be connected to earth/ground when
installing the OTT PLS 500!
