2.2 Mounting
T ransport Always transport the Checkbox in its original packing; further
transport safety devices are not necessary.
Mounting location Observe especially the following conditions:
– the mounting location must be free of vibration
– there must be stable mechanical fastening
– the ambient air must be clean: free of oil , no paint spray,
no grinding dust
– Screening of external light influences and extreme
magnetic fields (e.g. due to induction furnaces).
In this way you will achieve optimum test results and ensure
alongservicelifeofthedevice.
Conveyor device In order that the test results can be reliable and reproducible,
the conveyor device used should fulfill the following require-
ments:
S Use a high-grade transporting system which conveys the
parts at a constant speed.
S Ensure the stable position of the parts, e.g. by means of
mechanical devices.
S Use also mechanical devices to secure the parts transfer
from the conveyor device to the buffer zone (e.g. drop
pipe, slide, waste) of the subsequent machine.
Space requirement Note the space required for mounting the Checkbox. The
dimensions of the Checkbox and specifications on weight can
be found in the Appendix A.5.
Fastening On the side of the Checkbox there is a mounting profile with
dovetail guide.
