1. Screw M5.
2. Spring washer M5.
3. Serrated washer
wg DIN 6797 J ā M5.
4. The cable is terminated with a crimp terminal
with an eyelet M5.
5. Housing.
Figure 9. Location and method of connecting the protective earth to the transmitter housing.
Use a power cable suitable for the cable gland, with certified cables with a working voltage
of 300/500 V.
Figure 10. Proper preparation of the power cable.
In order to maintain safety, the power cable should be prepared in such a way that the earth
wire (yellow-green) is longer than the other wires by min. 20mm. The end of the earthing
wire should be extended with a tip with an eyelet to the M5 screw. Crimp the end on the
earthing conductor with a cable crimper.
