Installation of NL16 linear encoders
The NL16 linear encoder is screwed to a carrier plate with 4 screws. When designing
the motor it was ensured that the SLC-P050M-030, for example, has the same height
as the NL16 so that both can be directly mounted on the same carrier plate.
For the motor to be commutated and energized in the correct phases, the measuring
system must be mounted according to the distances and orientation displayed in the
figure.
Observe the following tolerances when installing:
•
Nominal clearance: 4.5 mm
•
Maximum air gap: 8.5 mm
•
Misalignment at the sides at right angles to the direction of travel: ± 0.5 mm
centered
•
Distance of the NL16 linear encoder center to SLC-P center: 700 mm +
(1....n x 100 mm) ± 1 mm
