Until now:
In the case of shielding connections that have been customary with
HBM up to now, the shielding is linked to a connector pin.
This solution provides only limited EMC protection and should no
longer be used.
New Greenline shielding design:
HBM has developed the Greenline shielding design as an effective
measure for improved protection against electromagnetic
interference. The shielding is linked to the connector housing. The
cable shielding is specially adapted so that the whole measurement
chain is completely enclosed in a Faraday cage.
NOTE
Use standard HBM cable for the transducer connection.
When using other shielded, low-capacitance measuring
cable, connect the transducer cable shielding to the
connector housing in accordance with the HBM Greenline
information sheet (Ref. G 36.35.0). This ensures EMC
protection.
