9.11 High Temp Cable 
The  12-wire  cable  (XXX2CCB…)  is  used  for  wiring  the  sensor  with  the  24 VDC  power  supply,  all 
outputs, and the RS485 interface. The cable is Teflon coated and withstands ambient temperatures form 
-80 to 200°C (-112°F to 392°F). Teflon coated temperature cables have good to excellent resistance to 
oxidation,  heat,  weather,  sun,  ozone,  flame,  water,  acid,  alkalis,  and  alcohol,  but  poor  resistance  to 
gasoline, kerosene, and degreaser solvents. 
  Power supply  2 wires (black/red) 
Conductor:  0.3 mm² (AWG 22), 7x30 tinned copper 
Isolation:  FEP 0.15 mm wall (0.006 in) 
Shield:  none 
  RS485 interface  2 twisted pairs (black/white and purple/gray) 
Conductor:  0,22 mm² (AWG 24), 7x32 tinned copper 
Isolation:  FEP 0.15 mm wall (0.006 in) 
Shield:  Aluminized Mylar with drain wire 
  Outputs and Ground  6 wires (green/brown/blue/orange/yellow/clear) 
Conductor:  0,22 mm² (AWG 24), 7x32 tinned copper 
Isolation:  FEP 0.15 mm wall (0.006 in) 
Shield:  none 
  Cable diameter:  7 mm (0.275 in) nominal 
  Temperature:  UL-rated at -80 to 200°C (-112°F to 392°F) 
Further information for wiring the cable can be found in section 6.2 Electrical Installation, page 28. 
High  temp  12-wire  cable  can  be  purchased  from  the  manufacturer  in  the  following  lengths: 
4 m, 8 m, 15 m, 30 m, 60 m (13 ft., 26 ft., 49 ft., 98 ft., 197 ft.) 
If you cut the cable to shorten it, notice that both sets of twisted-pair wires have drain wires inside their 
insulation. These drain wires (and the white wire that is not part of the twisted pair) must be connected 
to the terminal labeled CLEAR. 
If you  purchase your  own  RS485 cable,  use  wire  with the  same specifications as  those  listed above. 
Maximum RS485 cable length is 1.200 m (4000 ft).
