Installation of EP
The position sensor can be installed in any position. Normally, the
sensor is firmly installed and the position magnet is fastened to
the mobile machine part. Thus it can travel along the sensor rod
contactlessly.
The sensor is fitted on a flat machine surface using mounting clamps
(Fig. 4). A length-dependent number of these clamps are delivered
with the sensor and must be distributed over the profile at regular
distances.
For fastening, we recommend using M5×20 screws according to
DIN 6912 that should be tightened with a maximum fastening torque
of 5 Nm.

NOTICE
Do not mount the sensors in the area of strong magnetic or electric
noise fields. Take care to mount the sensor in an axially parallel
position to avoid damaging the carriage, magnet and sensor rod.
The sensor is isolated from the machine ground. For this reason,
grouding via grounding lug on the sensor electronics housing is
indispensable (Fig. 5).
