| Michèle Beyer | GeneralWe are often asked whether for instruments with M12 x 1 connector the corresponding mating connector (also called cable socket or angular connector) is included in the scope of delivery of our pressure sensors. Our clear answer is: no. Unlike the DIN connectors forms A …
Angular connector form A leaking/ loss of IP ingress protection
| Michèle Beyer | GeneralWhat are the rules that must be observed when assembling the angular connector EN 175301-803 A, to ensure that the IP rating is maintained, that is, connector and device remain really leak-tight? Unfortunately, a lot of things can go wrong when using the angular …
Aim and purpose of a vent hole in pressure sensors
| Michèle Beyer | PressureIn so-called “gauge sensors” pressure is always measured relative to the currently prevailing ambient pressure. However, the ambient pressure is by no means constant. It is location- and height-dependent and changes with the weather. This means that for a …
Unified colour codes and cable assignment for cable wires of pressure sensors
| Michèle Beyer | PressureWhy are there no unified colour codes for cable wires of the pressure sensors? This question is entirely justified, because unified wire colours would simplify everything. Not only the manufacturer's different cable versions but also the documentation and installation …
