MAXIMUM 8032-5 (TAN CABLE) CABLE LENGTHS

The 8032 Multiplexer is a low power device, that when combined with a Micro-800 or Micro-

1000 Datalogger can be physically located at a considerable distance from that Datalogger.

Still, there are limits to the maximum distance – mostly due to the voltage dropped by the 8032-5

MUX cable over its length. Factors such as ambient temperature, number of 8032 Multiplexers

(Daisy-Chain configuration) and system battery voltage need to be considered in determining the

maximum 8032-5 cable length.

For a single 8032 Multiplexer under normal operating conditions (System Battery = 12V,

ambient temperature = 20°C), the maximum recommended cable length from the Datalogger to

the 8032 Multiplexer is 4588 feet (≈1400m). Figure E.1 displays the maximum recommended

cable length for various Datalogger, Battery Voltage and ambient Temperature combinations.
