Sensor – Recorder Interface
• To increase the odds of collecting data in harsh environments,
care must be taken to prevent sensor wire breakage
• Small sensor wires are connected to an interface board and
epoxy is used to prevent wire movement.
• Interface boards allow easy sensor replacement and protects
the recorder solder pads
Sensor – Recorder Interface
• The sensor cable goes through the strain relief hole on the
interface board, and the shield is soldered to the board.
Sensor – Recorder Interface
