6.16.13 Grounding
imc CANSAS P8 should be grounded. Its housing is metal and conducting, which means that grounding is
advisable for safety reasons. But grounding also makes sense for measurement-technical reasons, but
isn't totally necessary when using plastic tubes. Lack of grounding can cause noisy measurement values,
however.
For imc CANSAS-L-P8, ground connection via a bolt on the backplane is recommended.
For imc CANSAS-IP65-P8, ground connection via the plug housing is recommended.
