Installation instructions
Where to mount:
1. Sensor must be located between the drive-end and non-drive-
end bearings, as close to the center as possible. Note: The sensor
mount cannot be removed after installation.
2. For best Bluetooth® communication, mount the sensor with a
clear line of sight to any communication devices to be used: your
smartphone or a Bluetooth® gateway.
3. The mounting orientation must be such that the A-axis on the
sensor housing is parallel to the rotating shaft. If this is not
physically possible, the T-axis must be parallel to the rotating
shaft.
Supported motors
• This mounting instruction applies for fin-cooled motors up to frame sizes equivalent to IEC 450.
