Mounting adapter PTB 9 • For mounting on the existing mounting bracket (GM-16™)
55642-EN-170815
2. The fixing material for the mounting adapter is not part of the
scope of delivery.
We recommend screws of size M12 or ½" and Nordlock washers.
Insert the fixing screws (13) with the Nordlock lock washers (10)
from above through the holes of the mounting adapter (6) and the
mounting bracket (9).
3. Place two Nordlock lock washers (10) over the screws from below
and screw the hexagon nuts (11) onto the screws (13).
Tighten the screws (13) with a torque of 60 Nm (44 lbf ft).
4. Insert the screws (1), each with one Nordlock lock washer (2)
according to the above illustration, through the cover plate (3), the
two clamp collars (4) and the base plate (5).
5. Place the premounted anti-vibration clamp onto the mounting
adapter (6) and screw the two screws (1) from the front through
the holes of the mounting adapter (6).
Place one Nordlock lock washer (2) over each of the screws (1)
and screw the hexagon nuts (12) onto the screws (1). Do not
tighten the hexagon nuts, the connection should be still loose.
6. Place the sensor onto the mounting adapter (6) according to the
above illustration.
Insert the lower part of the sensor into the loosely premounted
anti-vibration clamp.
7. Place one Nordlock lock washer (7) over each of the two screws
(8) and insert the screws from below through the holes of the
mounting adapter (6).
8. Place one Nordlock lock washer (7) over each screw (8) and
screw the hexagon nuts (14) onto the screws (8).
Tighten the screws (8) with a torque of 15 Nm (11 lbf ft) to fix the
sensor.
9. Finally, tighten the screw connections (1) of the anti-vibration
clamp with a torque of 10 Nm (7.5 lbf ft).
The radiation-based sensors MINITRAC 31 or POINTRAC 31 in the
short version (46 mm/1.8 in) can be used instead of the sensor GM-
16.
The mounting adapter is constructed in such a way that the sensors
are already in the correct position after mounting.
