    60mm: 5.2 Installing / mounting WARNING Before mounting the ALOXY Pulse:  Always wear protective clothing, gloves, and eyewear when performing any installation procedures to avoid personal injury or property damage.  Check with your process or safety engineer for any additional measures that must be taken to protect against process media.

  • Page 15: Usage Of The Aloxy Pulse

    WARNING Loss of explosion protection The Aloxy Pulse can only be used within a process temperature range of -40°C ≤ Ta ≤ +70°C when mounted on pipes or machines. CAUTION Loss of type of protection Damage to device if the enclosure is open or not properly closed. The type of protection specified on the nameplate or in technical data is no longer guaranteed.
  • Page 16 When the Aloxy Pulse should measure a certain motion, for instance the motion of the hand wheel of a manual valve to monitor the valve’s position, make sure that the Aloxy Pulse device is attached to the moving part and follows the same motion as the part it is monitoring. No other...
  • Page 17 A. Installation using double straps (metal or plastic) on a tube- or bar-shape surface: This method ensures good, non-intrusive fixation of the Aloxy Pulse to an asset suitable for instance for movement detection and vibration monitoring. Typical applications are manual valve position monitoring by attachment to a valve lever or a spoke of the valve wheel, vibration monitoring of a tube, asset tracking, etc.
  • Page 18 Torque on screws regarding plastic mounting bracket. The maximum torque of the mounting plate must not be exceeded 1 Nm (0.73 ft lb). This method ensures good, non-intrusive fixation of the Aloxy Pulse to an asset suitable for instance for movement detection and vibration monitoring. Typical applications are manual valve position monitoring by attachment to a valve lever or a spoke or outer ring of the valve wheel, vibration monitoring of a tube, etc.
  • Page 19 Use M5 bolts or screws with a maximum head height of 4 mm, such as hexagon socket head (DIN 7984) cap screws with low head.
