  1)  To program the sensor for a particular material thickness, apply air to the gripper and grip on the material 

thickness which is to be used for the particular job. With an object such as a small Allen wrench, press the 

button until the Red LED(s) corresponding to the material range of the job lights as shown on the label.

 

  2) Verify calibration:

 

   

 

(a.) Close the gripper with no material between the pads. The LED(s) should be off.

 

    (b.)  Close the gripper on a single blank of material. The Red LED(s) corresponding to you material range should 

be on. 

INSTALLING AN IN-PAD SENSOR

 

1.  If an In-Pad Sensor is to be installed, it goes on top of the side plate assembly.  Wrap sensor cable through 

holder and align holes on side plate. Clean and apply Red Loctite 262 or equivalent to 2X M5 X 10mm SHCS 

and thread thru sensor into side plate. Tighten both SHCS to 36in-lb.

 

2.  Shim is only used for part numbers listed. If a shim is to be used on an angle pad, smaller tabs go on the 

narrow side of the pads.
