into the panel mount connector on the base of the sensor, and the locking collet rotated to the
properly locked condition. The cable and plug are an element of the sensor ingress protection
system. Withouttheconnectedcabletheingressprotectionratingmaybecompromised. Bending
the cable at a sharp angle directly after egress from the plug over mold should also be avoided.
