4.10.1 Cable Plug and Sensor Receptacle
Position the red dot on the interconnecting cable plug on connector to match the red dot on the Sensor
housing receptacle. Push the connector firmly and completely in to the Sensor receptacle.
The cable plug and Sensor receptacle combination are NEMA 4 (IP65) rated. However, provide
protection for the plug and receptacle if they are disconnected and the contacts and pins are exposed to
harsh environments.
Make sure the 24Vdc power to the Modline 5 Sensor is turned off whenever connecting and
disconnecting the cable.
Make sure the rear protection window is in place after making adjustments to maintain the Sensor’s
NEMA 4 (IP65) environmental rating.
