Step 4
Press the flat surface mount against the putty. Make
sure that the mount is pressed deep enough.
CAUTION: ALLOW PUTTY TO DRY FOR 10 MINUTES
BEFORE MOVING ON TO STEP 5 TO MAKE SURE
THAT THE INSTALLATION IS ROBUST. THE AMBIENT
TEMPERATURE AND THE SURFACE TEMPERATURE
MUST BE WITHIN 15 °C – 35 °C (59 °F – 95 °F) FOR THE
PUTTY TO CURE.
Step 5
Fasten the ABB Ability™ Smart Sensor to the flat sur-
face mount by using the M6 hexagon socket screw.
Tighten the screw with 10 Nm (7.4 ft-lb) of torque.
Make sure to hold the sensor while tightening the
screw to avoid exerting torque on the putty and the
flat surface mount.
Step 6
Make sure that the ABB Ability™ Smart Sensor is
mounted parallel to the rotating shaft. Assemble
the screw hole cover to hide the screw hole.
