CABLE CONNECTORS

Apogee sensors offer cable connectors 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 conditions.

Instructions

Pins and Wiring Colors: All Apogee

connectors have six pins, but not all pins are

used for every sensor. There may also be

unused wire colors inside the cable. To

simplify datalogger connection, we remove

the unused pigtail lead colors at the

datalogger end of the cable.

If a replacement cable is required, please

contact Apogee directly to ensure ordering

the proper pigtail configuration.

Alignment: When reconnecting a sensor,

arrows on the connector jacket and an

aligning notch ensure proper orientation.

Disconnection for extended periods: When

disconnecting the sensor for an extended

period of time from a station, protect the

remaining half of the connector still on the

station from water and dirt with electrical

tape or other method.

Tightening: Connectors are designed to be

firmly finger-tightened only. There is an O-

ring inside the connector that can be overly

compressed if a wrench is used. Pay

attention to thread alignment to avoid

cross-threading. When fully tightened, 1-2

threads may still be visible.

WARNING: Do not tighten the connector by

twisting the black cable or sensor head, only

twist the metal connector (blue arrows).

Cable connectors are attached directly to the head.

A reference notch inside the connector ensures

proper alignment before tightening.

When sending sensors in for calibration, only send the sensor head.

Finger-tighten firmly
