Q-632 Miniature Rotation Stage
NOTICE
Damage from unsuitable cables!
Unsuitable cables can damage the electronics.
Use cables provided by PI only for connecting the Q-632 to the electronics.
INFORMATION
The positive direction of motion is a counterclockwise rotation.
INFORMATION
The Q-632 can be mounted on an optical stage with the Q-101.AP1 adapter plate. The adapter
plate is available (p. 9)as an accessory.

Mounting the Q-632 onto an Underlying Surface and Connecting
it to a Protective Earth Conductor
NOTICE
Protruding screw heads!
Protruding screw heads can damage the Q-632.
Ensure that the screw heads do not protrude from countersunk holes so that they do not
interfere with the motion.
NOTICE
Warping of the Q-632 when mounted on uneven surfaces!
The Q-632 could warp if mounted on an uneven surface. Warping reduces the accuracy.
Mount the Q-632 onto an even surface. The recommended flatness of the surface
is ≤2 µm.
For applications with large temperature changes:
Mount the Q-632 only onto surfaces that have the same or similar thermal expansion
properties as the Q-632.
