Frequently asked questions
Answers to the most common questions about our products and services
CSE is a particularly compact cylindrical head for confined installation spaces. Separate models cover nominal spans from 0.1 to 3 mm.
No. Some models include a cable; others use a triaxial socket. Type B or C also depends on model, so select the exact cable configuration.
The manufacturer describes point clamping with a plastic screw or circumferential clamping. Specifications reference the recommended circumferential position, with heat buildup considered.
No. The footnote references DT6530, 2 Hz static and 8.5 kHz dynamic bandwidth, and the specified standard cable. Retain those conditions.
No. The CSE head remains IP40 as specified. Controller protection does not change head or connection ratings.
