6.5.2 Step by Step Instructions
1. Wrap the shaft with insulating tape.
Figure 38: insulation of the shaft
The insulated surface has to cover a larger area than the Mu-metal to be applied
subsequently in order to prevent short-circuit between the Mu-metal and the shaft.
2. Cut the first layer of the mu-metal with protective foil to the required length, it should be
long enough to wrap around the shaft’s circumference. Pull off the protective film and glue
the mu-metal onto the shaft (see figure 39). Its extremities must
not
touch; in order to
prevent short-circuits. A gap of approx. 1mm is required.

3. Insulate the mu-metal as described in step 1.
4. Apply the 2
nd
mu-metal layer as described in step 2. Make sure to leave a gap of approx.
1 mm between the edges.
Please note:
The gap of the 2
nd
mu metal layer has to be offset by at least 90° from the
1
st
gap.
