1. Mount the o-ring and and back-up ring on the sensor header according to drawing below.
Do not install the senor rod without o-ring and back-up ring. The sensor is not designed for hydraulic
pressure on the backside of the sensor header.
2. Feed the sensor wires or cable thru the drill hole in the cylinder body to the location where the con-
nector or cable gland shall be mounted. This step may vary depending on the design of the cylinder.
Make sure that the wires are free from mechanical stress. Do not pull in the wires/cable to pull the
sensor in place.
3. Mount the sensor firmly in place.
4. Fix the sensor in position:
a. By a M4 flat pointed set-screw. Recommended tightening torgue < 2 Nm. Seal the set screw with
suitable sealing compound. The force from the hydraulic pressure shall apply on the back side of
the sensor head against the cylinder body, the set-screw shall not hold this force.
b. Or use the retaining ring: Place the wave spring washer on the header and then install the retaining
ring.
5. Install the electric connection:
a. RCL41: It is recommended to install RCL41 sensors with a cable gland through the cylinder.
b. RCL40: Connect the wires to a suitible connector. Recommended options is 6140 or 6160 and follow
the instructions in this manual. When RCL40 is used with 6160 connector, the sensor and connector
must be ordered together as the crimp contacts for the connector are mounted from factory.
