6.2 Mounting of the Magnetic Tape
6.2.1 Structure of magnetic tape
In the standard case the magnetic tape is delivered as described here. The tape must be
bonded on the mounting surface.
Figure 2: Structure of magnetic Tape
The Magnetic tape consists of 3 components:
A The magnetized, highly flexible plastic tape, connected on the lower side with…
B …Magnetic conductable and flexible stainless steel tape. It protects the plastic tape
from mechanical damages and is a magnetic short circuit at the same time. This increa-
ses significantly the functional security under ex- treme magnetic influences. Both parts
A and B are already factory-bonded.
C …To keep the flexibility for transport and installation, the third part a stainless, magnetic
permeable steel tape is delivered separately. It serves for mechanical protection of the
plastic tape, is already equipped with a sticky tape and must be bonded on the magnetic
plastic tape after installation.
