2.1 Intended use
This product may be used only for the applications defined
under item 1 and only in conjunction with the third-party de-
vices and components recommended or approved by MTS
Sensors. As a prerequisite of proper and safe operation, the
product requires correct transport, storage, mounting and
commissioning and must be operated with utmost care.
1. The sensor systems of all Temposonics
®
series are
intended exclu sively for measurement tasks encountered
in industrial, commercial and laboratory applications. The
sensors are considered as system accessories and must
be connected to suitable evaluation electron ics, e.g. a
PLC, IPC, indicator or other electronic control unit.
2.2 Foreseeable misuse
Forseeable misuse
Consequence
Lead compensating currents
through the enclosure
The sensor will be damaged
Wrong sensor connection
The sensor does not work
properly or can be destroyed
Operate the sensor out of the
operating temperature range
No signal output
The sensor can be damaged
Power supply is out of the
defined range
Signal output is wrong /
no signal output /
the sensor can be damaged
Position measurement is
influenced by an external
magnetic field
Signal output is wrong
Cables are damaged
Short circuit – The sensor
can be destroyed / sensor
does not respond
Spacers are missing / are
installed in the wrong order
Error in position
measurement
Wrong connection
of ground / shield
Signal output is disturbed
The electronics can be
damaged
Use of a magnet that is not
certified by MTS Sensors
Error in position
measurement
Output 2 is connected to
ground with low-impedance,
output 1 is connected with
high-impedance
The sensor is in program-
ming mode – The sensor
delivers faulty position values
Do not reprocess the sensor.
The sensor might be damaged.
Do not step on the sensor.
The sensor might be damaged.
