FIRST STEPS
WayCon Positionsmesstechnik GmbH would like to thank you for the trust you have placed in
us and our products. This manual will make you familiar with the installation and operation of our
magnetostrictive sensors. Please read this manual carefully before initial operation!
Unpacking and checking:
Carefully lift the device out of the box by grabbing the housing. After unpacking the device, check
it for any visible damage as a result of rough handling during the shipment. Check the delivery for
completeness.
If necessary consult the transportation company, or contact WayCon directly for further assistance.
GENERAL NOTES
The transducer must be installed away from sources of magnetic fields, both static and dynamic. The
connection cable must be wired separately from power cables and/or solenoid controls, drives, or
remote switches. The line used for power supply must be dedicated to the transducers or must be
drawn directly from the power terminals and as near as possible. When choosing a cursor for the MAB
profile, remember that the transducer's cursor is a magnet. Therefore, if there are iron filings or small
magnetic metal fragments in proximity of the transducer, avoid the use of sliding cursors, as there
would be a risk of material accumulation on the cursor, creating problems for sliding. Use a floating
cursor instead.
