INSTALLATION
INSTALLATION OVERVIEW
A channel is machined into the mold for the
sensor cable and sensor head. The sensor
head is placed under the ejector sleeve in
the mold ejector retainer plate. An ejector
sleeve core pin extends through the sensor
head and ejector sleeve into the mold
cavity. The sensor cable is attached to a
sensor adapter mounted outside of the
mold.

CASE
Because the load washer sensor relies
on the ejector sleeve to transfer pressure
from the cavity to the sensor surface, the
head of the ejector sleeve must contact
at least 80% of the loading surface. If
this is not attainable, a spacer may be
created to facilitate the correct loading.
Read and follow all instructions to install
the load washer sensor; refer to “Alternate
Installation Overview” on page 9 for
spacer installation instructions.
