4.1.1 General Information for the Installation
ATTENTION
Do not disassemble or open the device
The function of the measuring system might be lost partly or
entirely.
• Do not open or disassemble the measuring system. Other-
wise, the warranty will be void.
ATTENTION
Do not modify the encoder and do not change the shaft
Encoder accuracy will be impaired and the function of the
bearings and seal may be lost partly or entirely.
• Do not machine the shaft or the housing subsequently (e.g.
grinding, sawing, drilling, etc.).
ATTENTION
Do not subject the encoder to shocks or overload it
This would impair encoder accuracy and bearings and seal
reliability.
• Do not use a hammer to align the encoder.
• Absolutely avoid impact stress.
• Do not subject the encoder shaft to axial or radial loads ex-
ceeding the values specified in the data sheet.
ATTENTION
Do not connect the stator and the rotor rigidly to the ap-
plication
The encoder would be mechanically constrained and thus
damaged.
• For solid shaft encoders always use a suitable tolerance-
compensating coupling element between the drive shaft and
the encoder shaft.
• For tapered or hollow shaft encoders, always use a suitable
coupling element between the drive flange and the encoder
flange.
NOTICE
Procedure in the event of soiling
Clean and degrease the encoder shaft and the drive shaft be-
fore installation.
NOTICE
Tools
For assembly, use only checked and calibrated tools subjec-
ted to a quality system.
