Title: VDO non powered Pyrometer connector
Post by: GTD. on July 19, 2007, 02:04:31 am

Just got a VDO non powered pyrometer with a 2 pole push in connector (I was expecting two screw terminals)

Anyone know where can I get a cable for this?

Don't those terminals just take regular spade connectors?

Yeah, I've never seen that style before... might mean it uses a preamp ??  If is does plug directly in in will be a special part since it will need to be metalically compatible with the thermocouple.


Are there any identifying part or model numbers on the gauge ??  If so, a bit of time on the Siemens site might score you the installation manual and/or an accessories list.
