The choice of mounting is influenced by the resonance frequency and temperature. The following table shows how
strongly these influences impact on the different mounting methods.
Resonant frequency
Temperature
Stud
Instant adhesive
Beeswax
Double-sided adhesive tape
Magnetic clamp
Probe tip
Effects on the installation methods:

Installation procedure
Depending on the conditions of the location, sensors can be screwed directly onto the surface of the object to
be measured.
STEP 1:
As smooth and flat a surface as possible is needed to mount the sensors. The size needed depends on
the sensor and can be found in its data sheet.
For a vertical installation position:
For a horizontal installation position:
STEP 2:
An M8 blind hole is needed to attach the B&R sensor.
STEP 3:
To further improve the transfer performance, a thin layer of silicone grease can be applied between the
object surface and the sensor mounting surface. The sensor should then be pressed on briefly so that any excess
grease is pushed out. This is not an essential part of the application and is only useful when measuring particularly
high frequencies.
STEP 4:
The sensor should be tightened by approx. 8 Nm when using the M8x1 screw thread. If necessary, the
sensor can be protected against loosening using an adhesive.
