3.2.8 Length of c onnecting cable
In order to ensure measuring accuracy, comply with the following instructions when
installing the remote version:
• Secure the cable run or route the cable in a conduit. Movement of the cable can falsify
the measuring signal, particularly if the fluid conductivity is low.
• Route the cable well clear of electrical machines and switching elements.
• Ensure potential equalization between sensor and transmitter, if necessary.
• The permissible cable length Lmax depends on the fluid conductivity (Fig. 14).
A minimum conductivity of 20 µS/cm is required for measuring demineralized water.
