Installation and commissioning
[23]
For sensors with an extension cable, WayCon recommends removing the extension
cable to avoid twisting the cable during mounting and turning the sensor.
Reconnect the extension cable before measuring the output voltage for the fine
adjustment.
• For measuring shaft vibrations, it is sufficient to adjust the sensor to an output
value of -10V ±1 V. See Figure 5-6.
• For static measurements, a precise adjustment to one output value is required,
the sensor is preferably set to one of the three output levels of the converter:
-
For symmetrical displacements around the center point (see
Figure 5-7
, F) to
-10 V ±0.05 V (recommended procedure).
- For the measuring range minimum (= minimum distance) to -2 V ±0.05 V for
single-sided movements to greater distances (
Figure 5-7
, E).
- For the measuring range maximum (= maximum distance) to -18 V ±0.05 V
for single-sided movements to smaller distances. (
Figure 5-7
, G).
- Or to any other value within the measuring range when different distances in
both directions must be measured.
Note
The position of the machine shaft must be known when adjusting the sensor for static
measurement.
