Assembly Installing the sensor with mounting kit Fasten the switching lug (1) with screw (2) horizontally on the right gripper finger. Insert sensor (3) from below into holder (5). Insert the screws (4) into the holder (5). Place the holder (5) onto the holder (7) from above and screw the screws (4) to the clamping plate (8).
Assembly Gripper open: Slide the holder (5) together with the sensor (3) to the right end of the holder (7). Slowly move the holder (5) to the left so that the sensor switches. Secure the holder (5) in this position with screws (4). Bring the product into position "Gripper open"...
Assembly Position of the magnetic switches Position "Gripper open" or "Part gripped (I.D. gripping)" Put product in the position in which it is to be set. Slide the sensor 2 (2) from the right into the groove on the holder until it switches. Secure the sensor 2 (2) in this position using the set screw.
Assembly NOTE If there is no T-nut available, slide the sensor according to dimension I1 into the groove (2), } 5.3.3 [/ 22]. Turn the sensor (1) into the groove (2). OR: Slide the sensor (1) into the groove (2) until the sensor (1) stops at the T-nut (3).
