is measuring the strain of the material. To make sure the sensor can
measure correctly, the surface has to be clean, straight and free from grease or other release
agents (see chapter “C. Assembly instructions 1. Grinding and cleaning of surfaces”).
To protect the sensor, it hast to be covered by a protection cover and by sealing. The cable has
always to be protected by a corrugated tube. Avoid bending the cable around sharp edges
and below the specified minimum bending radius of 35 mm. The sensor will be adhesive
bonded and the cable fixed on the chassis (see chapter “C. Assembly instructions 2. Assembly
of VOSS OBW 501
SG sensor
”). It is recommended to apply a first fixation of supply cable at a
distance of 150 mm behind the protection cover.
The sensor has a 3-wire harness. For connection and setup instructions see chapter
“C. Assembly instructions 3. Setup of VOSS OBW 501
SG sensor
”.
Observe the manufacturer's safety instructions and handling of adhesive and sealing material.
