KINAX HW730, Programmable hollow-shaft transmitter for angular position
1. Safety instructions
1.1 Symbols
The symbols in these instructions point out risks and have
the following meaning:
Warning in case of risks.
Non-observance can result in malfunc-
tioning.
Non-observance can result in malfunctio-
ning and personal injury.
Information on proper product handling.
1.2 Intended use
•
The KINAX HW730 transmitter is a precision instrument.
It serves the acquisition of angular position, processing
and the provision of measured values as electric output
signals for the downstream device. Use the transmitter
for this purpose only.
•
The device is intended for installation in industrial plants
and meets the requirements of EN 61010-1.
•
Manufacturer is not liable for any damage caused by
inappropriate handling, modifi cation or any application
not according to the intended purpose.
1.3 Commissioning
•
Installation, assembly, setup and commis-
sioning of the device has to be carried out
exclusively by skilled workers.
•
Observe manufacturer’s operating instruc-
tions.
•
Check all electric connections prior to
commissioning the plant.
•
If assembly, electric connection or other
work on the device and the plant are not
carried out properly, this may result in mal-
functioning or breakdown of the device.
•
Safety measures should be taken to avoid
any danger to persons, any damage of the
plant and any damage of the equipment
due to breakdown or malfunctioning of
the device.
•
Do not operate the device outside of
the limit values stated in the operating
instructions.
1.4 Repair work and modifi cations
Repair work and modifi cations shall exclu-
sively be carried out by the manufacturer.
In case of any tampering with the device,
the guaranty claim shall lapse. We reserve
the right of changing the product to im-
prove it.
1.5 Disposal
The disposal of devices and components
may only be realised in accordance with
good professional practice observing the
country-specifi c regulations.
1.6 Transport and storage
Transport and store the devices exclusively
in their original packaging. Do not drop
devices or expose them to substantial
shocks.

Application
The KINAX HW730 converts the angular position of a shaft
into a load independent direct current signal, proportional to
the angular position. The unit is contact free. It technically
extends the delivery program of angular transmitters with a
programmable version and thus creates a number of new
technical application possibilities. The robust housing makes
this unit ideal for applications in rough environments.
