5.2.1 CUTTING
Use a suitable cutter to cut the sensor cable at the required position.
5.2.2 STRIPPING
Strip the sensor cable ends using the following procedure:
1. Score the sensor cable jacket with a suitable
cable-knife approximately 20 cm from the end.
2. Check the orientation of the flexible flat cable.
3. Break the cable jacket by bending the sensor cable at the score, taking into
account the orientation of the flat cable.
4. Pull off the jacket and shield carefully.
5. Cut off the strain-relief threads.
6. Cut off the end of the flexible cable perpendicularly to its length (90° cut).
5.2.2.1 STRIPPING LS SENSOR CABLES
Sensor cables with low smoke jacket material are marked with the additional imprint
LS
.
The material used in this type of sensor cable sticks to the flexible flat cable, therefore requiring an
intermediate step inbetween checking the orientation (2
nd
step above) and breaking the cable jacket (3
rd
step above).
Use adjustable joint pliers to apply light pressure to the sensor cable at the edges of the flat cable. Apply
pressure repeatedly from the score to the end of the sensor cable to “break away" the filling material
from the flexible flat cable. The jacket and shield can now be pulled off as shown in step 4 above.
