    Installation and First Start-Up 5 Installation and First Start-Up CAUTION Please read the operating manual carefully before using the device! Strictly observe the Instal- lation instructions! In case of damage caused by failure to observe this operating manual, the warranty expires. ELGO is not liable for any secondary damage and for damage to persons, property or assets.
  • Page 12: Installation Of The Magnetic Tape

    Installation and First Start-Up Installation of the Magnetic Tape NOTE External Magnetic Fields The magnetic tape must not be influenced by external magnetic fields! The magnetic tape must not come into direct contact with other magnetic fields (e.g. perma- nent magnets, magnetic clamps, electromagnets, magnetic stands)! This may cause irrepara- ble damage, which will compromise the measuring accuracy or even the functioning.
  • Page 13 Installation and First Start-Up 5.2.2 Handling In order to avoid tension in the tape, it must not be stretched, compressed or twisted. It should be stored with the magnetized plastic tape to the outside (see Figure5), the minimum bending radius must be noted here Magnetized Plastic tape...
  • Page 14 Installation and First Start-Up The tape must be glued smoothly on the surface. The measuring accuracy decreases if the tape is not even! Before gluing the magnetic tape and the cover tape onto the surface, they should be left lying on the mounting surface for ca.
  • Page 15: Installation Of The Sensor

    Installation and First Start-Up Installation of the Sensor For mounting the sensor two M3 screws are required. Observe the tolerances stated below. 5.3.1 Mechanical Tolerances Tolerances Magnetic tape type MB20-20-10-1-R Ride height 0.1 mm…max. 0.8 mm Pitch The maximum distance of 0.8 mm must not be exceeded at any position Yaw angle +/- 5 °...
  • Page 16 Installation and First Start-Up 5.3.2 Alignment of Sensor / Magnetic Tape Since the active sensor surface is not in the center of the sensor housing, it should be ensured that the sensor head is aligned and mounted such that the active sensor surface is in the middle of the magnetic tape. This is achieved in a simple manner and without additional equipment.
