Adding additional wiring to the sensor cable, beyond that installed at manufacture, is not recommended. The extra length and joinings greatly increase the chance of electrical interference disrupting the signal. It is seldom actually necessary to introduce any separation because: 1 The analyser is not physically large compared to the motor and sensor and it has greater water ingress resistance. 2 Remote monitoring and control can be easily added using the RS485 modbus card with our software or a PLC, or using a remote 4-20mA display and the digital input card.
