Adjusting the magnet gap
To adjust the magnet gap between the oscillating magnets, the casing must be removed
and the securing screws
of the magnetic anchor) undone. Then the
appropriate spacer gauges
must be slid into the openings provided
on the counterweight. It must be ensured that a spacer gauge
has been inserted to each
oscillating magnet and that it juts out of it horizontally. Then apply 24 VDC to the drive
unit which will cause the magnets and the anchors to pick up. The required magnet gap
will be set by the inserted spacer gauges. Now the securing screws must be tightened
using the appropriate torque
(Table 4: Magnet gap and tightening torque)
. When all the magnetic
anchors have been secured, switch off the 24 VDC voltage and remove the spacer
gauges from the openings in the drive unit. As you do this, ensure that the spacer gaug-
es can be removed easily but do not have too much play since otherwise the magnet gap
is too large. In this case the magnet gap adjustment process must be repeated.
