Installation steps
Notes
• Make sure that the bracket is clamped to the cooling fin such that the neighboring fins do not prevent attaching
the sensor.
• If sensor is installed in hazardous area, prepare the clamp with grounding cable before attaching the sensor to the
clamp.
Step 1
Degrease the upper and lower surfaces of the selected fin at
the recommended mounting position.
CAUTION
Review and obey all manufacturer's instructions and safety
precautions when using degreasing agent.
Step 2
Apply Loctite 454 or equivalent glue evenly along the
TM
entire length of the bracket in two marked places shown in
figure-1. Similarly apply glue evenly to the top of the fin for
the entire length of bracket as shown in figure-2.
CAUTION
Review and obey all manufacturer's instructions and safety
precautions when using glue.
Step 3
Use a hammer with a rubber or plastic head and insert
the mounting bracket until the edge of the cooling fin
touches the inside face of the bracket.
The groove marked in red in the figure is for direct
contact between the clamp and the motor rib.
