Installation steps
Note
Make sure that the bracket can be clamped to the cooling fin
such that the neighboring fins do not prevent attaching the
sensor.
Step 1
Check the gap between the legs of the mounting bracket to
match the thickness of your motor's cooling fins. If necessary,
use a vise to tighten the bracket so that it can clamp firmly onto
the cooling fin.
Step 2
Degrease the upper and lower surfaces of the selected fin at
the recommended mounting position.
CAUTION: REVIEW AND FOLLOW ALL MANUFACTURER'S INSTRUCTIONS
AND SAFETY PRECAUTIONS WHEN USING SOLVENTS.
Step 3
Apply Loctite TM 454 glue or similar to the clamping bracket legs
before attaching it to the fin.
CAUTION: REVIEW AND FOLLOW ALL MANUFACTURER'S INSTRUCTIONS
AND SAFETY PRECAUTIONS WHEN USING GLUE.
Step 4
Clamp the mounting bracket onto the cooling fin of the motor.
Step 5
Use a hammer with a rubber or plastic head to assist with
insertion of the mounting bracket until the edge of the cooling
fin touches the inside face of the bracket.
Do not hit the central screw of the bracket!
