Incremental Encoder FG 2 6.4 Mounting preparations 1. Ensure all accessories are available (please refer to Chapter 13 Dimension drawings). NOTES! Fastening screws and earth cable are not included in the range of supply. 2. Preparing the place of attachment: Clean the (motor) shaft, centering, bolting surfaces and fastening threads;...
Page 16
Incremental Encoder FG 2 Lightly grease the (Motor) Schaft (1) an Centerin (9). Fit coupling (2) onto (motor) shaft. NOTES! You must be able to mount the coupling without force. Ream out the bores of used couplings, if necessary! Secure the coupling hub on the (motor) shaft with a grub screw or cheese head screw (10) (depending on the coupling type).
Page 17
Incremental Encoder FG 2 6.6 Mounting tolerances NOTES! Angle misalignment and parallel displacement between the (motor) shaft and the encoder shaft are mounting errors and should be kept as small as possible. Mounting errors - Cause radial forces to act on the encoder shaft. - Reduce the service life of the bearings and the coupling.

Incremental Encoder FG 2 6.7 Electrical connection and start up NOTES! You must observe applicable EMC guidelines when routing cables! NOTES for UL and CSA! Do only use copper cables! 6.7.1 Preparing cables 1. Strip cable insulation. The cable for the signal and supply line is shielded, the cable for the option S and the cable for LWL will not be shielded.
Page 19
Incremental Encoder FG 2 6. Connect the supply voltage, the signal cable and possibly option S (please refer to the connection diagrams, Chapter 14). CAUTION! Do not apply supply voltage to the signal outputs, as this will destroy the device! 7.
