2For your safety
2.1Authorised personnel
All operations described in this operating instructions manual
must be carried out only by trained specialist personnel
authorised by the operator.For safety and warranty reasons,
any internal work on the instruments must be carried out only
by personnel authorised by the manufacturer.
2.2Appropriate use
The cable shortening set is used to shorten VEGAWAVE
sensors in cable version (VEGAWAVE 62).
2.3Warning about misuse
Inappropriate or incorrect use of the instrument can give rise to
application-specific hazards,e.g.vessel overfill or damage to
system components through incorrect mounting or adjustment.
2.4Environmental instructions
Protection of the environment is one of our most important
duties.That is why we have introduced an environment
management system with the goal of continuously improving
company environmental protection.The environment man-
agement system is certified according to DIN EN ISO 14001.
Please help us fulfil this obligation by observing the environ-
mental instructions in this manual:
lChapter "Storage and transport"
lChapter "Disposal"

3.1Configuration
The scope of delivery encompasses:
lCable shortening set
lDocumentation
-this operating instructions manual
3.2Principle of operation
The cable shortening set is a set of parts required to shorten a
VEGAWAVE 62.
The cable shortening set can be also used e.g.if the sensors
must be led through a narrow tube.
The cable shortening set must not be used if the concerned
sensor is used for solid detection in water.
The cable of the sensor consists of a suspension cable,the
electrical wires and an outer insulation.
3.3Storage and transport
Your instrument was protected by packaging during transport.
Its capacity to handle normal loads during transport is assured
by a test according to DIN EN 24180.
The packaging of standard instruments consists of environ-
ment-friendly,recyclable cardboard.For special versions,PE
foam or PE foil is also used.Dispose of the packaging material
via specialised recycling companies.

wrench 2mm.The pins should be screwed in with the
same depth into the cable clamp (approx.3Nm/2.2lbf ft).
20 Cut the fawn plastic cords (11)as short as possible with a
wire cutter.
21 Remove the insulation of the screened green (GN)and
yellow (YE)wire on a length of 60 mm (2.4in). Slightly push
back the screen braiding and open it with a sharp object in
the rear section.
Make sure that the wires are not damaged.
