Electrical Connection
The electrical connection of the valve takes place 
by one common cable, which is coupled to the 
integrated electronic driver by a central connector 
assembly.
 
The connection requires a 6 + PE female connector 
EN 175201-804.
  The female connector has to be ordered 
separately under article nr. 5004072.   
 
  A female connector with metal housing is 
required! Plastic made models may create 
function problems due to insufficient EMC-
characteristics.  
    
The connecting cable has to comply to the following 
specification:
Cable type  control cable, flexible, 
    7 conductors, overall braid   
  shield  
Cross section  min. AWG16/1.0 mm
2
Outer dimension  8...12 mm
Cable length  max. 50 m
  For cable lengths > 50 m consult factory. 
 
The connection cable is coupled to the female 
connector by solder joints.
Skinning lengths for the connecting cable:
The shielding has to be assembled according the 
outline below:
The backshell nut of the cable gland has to be 
tighten with a suitable tool. The target value for the 
tightening torque is 4 Nm. Tighten the cap nut with 
a torque of approx. 5 Nm after attaching the female 
connector on the socket outlet. 
  Incomplete tightening of backshell nut resp. 
cap nut may result in automatic release of 
the connection as well as degradation of the 
water tightness.
  Follow the “instructions for use“ for installation 
of female connectors made by other kind of 
brands!  
  The cable connection to the female connector 
has to take place by qualified personnel! A 
short between individual conductors resp. to 
the connector housing , bad soldering as well 
as improper shield connection may result in 
malfunction and breakdown of the valve.   
   
  The mounting surface of the valve has to be 
tied to the earth grounded machine frame. The 
earth ground wire from the valve connecting 
cable as well as the cable shield have to be 
tied to the protective earth terminal within the 
control unit. It is necessary to use a low ohmic 
potential connection between control unit and 
machine frame to prevent earth loops (cross 
section AWG 6).
  Do not disconnect cable socket under tensi-
on!
