Installation and Assembly
4.1
Precautionary Measures
No sharp-edged or heavy objects may get into contact with the sensor cable sheath.
Protect the cable In pressurized rooms against pressure loads.
Avoid kinks in any case. Check the connections for tight fit.
i
A damaged cable cannot be repaired.
4.2
Sensor
The sensors may be mounted free-standing or flush.
When assembling, make sure that the polished sensor surface is not scratched.
4.2.1 Radial Point Clamping with Grub Screw, Cylindric Sensors
This simple type of fixture is only recommended for a force and vibration-free installation
position. The grub screw must be made of plastic so that it cannot damage or deform
the sensor housing.

Do not use metal grub screws
> Danger of damaging the sensor
4.2.2 Circumferential Clamping, Cylindric Sensors
This sensor mounting option offers maximum reliability because the sensor is clamped
around its cylindrical housing. It is absolutely necessary in difficult installation environ-
ments, for example on machines, production plants et cetera.

4.2.3 Flat Sensors
Flat sensors are mounted by means of a tap hole for M2 (in case of sensors 0.2 and
0.5 mm) or by a through hole for M2 screws. The sensors can be bolted on top or below.
