3. Installation
For mounting, the degree of protection specified
must be observed. If necessary, protect the unit
against environmental influences such as sprayed
water, dust, knocks, extreme temperatures.
3.1 Mounting the magnetic strip
The mounting surface / measuring track must be
flat. Buckles or bumps will lead to measuring
inaccuracies.
For applications which do not allow properly glueing of the magnetic
strip, it can be inserted into a profile rail (accessory) - eg. rail type
PS thus forming a compact mounting unit.
For technical reasons the strip should be approx.
25mm longer than the actual measuring distance.
Attention! To guarantee optimal adhesion oil,
grease dust etc. must be removed by using clean-
sing agents which evaporate without leaving resi-
dues. Suitable cleansing agents are eg. ketones
(acetone) or alcohols; Messrs. Loctite and 3M can
both supply such cleansing liquid. Make sure that
the surface to be glued is dry and apply the strip
with maximum pressure. Glueing should preferably
be undertaken at temperatures between 20 to 30°C
and in dry atmosphere.
Advice! When applying long pieces of magnetic
strip do not immediately remove the complete
protective foil, but rather peel back a short part
from the end sufficient to fix the strip. Now align
the strip. As the protective strip is then peeled
back and out press the tape firmly onto the
mounting surface. A wall paper roller wheel could be
used to assist in applying pressure onto the magne-
tic strip when fixing it in position.
Mounting steps (see fig. 1)
• Clean mounting surface (1) carefully.
• Remove protective foil (2) from the adhesive
side of the magnetic strip (3).
• Stick down the magnetic strip (4).
• Clean surface of magnetic strip carefully.
• Remove protective foil (6) from adhesive tape on
the cover strip (5).
• Fix cover strip (both ends should slightly over-
lap).
• Also fix cover strip's ends to avoid unintentio-
