Installation in hydraulic cylinders
5.2 Installation types with magnetizable material
If at the installation of the linear sensor magnetizable materials are used, it is
necessary to use not magnetizable material for the spacer with minimum 10 mm
thickness and minimum 3 mm bigger than the perimeter of the position sensor. The
spacer must be mounted between the position sensor and its mounting. For mounting
the position sensor, screws must be used of not magnetizable materials such as
brass, aluminum, plastic etc..
The TR-Linear-Sensors which are made for the external mounting into the hydraulic
cylinder are screwed over a M18 x 1.5 thread. On the side of the flange the sealing is
made radially or axially via an O-ring (No scope of supply!).
