Connection of the Transducers
It is recommended to run the cables from the measuring point to the transmitter before connecting the transducers to
avoid load on the connectors.
Transducers with direct connection are already connected to the transmitter.
7.5.1
Connection of the Extension Cable to the Transmitter
The transmitter has 2 cable glands for the connection of the transducers. If the transmitter has only one measuring chan-
nel, one of the openings is closed with a blind plug.
• Remove the cable gland for the connection of the transducers (see Fig. 7.2).
• Open the cable gland. The compression part remains in the cap nut (see Fig. 7.4).
• Push the extension cable through the cap nut, the compression part and the basic part of the cable gland.
• Prepare the extension cable.
• Press the cap nut with the compression part on the cable until the thin rim of the compression part is flush with the exter-
nal cable jacket (see Fig. 7.4).
• Cut the external shield of the transducer cable and brush it back.
• Insert the end of the extension cable into the housing.
• Screw the gasket ring side of the basic part into the housing.
• Fix the cable gland by screwing the cap nut onto the basic part (see Fig. 7.4).
• Connect the core and the shield correctly to the terminals of the transmitter (see Fig. 7.3, Fig. 7.5 and Tab. 7.1).
Note!
If transducers are replaced or added, the sensor module also has to be replaced or added (see sec-
tion 7.9).
Attention!
Observe the "Safety Instructions for the Use in Explosive Atmosphere" (see document SIFLUXUS).

Attention!
For good high frequency shielding, it is important to ensure good electrical contact between the exter-
nal shield and the cap nut (and the housing).
