WITH A SUSPENSION CABLE -
852 Stainless Steel Suspension Cable
WITH AN INTERFACE CABLE ASSEMBLY -
851 Direct Read Interface Cable
Designed for our non-vented data logger models the opposite end of the 851 Direct Read Interface Cable
assembly provides simple yet elegant TruBlue connection to the above-ground environment. Assembled
with a compact overmolded Hirose electrical connection the 851 Direct Read Interface Cable connects to
the device via a communications cable. For this there are several options (See Page 10):
853 Interface Cable
The opposite end of the 853 Interface Cable assembly provides simple yet elegant TruBlue connection to
the above-ground environment. The assembly incorporates an innovative vent filter that provides lifetime
moisture protection for vented gage water level data loggers. A GORE-TEX plug prevents water droplets
from entering the filter while allowing air to pass freely to the internal silica gel desiccant. The filter,
housed in corrosion-resistant grade 316 stainless steel, provides surge protection, and features a
compact Hirose electrical connector. The 853 Interface Cable connects to the device via a
communications cable. For this there are several options (See Page 10):
NOTE:
When deploying a data logger with an Interface Cable Assembly, it is
very important to make sure the electrical connector is covered with the
supplied cap.
Absolute dataloggers typically use the 852 Suspension
Wire when deployed (unless the ability to communicate
without extraction is desired, in which case an interface
cable can be used. Connecting an absolute data logger to
a computer requires an
850-00857 USB to Backshell
communications cable
. This cable has a design that
allows easy connection once you remove the logger’s
backshell.
