Even with galvanic isolation, terminate cable shields at the sensor end only. Do not connect the shield to the PTS162’s ground terminal—this preserves the isolation barrier.

As Industry 4.0 pushes intelligence closer to the sensor, the PTS162 Full represents the current sweet spot of cost, capability, and reliability. Ensure your next automation project specifies the —because in process control, "full" is the only safe bet. Have a specific question about the PTS162 Full not covered here?
