otherwise than illustrated in the Figure. The arrow is intended to indicate the
standard counting direction (count up information).
Please note that the MTAX magnetic scale can be provided with a cover strip to
protect its magnetic surface (see the order code). Therefore the distance
between the sensor and the magnetic scale is different whether the cover strip
is applied.
The distance D (see Figure 2) between the centre of the screw fixing holes
and the MTAX magnetic scale has to be as follows:
without cover strip
with cover strip
31.7 mm
33.2 mm (1.248”
1.307”) 31.3 mm
32.8 mm (1.232”
1.291”)
For better operation the suggested distance D is 32.2 mm (1.267”).
WARNING
Make sure the mechanical installation complies with the system requirements
concerning distance, planarity and parallelism between the sensor and the scale
as shown in Figure 2 all along the whole measuring length.
