Protection type IP68

WARNING – Impairment of the IP68 protection type!
The IP68 protection type of the sensor is impaired by damage to the signal cable.
The sheath of the signal cable must not be damaged. Otherwise, the IP68 protection type for the sensor
cannot be ensured.
For sensors with protection type IP68, the maximum flooding height is 5 m (16.4 ft). The cable (part no.
00648906 or 00648907) included in the scope of delivery meets all submersion capability requirements.
The sensor is type-tested according to EN 60529.
Test conditions: 14 days at a flooding height of 5 m (16.4 ft)
(1) Maximum flooding height 5 m (16.4 ft)
1. The signal cable included in the scope of delivery must be used to connect the sensor and the trans-
mitter.
2. Connect the signal cable in the sensor terminal box.
3. Route the signal cable from the terminal box up to above the maximum flooding height of 5 m
(16.4 ft).
4. Tighten the cable fitting.
Optimum tightening torque: depends on the load of the used cable. (guide value: 4.5 Nm)
5. Carefully seal the terminal box. Make sure the housing seal is positioned correctly.
IMPORTANT (NOTE)!
The sensor can also be ordered with the signal cable already connected to the sensor and the terminal
box already potted.
