Alignment of the Sensor to the Magnetic Ring

For rotative or radial applications with a magnetic ring, the diameter of the ring must be large enough so that
both active sensor areas (see red hatched surfaces in the figure below) are within the permitted mounting dis-
tance of max. 4.0 mm. For this purpose, the center between the distance of both sensor surfaces and the center
of the magnetic ring has to be aligned (see side view below - dimension 20.5 mm). Viewed from above, the
center of the sensor must be aligned to the center of the magnetic tape (see top view).
