6. Mounting

All versions of the transmitter which differ in appearance by the type of shaft can 
be mounted either 

directly 

or by means of 

3 mounting clips 

to the item being 

measured. The screws are not supplied, because the required length varies ac-
cording to the thickness of the mounting surface. Both methods of mounting and 
the relevant drilling and cut-out plans can be seen from Table.

When deciding where to install the transmitter (measuring 
location), take care that the 

“Ambient conditions”

 given in 

Section “5. Technical data” are 

not exceeded

.

Make the cut-out and drill the holes in the item onto which the transmitter is to be 
mounted according to the 

corresponding 

drilling and cut-out diagram given in 

Table 1 and then fi t the transmitter.

Pay attention when aligning and tightening the transmitter that the 

transmitter zero

 and the 

zero 

of the item being measured 

coincide

Alignment is achieved by rotating the transmitter.

To facilitate alignment in the case of 

“direct”

 mounting, it is recom-

mended to elongate the 3 mounting holes (diam. 3.2 mm).

When using 

mounting clips,

 the clips permit the transmitter to be 

rotated to the correct position.

The 

electrical zero

 of angular transmitters with measuring ranges

 

0 to  … 

°

  is marked on both the front and the back (see upper

illustration). It is only marked on the front, however, in the case of angular 
transmitters with ranges having a 

V characteristic

 and at instruments 

with both senses of rotation, see lower illustration.

7. Electrical connections

7.1 Electrical connections via sondering posts

There are 3 soldering posts (3) 
on the back of the transmitter for 
attaching the electrical connec-
tions. The soldering gosts suffi ce 
Protection Class IP 00 according 
to EN 60 529.

 

Note that, …

…   the data required to carry out the prescribed measurement must 

correspond to those marked on the nameplate of the KINAX 3W2 
(Range, Output, Supply voltage)!

…  the total loop resistance connected to the output (receiver plus 

leads) does not exceed the maximum permissible value R

ext.

! See 

“Measuring output” in Section “5. Technical data” for the maximum 
values of R

ext

!

…  twisted cores must be use for the measured variable input and 

output leads and routed as far away as possible from power cables!

In all other respects, observe all local regulations when selecting the 
type of electrical cable and installing them!

In the case of “Intrinsically safe”  explosion-proof versions with I.S. 
measuring output, the supplementary information given on the Ex 
approval and also local regulations applicable to electrical installations 
in explosion hazard areas must be taken into account!

Solder the connections as shown in the corresponding wiring diagram (Fig. 7).

Do not excessively heat the soldering posts (3)!
Do not mechanical load the soldering posts (3)!
Solder using a small pencil bit soldering iron!
