Installation of RP
The position sensor can be installed in any position. Normally,
the sensor is firmly installed and the position magnet is fastened
to the mobile machine part. Thus it can travel along the sensor profile.
The sensor is fitted on a flat machine surface using the mounting
clamps (Fig. 4). A length-dependent number of these clamps are
delivered with the sensor and must be distributed over the profile
at regular distances. For fastening use M5×20 screws to DIN 6912 that
should be tightened with a fastening torque of 5 Nm.

NOTICE
Take care to mount the sensor in an axially parallel position to
avoid damage to magnet and sensor.

Alternative:
If only limited space is available, the profile sensor can be mounted
also via the T-rail in the profile bottom using an T-slot nut M5
(part no. 401 602) or a sliding block (Fig. 5).
