7.6 Cables and connectors

Cable bend radius
The smallest bend radius for RBR supplied cables is 15cm.
Lubricating the connectors
Lubrication improves watertight sealing, prevents corrosion, and reduces the force required to de-mate the connector.
Use the silicone compound provided with your instrument.
• Apply the silicone compound to all female connectors before every mating
• Ensure each connector hole is filled with approximately 30% lubricant
Reducing mechanical stress
• Do not pull on the cable
• Hold onto the connector to pull out the cable
• Disconnect by pulling straight out, not at an angle
• Avoid sharp bends at the point where the cable enters the connector
• Avoid angular loads on the connector
