System arrangement
The sensor electrodes must be manufactured as described in chapter "2.2 Sensor Electrodes".
The following basic rules apply to the assembly of the system:
● Montage and adjustment should only be done by qualified person.
● The sensor electrodes should be installed in such a way that the measurement electrode stays
as close as possible to the objects to be detected. This ensures safe switching behavior.
● The evaluation unit should be installed near the sensor electrodes. The sensor line (coaxial cable
between the evaluation unit and sensor electrodes) should be limited to a maximum length of 100
cm.
● The device may only be operated with the plastic cover closed!
Before connecting the coaxial cable to the electrodes, check that:
– there is no short circuit between measurement electrode "A" and its opposite "B",
– there is no electrical connection between the electrodes and the mounting structure "C",
– there is no electrical connection to the machine ground.
