5.4 ABSOCODER Sensor Installation Precautions
This section explains precautions for ABSOCODER sensor installation.
5.4.1 Installation of MRE series ABSOCODER sensor
Installation of the ABSOCODER sensor must be executed according to the dimensions shown in
the drawings.
Although the MRE sensor is more rugged than general optical encorders, care should be taken
nevertheless to avoid shocks and unbalanced loads upon installation. For example, if an
excessive radial load or thrust load is applied to the shaft-end, the sensor accuracy could be
compromised. To avoid such problems, a suitable coupling method is recommended.
5.4.2 Precautions when connecting ABSOCODER sensor
(1) Connection should be made using the special cable, with the connector being securely
tightened.
(2) If further length is desired, an extension cable (with connector) must be ordered separately.
Refer to Item 2.7 for details regarding extension cables.
(3) The maximum length for which extension is possible varies according to the ABSOCODER
sensor model which is used. Refer to Item 2.6 for details.
(4) A robotic cable must be used if the special ABSOCODER sensor cable is to be used at a
movable area of the system. In such a case, the cable should never be bent to from a radius of
less than 75mm.
