se cable with round cross-section. A cable outer diameter of

5 … 9

mm (0.2 … 0.35 in) ensures the seal effect of the cable

gland. If you are using cable with other diameter or cross-
section, you have to exchange the seal or use a suitable cable
gland.

I

f screened cable is necessary, connect the cable screen on

both ends to ground potential. In the plastic housing, in
VEGABOX

02

or in VEGADIS 12, the screen must be

connected directly to the internal ground terminal. The ground
terminal outside on the housing must be connected to the
potential equalisation.

I

f potential equalisation currents are expected, the connection

on the processing side must be made via a ceramic capacitor
(

e. g. 1 nF, 1500 V). The low frequency potential equalisation

currents are thus suppressed, but the protective effect against

high frequency interference signals remains.
