Installation of transmitter optics housing
Install the cables, hybrid and sensor connection cable, at the transmitter optics housing
according to Figure 3.2. Cables are fixed in the optics housing with gaskets. Always use lubricant
on the gaskets before installing, otherwise these will be very difficult to remove later. Multi-
mode fiber (SMA connector) and 24 V are just connected straight through to the receiver.
Note
Always protect the single-mode fiber (E2000 connector) from dust. Do not remove the plastic
vial until the cable is firmly fastened in the optics housing.
Figure 4-2

Always use lubricant on the gaskets before installing, otherwise they will be very difficult to
remove later.
Connect the multi-mode fiber to the sensor-board as shown below.
