Installation of the Magnetic Tape
NOTE External Magnetic Fields
The magnetic tape must not be influenced by external magnetic fields!
The magnetic tape must not come into direct contact with other magnetic fields (e.g. perma-
nent magnets, magnetic clamps, electromagnets, magnetic stands)! This may cause irrepara-
ble damage, which will compromise the measuring accuracy or even the functioning.
7.2.1
Structure of magnetic tape
In the standard case, the magnetic tape is delivered as described
It is installed by gluing it to the respective mounting surface.
The magnetic tape consists of 2 pre-assembled components (Figure 5: Components of the magnetic tape):
A magnetized, flexible plastic tape (Pos. 3), which is connected with a magnetically conductive steel
tape as inference band (Pos. 4) and is supplied with an adhesive tape (Pos. 5).
A magnetized permeable cover tape (Pos. 1), which serves for the mechanical protection of the plastic
tape (not required for the measurement) and is supplied with an adhesive tape (Pos. 2).
Therefore a divergent tape structure and scope of delivery is also possible.
The cover tape is also available separately
