Shortening the electrode

VEGACAL 67 • Profibus PA
In Ex applications, only instruments and electronics modules with ap-
propriate Ex approval may be used.
If there is no electronics module available on site, one can be ordered
from the VEGA agency serving you.
The new electronics module must be loaded with the order data of the
sensor. These are the options:
•
At the factory by VEGA
•
Or on site by the user
In both cases, the sensor serial number is needed. The serial num-
bers are stated on the type label of the instrument or on the delivery
note.
Information:
When loading on site, the order data must first be downloaded from
the Internet (see operating instructions "Electronics module").
The electronics modules are adapted to the respective sensor and
differ in their signal output or in their power supply. You can find a suit-
able electronics module in the following overview.
The oscillators differ only in their signal output and are suitable for all
series 60 sensors.
The following types are available:
•
CL-E60H (4 ... 20 mA/HART)
•
CL-E60P (Profibus PA)
•
CL-E60F (Foundation Fieldbus)
9.4 Shortening the electrode
The probe (cable) can be shortened by any length.
1. Loosen the two pins on the gravity weight (hexagon) and remove
the pins.
2. Pull the cable out of the gravity weight.
3. To avoid splicing of the steel cable, tin the cable before shortening
with a soldering iron and tighten the wire.
4. Shorten the cable with a cut-off wheel or metal saw at the lower
end. Make sure the length is correct before shortening.
