Fig 18: Evaluation of the magnetic tape to the sensor - inclined mounting of the sensor
6.
IMPORTANT: Assembly check!
To prevent damage, the sensor must not rub against the surface of the magnetic tape. However, occa-
sional contact due to movement of the sensor is not critical. Therefore, make an inspection run over the
entire lifting height and check the distances between the belt and the sensor. Also check the underside
of the sensor at some points. If this is slightly inclined – the sensor can be perfectly aligned at the top,
but still come into contact with the magnetic tape at the bottom – the sensor may rub at the surface of
the magnetic tape.
General remarks:
The sensor scanning surface must be kept parallel to the tape over the entire measuring distance
A twist as shown in the left or right illustration leads to incorrect measurement results, which in
turn entails the request for the safe state.
