Spring loaded sensor bracket

P-sensors should always be fitted into spring mounted sensor bracket rather than rigid mounting
arrangements.
A substantial advantage is in the fact that the sensor present itself perpendicular to the sheet metal
surface even though sensor bracket and sheet surface may not be completely aligned at a right
angle.
It is important to observe that lateral cable pull does not tilt the sensor. In addition it must be
ensured that the springs do not get stuck. If the springs get stuck tilting of the sensor may result or
stuck springs can actually provoke tilting. Ideally the spring mounted bracket should be pre-loaded
in order to ensure that the sensor is presented perpendicular to the sheet even under dynamic
conditions.
