Operation Manual
Sensors with stroke lengths ≥ 1 meter (3.3 ft.)
Support horizontally installed sensors with a stroke length from 1 meter
(3.3 ft.) mechanically at the rod end. Without the use of a support, rod
and posi tion magnet may be damaged. A false measurement result
is also possi ble. Longer rods require evenly distributed mechanical
support over the entire length (e.g. part no. 561 481). Use an U-magnet
(Fig. 42) for measurement.
Magnet mounting with magnetic material
When using magnetic material the dimensions of Fig. 41 must
be observed.
A. If the position magnet aligns with the drilled piston rod
B. If the position magnet is set further into the drilled piston rod, install
another non-magnetic spacer (e.g. part no. 400 633) above the
magnet.
