Instructions for Mechanical and Electrical Installation
Please observe the following instructions to ensure safe operation of the absolute rotary
encoder:
Note!
More installation-relevant information on technical data, mechanical data, and available
connection lines for the relevant absolute rotary encoder types "ES*58-...EC...", "and "EV*58-
...EC..." as well as "ENA58IL-...B21..." (EtherCAT) can be found in the corresponding
datasheet.
Warning!
Work must only be performed by trained and qualified personnel!
Commissioning and operation of this electrical equipment must only be performed by trained
and qualified personnel. This means individuals who are qualified to commission (in
accordance with safety technology), connect to ground, and label devices, systems, and
circuits.
Warning!
Only perform work when the system is in a de-energized state!
De-energize your device before performing work on the electrical connections. Short circuits,
voltage peaks, and similar events can lead to faults and undefined statuses. This presents a
significant risk of personal injury and property damage.
Warning!
Check electrical connections before switching on the system!
Check all electrical connections before switching on the system. Incorrect connections present
a significant risk of personal injury and property damage. Incorrect connections can lead to
malfunctions.
Caution!
Do not remove the rotary encoder housing!
Do not remove the rotary encoder housing under any circumstances, as damage and
contamination can occur as a result of taking improper action. It is, however, permitted to
remove connector covers.
Caution!
Do not perform any electrical modifications!
It is not permitted to perform electrical modifications on the rotary encoders. If you open or
modify the device yourself, not only are you endangering yourself and others, but you will also
void any warranty and absolve the manufacturer of any liability.
Caution!
Ensure that the data cable and power supply cable are physically separate!
Route the cordset of the rotary encoder so that it is a suitable distance away from power supply
cables to avoid faults. Shielded cables must be used to ensure reliable data transfer. A perfect
ground connection must also be ensured.
