Mounting instructions

Mounting instructions/Description

Extensive range of mounting accessories

for easy adaptation to many different shaft

diameters. Based on the functional principle of

RLC coupling, the sensor operates absolutely

wear-free and is immune to magnetized metal

splinters and other interference fields. Wrong

installation is hardly possible.

The adjacent figure shows the two separate

units, sensor and positioning element.

Mounting option A:

First, interconnect positioning element and

rotatable shaft. Then place the encoder above

the rotating part in such a way that you get a

tight and protected unit.

Mounting option B:

Push the encoder on the back site of the shaft

and fasten it to the machine. Then clamp

the positioning element to the shaft with the

bracket.

Mounting option C:

If the positioning element is to be screwed on a

rotating machine part, use the RA0-QR24 plug

which is included in the delivery. Then tie up

the bracket. Screw on the encoder via the three

bores.

 

The separately arranged sensor and positioning

element inhibit that compensating currents or

damaging mechanical loads are transmitted via

the shaft to the sensor. In addition, the encoder

remains tight and highly protected during its

entire lifespan.

The accessories enclosed in the delivery help

to mount encoder and positioning element at an

optimal distance from each other. LEDs indicate

the switching status.

 

Status display via LED

green steady:

Optimal sensor supply

yellow steady:

Positioning element has reached the end of the

measuring range. This is indicated by a lower

signal quality.

yellow flashing:

Positioning element is outside the measuring

range.

off:

Positioning element is in the measuring range.
