Cabling
Each probe requires an interconnecting cable. Cables differ
depending on the probe. The various cables are discussed below
under the appropriate probe type. All of these cable assemblies
can be ordered from GE Panametrics.
M Series and TF Series Probes
The M and the TF Series probes are connected to the analyzer
with a special GE Panametrics shielded cable. Probes can be
located up to 600 meters (2,000 feet) from the PM880 (consult
GE Panametrics for distances up to 1,200 meters). To measure
pressure with a TF probe, the maximum cable length is
approximately 152 meters (500 feet).
Moisture Image Series Probe
The Moisture Image Series Probe can be connected to the PM880
with an unshielded, twisted-pair cable. The probe may be located
up to 915 meters (3,000 feet) from the analyzer using 22 AWG
twisted pair cable. (Consult GE Panametrics for longer cable
lengths.)
