WARNING
The linear encoder may be used only within the limits of the prescribed and specified
technical data, dimensions and tolerances of the dimensional drawings and operating
conditions, and the specified tightening torques must be complied with.
If used in any other way or if alterations are made to the device – including in the
context of mounting and installation – this will render void any warranty claims directed
to SICK AG.
The linear encoder may be mounted, put into operation, checked, maintained, or used
only by qualified safety personnel.
Safety personnel is qualified when the following requirements are fulfilled:
•
Appropriate technical training of the personnel
•
Instruction of the machine operator in machine operation
•
Access to these operating instructions
This chapter describes the mounting of the linear encoder.
NOTE
Mounting must only be done in accordance with the specified IP enclosure rating (see
technical data).
If applicable, the system must be protected from damaging environmental influences
such as spray water, dust, impacts and temperature.
NOTE
Impacts or shocks must be prevented when mounting the linear encoder.
WARNING
The influence of magnetic fields must be avoided. In particular, magnet fields (e.g.
holding magnets or other permanent magnets) must not come into direct contact with
the magnetic tape.
•
External magnetic fields > approx. 3 ... 4 kA/m (3.8 ... 5 mT) influence the meas‐
urement accuracy.
•
Field strengths > 150 kA/m (> 190 mT) irreversibly change the magnetization of
the magnetic tape.
Disassembly
NOTE
If the linear encoder has to be removed, the mounting steps are to be carried out in
reverse order.
