5.4.5 Shortening the cable
The cable can be shortened as required.
With submersible pressure sensors with voltage output, a shortening of the cable results in an offset error:
≤ 0.014 % / m of shortened cable.
EN
After the shortening, provide the wire ends with end splices and position the filter element on the vent tube.
5.4.6 Connecting the instrument to the electric system
▶
Connect the cables to the terminals.
▶
For voltage outputs, the load must be specified so that the output current does not exceed 1 mA.
