Installation
When choosing a mounting method, consider closely the advantages and disadvantages of each technique.
Typical mounting types are stud, direct adhesive, adhesive mounting base and magnetic mounting base.
Direct Adhesive Mount Procedure
For restrictions of space or for convenience, most sensors (with the exception of integral stud models) can be
adhesive-mounted directly to the machine surface.
Step 1: Prepare a smooth, flat mounting surface. A minimum surface finish of 63 µin [0.0016 mm]
generally works best.
Step 2: Place a small portion of adhesive on the underside of the sensor. Firmly press down on the top of
the assembly to displace any adhesive. Be aware that excessive amounts of adhesive can make sensor
removal difficult.
