Connection - HBM PaceLine CLP Mounting Instructions

Connection

7 Connection
Sensors of the CLP series are delivered with a permanently integrated connec­
tion cable that is 1 m or 0.5 m in length. You can use a coupling (for example
coupling 1-CCO available from HBM) to connect an extension cable. It is possi­
ble to connect as many as four CLP series sensors in parallel; the CSB sum­
ming box from HBM is used for this purpose.
Notice
If the CLP series sensors are mechanically arranged in parallel, the structural
parts touching the sensors must be sufficiently stiff and in plane-parallel align­
ment with one another. This always applies when several sensors with joint
load applications are mounted. This is important, to prevent the maximum per­
mitted bending moment being exceeded while pre-stressing the sensors.
Handle the transducer connection cable carefully, as it cannot be repaired. If it
is damaged, the complete sensor must be replaced.
