4.4  Electrical connection
The transducer is connected via a connector.
The pin assignments for the respective version can be 
found in Table4-3. 
Note the information on shielding and cable 
routing.

4.5  Shielding and cable routing
Defined ground!
The transducer and the control cabinet must be 
at the same ground potential.
Shielding
To ensure electromagnetic compatibility (EMC), observe 
the following:
–  Connect transducer and controller using a shielded 
cable. Shielding: Braided copper shield with minimum 
85% coverage.
–  Connector version: Shield is internally connected to 
connector housing.
Magnetic fields
The position measuring system is a magnetostrictive 
system. It is important to maintain adequate distance 
between the transducer and strong, external magnetic 
fields.

Cable routing
Do not route the cable between the transducer, controller, 
and power supply near high voltage cables (inductive stray 
noise is possible).
The cable must be routed tension-free.
Cable length
The maximum cable length when using CAT5e cables is 
100m

 Prerequisite: Construction, shielding and routing preclude the effect of any 
external noise fields.
Noise elimination
To avoid equipotential bonding - a current flow - through 
the cable shield, please note the following:
–  Use insulating bushes
–  Put the control cabinet and the system in which the 
BTL7 is located to the same ground potential.
