Incremental Encoder Ex FG 40 The installation described below is only an example and can vary depending on the type of coupling. The special instructions of the coupling manufacturer must be observed. 1. Lightly grease the (motor) shaft (1) and centring (9) 2.
Incremental Encoder Ex FG 40 5.5 Mounting tolerances for Construction Type B5 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.
Incremental Encoder Ex FG 40 5.6.2 Electrical connection 1. Open the housing cover (16 Fig. 1). WARNING! The cylindrical surface of the housing cover represents a part of flameproof gap. If the surface is damaged, the encoder must not longer be used in the potentially explosive environments.
Incremental Encoder Ex FG 40 CAUTION! Do not apply supply voltage to the signal outputs, as this will destroy the device! NOTES! Use only for the hazardous area approved cable glands that conform to the specifications on the nameplate. Carefully observe all instructions of the manufacturer.
Signal end stage overloaded Check pin assignment; observe connection diagram Do not assign unused outputs Signal interruptions Outputs short-circuited Do not connect outputs with supply voltage or GND Contact Hubner-Service (page 2) if none of the remedies listed above provides a solution)!
