Version: 1.0
Beckhoff supplies pre-assembled power and feedback lines. For the
selection of the cables required, refer to the Beckhoff documentation
for the connecting cables. In the documentation you will find a com-
plete overview of the available cables and information on the techni-
cal data.
Maximum number of mating cycles
The information on maximum mating cycles can be found in the re-
spective data sheets at www.beckhoff.com.
Do not lay the cable in drag chains
The cable of the AL8200 is firmly encapsulated with the sensor
head. It is part of the wear-free product. Do not lay the cable in a
drag chain.
A limited service life or damage to the magnetic encoder system is
the result. Non-compliance will void the warranty and other claims
for damages.
Avoid soiling and damage
When connecting the coupling and the plug, make sure that the
poles and the inside of the component are not soiled or damaged.
Failure to do so may adversely affect the function of the connec-
tions.
Hint for trouble-free application and assembly:
• Wiring in accordance with applicable regulations and standards
• Use of pre-assembled and shielded Beckhoff cables
Beckhoff offers pre-assembled cables for faster and flawless instal-
lation of the magnetic encoder system. These cables are tested with
regard to the material used, shielding and connection type. The use
of other cables can cause unexpected malfunctions and result in ex-
clusion of warranty.
