4.2 Mounting the magnetic tape
External magnetic fields
Magnetic tape's magnetization gets lost. Any direct contact of the mag-
netic tape with magnetic fields (e. g. adhesive magnets or other perma-
nent magnets) is to be avoided. Sensor movements during power loss are
not captured by the follower electronics.
`
Protect the magnetic tape from impact by external magnets.
Solving bonding of the magnetic tape
`
Remove foreign anti-adhesive substances including oil, grease or dust
by means of detergents that are preferably evaporating residue-free.
Suitable detergents include ketones (acetone) or alcohol offered for
instance as fast cleaning agents by the Loctite or 3M companies.
`
For optimum bonding, the surfaces to be bonded must be dry and
bonding shall be carried out with maximum contact pressure.
`
Observe a bonding temperature between 20 °C and 30 °C in dry rooms.
Deterioration of measuring accuracy
`
Mount the magnetic tape level with the mounting surface or distance
to be measured. Unevenness deteriorates measuring accuracy.
Length of the magnetic tape
`
For technical reasons, the magnetic tape must be ≥55 mm longer than
the distance to be measured.
When applying long pieces of magnetic tape do not immediately remove
the complete protective film, but rather peel back a short part from the
end sufficient to fix the tape. Now align the tape. Now you can pull out lat-
erally the remaining length of the protective film, simultaneously pressing
the tape firmly onto the mounting surface. A wallpaper seam roller could
be used to assist in applying pressure onto the magnetic tape when fixing
it in position.
