5.2 Connection

The voltage supply and signal output are connected via the spring-

loaded terminals in the housing.
The connection to the display and adjustment module or to the inter-

face adapter is carried out via contact pins in the housing.
Information:

The terminal block is pluggable and can be removed from the elec-

tronics. To do this, lift the terminal block with a small screwdriver and

pull it out. When inserting the terminal block again, you should hear it

snap in.

Proceed as follows:
1. Unscrew the housing cover
2. If a display and adjustment module is installed, remove it by turn-

ing it slightly to the left.

3. Loosen compression nut of the cable entry
4. Remove approx. 10 cm (4 in) of the cable mantle, strip approx.

1 cm (0.4 in) of insulation from the ends of the individual wires

5. Insert the cable into the sensor through the cable entry

without end sleeves, press the terminal head with a small screwdriver;

the terminal opening is freed. When the screwdriver is released, the

terminal closes again.
