Two Hall effects down one 6 core screened cable OK?

Postby Chris Wilson on Fri Sep 23, 2011 10:16 pm

I have some Raychem good quality six core screened cable, can I use it to wire two Hall effect (GT101) rear wheel speed sensors down the single cable, or should I use separate 3 core cable for each sensor? If it makes a difference the six cores are twisted in a spiral along the cable inside the braid.

The GT101's have about 5 inches of unscreened cable off them, does that bit matter, or should I cut it back far enough to just get the Deutsch DTM 3 way connectors I want to use on? Thanks.

I don't think that the signals should interfere with each other in the six core cable and it will be fine as it is from the deutsch connector to the sensor. Cheers, Omar
