3.3 Mounting the sensor
Figure 1
Make sure the mechanical installation complies with the system requirements
concerning distance, planarity and parallelism between the sensor and the scale.
Avoid contact between the parts. Sensor is fixed by means of
two M5 25 mm
min. long cylinder head screws
inserted in the provided holes. Recommended
minimum bend radius
of the cable:
R
45 mm
.
The allowed gap between the sensor and the scale is 0.1 mm
0.3 mm
(0.004”
0.012”).
Do not use the cover strip, it would cause an excessive gap between the sensor
and the scale surface.
WARNING
Make sure the mechanical installation complies with the system requirements
concerning distance, planarity and parallelism between the sensor and the scale
as shown in Figure 2 all along the whole measuring length.
Mount the sensor as shown in the Figures. Please mind the direction of the
cable outlet. The system cannot operate if mounted otherwise than illustrated in
the Figures.
