F are delivered with a
length of 5 meters. If requested the unit can
be supplied with 15 meter cables instead of
the standard 5 meter cable length. If requi-
red, the cables may be extended there is no
need to increase the cross-sectional area of
the 3 wires - they can remain at the original
0.75 square millimeter. In order to preven in-
terferences, the probe and the motor should
be extended with separator cables. Maxi-
mum length of either the motor or the opti-
cal probe cable should be 30 meters.

VDE 0100, VDE 01107 and IEC guideli-
