CABLE CONNECTORS
Apogee started offering in-line cable connectors on
some bare-lead sensors in March 2018 to simplify the
process of removing sensors from weather stations for
calibration (the entire cable does not have to be
removed from the station and shipped with the sensor).
The ruggedized M8 connectors are rated IP68, made of
corrosion-resistant marine-grade stainless-steel, and
designed for extended use in harsh environmental
Inline cable connectors are installed 30 cm from the

If a replacement cable is required, please contact
Apogee directly to ensure ordering the proper pigtail
configuration.
A reference notch inside the connector ensures

connector that can be overly compressed if a wrench is
used. Pay attention to thread alignment to avoid cross-
