NOTICE
Heating up of the P-88x.x5 during operation!
The heat produced during operation of the P-88x.x5 can affect your application.
Install the P-88x.x5 so that your application is not affected by the dissipating heat.
INFORMATION
Ground loops can occur when the piezo actuator is installed in a housing that is grounded via
the shield of the connecting cable of the piezo actuator as well as a separate protective earth
conductor.
If a ground loop occurs, contact our customer service department (p. 37).
Avoiding mounting errors
Piezo actuators may only be loaded axially. Moreover, piezo actuators should be preloaded
mechanically in order to avoid tensile stress. The following figures are to help you avoid
mounting errors.
