With ordering code "R" and in combination with
LKM-1309.
6 Maintenance
The magnetic measurement system does not need
any particular maintenance; please always consider
it is a delicate electronic equipment and therefore it
must be handled with care. From time to time we
recommend the following operations:
•
Check the gap between sensor and magnetic
scale along the measuring length. Wear of the
machine may increase the tolerances.
•
The surface of the magnetic scale should be
cleaned periodically using a soft cloth to remove
dust, chips, moisture etc.
7 Troubleshooting
The following list shows some typical errors that
occur during installation and operation of the
magnetic measurement system.
Fault:
The system does not work (no pulse output).
Possible cause:
•
The scale or sensor has been mounted
incorrectly (the active part of the scale does not
match the sensor active side).
•
A magnetic piece or scale is in between the
sensor and the scale. Only non-magnetic
materials are allowed between sensor and scale.
•
The sensor touches the scale because tolerance
gap between sensor and scale is not respected.
Check the sensor active side if damaged.
•
The sensor has been damaged by short circuit or
wrong connection.
Fault:
The measured values are inaccurate.
Possible cause:
•
The gap between sensor and scale is not
respected along the whole measurement length.
•
The connection cable runs near to high voltage
cable or shield is not connected correctly. See
section “4 - Electrical connections“.
•
The max. counting frequency of your receiving
device is too low.
•
A section of the magnetic scale has been
damaged mechanically or magnetically along
the measuring length
•
The measuring error is caused by torsion of the
machine structure. Check parallelism and
symmetry of machine movement.
