INSTALLATION AND COMMISSIONING
SKF Enlight Collect IMx-1 wireless sensors
SKF Enlight Collect IMx-1 System
User Manual
Revision F
To minimise any sensitivity to pick-up from nearby mains powered equipment or
switching from frequency inverters, the use of direct mounting or an electrically
conductive adhesive is recommended to ensure a good earth connection to the
sensor base.
Note that the mounting detail of the IMx-1 sensor is identical to the SKF Wireless
Machine Condition Sensor, CMWA 8800, and being as the IMx-1 is a little shorter,
the same tools and similar procedures can be applied.
The sensor base, sensor mounting detail and typical mounting studs are shown in
the figure:

Figure 34 Key sensor dimensions and example stud fixing options
The sensor mounting nut is 6-sided, ā6-pointā. When fitting the sensor to the stud,
always apply torque to that mounting nut rather than using the main sensor housing.
See also sensor environmental and physical specifications for other dimensional
data and spanner sizes.
3.3.3 Pre-commissioning tasks
Before any commissioning of sensors commences, each sensor location being
populated should have an associated machine/system location, in the database. This
pre-commissioning work should be done ahead of time so that the database is
populated with information on the sensor configuration and location. Prepare the app
by configuring connection details for that @ptitude Observer instance.
