All sensors of 9301C...9371C feature a KIAG 10-32 neg.

connection and are compatible accordingly with all KIAG

10-32 pos. cable connectors. Only high-insulation coaxial

cables with low capacitance that produce only a very small

amount of static electricity may be used as connecting cables

for piezoelectric sensors. Kistler uses cables made of high-qua-

lity PFA or oil-proof FPM here.

On the sensor side, the IP protection class acc. to EN60529

is generally dependent on the used connector. For IP65, the

standard 10-32 KIAG cable connector with knurled nut is

used; for increased requirements in harsh environments, the

industrial-suited 10-32 KIAG pos. int. version is used which,

if necessary, can be tightly welded with the sensor case and

IP68 achieved.
