Notes on Operation
• Do not connect or disconnect plugs if the power is on!
• Only operate the encoder with the supply voltage stated in this product data sheet�
• Comply with applicable PIN assignment if auxiliary electronic units are connected (e�g� controller
or display)!
• Integrate exposed encoders in instruments, devices or machines in such a way that they are
protected against contamination�
• Protect the scale tape against mechanical damage�
• Protect the scanning head against shock, impact and humidity�
2.5
Notes on Maintenance
• The encoder requires no maintenance whatsoever, but must be cleaned occasionally, depending
on the ambient conditions�
•
Modifications and repairs of the encoder may only be carried out by NUMERIK JENA GmbH or
appropriately authorized persons�
• NUMERIK JENA GmbH is not liable for damages caused by unauthorized handling of the encoder�
All warranty claims are forfeited by unauthorized handling�
• Exposed measuring systems are sensitive to contamination, especially the scale surface and the
scanning windows for the counting and reference tracks on the scanning head�
•
Particularly critical are rough and irregular contamination and deposits (e.g. oil, grease or water).
• The user has to protect the encoder from contamination by way of appropriate design measures�
•
When cleaning the encoder, ensure that no solvent flows under the scale tape!
• When cleaning the components, ensure that the scanning window and scale tape are not
scratched by any deposited particles!
• Please also pay attention to the notes in chapter 11 „Cleaning“.
