Sensor Cable; Mounting, Mounting Adapter - MICRO-EPSILON interferoMETER IMS5400-DS Quick Manual

Setup, Connection Options

Sensor Cable

Sensor and controller are connected through an
optical fiber.
- Do not shorten or extend the optical fiber.
- Do not pull or hold the sensor on the optical fiber.
Cleaning of the connectors requires the
corresponding know-how.
IMS5x00
Do not kink the optical
fiber.
Do not crush the opti-
cal fiber, do not fasten
it using cable ties.
Please do not grind the
optical fiber over sharp
corners.
Do not pull the optical
fiber.
General Rules
As a matter of principle, avoid:
- any contamination of the connector, e.g., dust or finger
prints
- unnecessary mating cycles.
- any mechanical stress of the optical fiber (bending,
crushing, pulling, twisting, knotting etc.).
- tight curvature of the optical fiber because the glass fiber
is damaged in the process and this causes permanent
damage.
Never bend the cable more tightly than the permissible
bending radius.

Mounting, Mounting Adapter

The IMP-DS19 / -TH45 series sensors use an optical measur-
ing principle that allows for measurements in the nm range.
i
Ensure careful handling during installation and opera-
tion.
Mount the sensors with an outer clamp. Use the MA5400-
10 mounting adapter from the optional accessories.
This type of sensor installation ensures the highest level of
reliability because the sensor's cylindrical cover is clamped
over a relatively large area.
Fixed: R = 30 mm or more
Flexible: R = 40 mm or more
