Mounting

Note
• To ensure the most ideal location, test the SITRANS AS100 by clamping the Sensor to the
application, and running a trial period to determine the system's performance. The
acoustic emission level can be monitored by a voltmeter across the analog output. Refer
to Interconnection (Page 11).
• Coating the contact surfaces with grease enhances the propagation of acoustic emissions
to the Sensor.
