Can I shrink wrap the end of the pressure transducer cable?
Estimated Reading Time: < 1 MinuteMaretron’s guage type pressure transducers (0-1.5 PSI, 0-3 PSI, 0-5 PSI, 0-10 PSI, 0-50 PSI) require external venting relative to the atmospheric to operate. For our gauge sensors, the venting takes place through the end of the cable assembly. For a submersible pressure sensor venting will occur through a red colored hard plastic vent tube or the cable assembly shown in in Figure 1. Remember it is important that you do not cover the tube with tape or shrink wrap the end of the cable when using the Maretron pressure sensors mentioned in this article.
