3.4 Transmitter / Sensor Cable Connections

Caution.
Make connections only as shown.
Twist the screen wire of D1 / TFE + D2 with the outer screen drain wire and sleeve them.
For standard (non-cathodically protected) systems, connect the drain wire to the earth screw.
For cathodically protected systems, connect the drain wire to terminal SCR, ensuring no braid or
wires touch the exposed copper areas within the transmitter sensor cable wiring area.
If an earth screw is not available at the transmitter enclosure, connect the drain wire to terminal
SCR.
Ensure the seal and mating surfaces are clean to maintain environmental rating.
Conduit connections must provide cable entry sealing.
Ensure cable glands are tightened after wiring. Do not overtighten the plastic cable glands to
avoid destroying their sealing properties. Initially, tighten finger-tight, then a further
using a suitable spanner or wrench.
Fit blanking plugs where required.

*Inner wire
**For cathodically protected systems (or if the transmitter enclosure does not have an earth screw) connect
the drain wire to terminal SCR.
