Installation Guide
Grounding
All touchable metal parts that may be live during operation or maintenance must be
connected to protective earth.
Mechanical processing
Neodymium magnets are brittle and sensitive to heat.
Mechanical processing of sliders and the magnets they contain is not permitted.
•
When two magnets collide, they can shatter. Sharp-edged splinters can be thrown for
metres and injure your eyes.
•
Machining the slider would generate heat that demagnetises the magnets.
Slider and stator
Sliders consist of a high-precision, thin-walled stainless steel tube, stators of coated iron. As
the permanent magnets may be present in both components, MagSpring sliders and stators
should be handled with care. Avoid contact with other sliders, stators or iron parts as this
may damage the magnets and the surface. Do not grip sliders and stators with pliers, as this
can also damage the surface. Sliders with already damaged surfaces (scratches,
deformations, etc.) should not be used further (this can damage the stator).
Effect on humans
According to current knowledge, magnetic fields from permanent magnets have no
measurable positive or negative effect on humans. A health hazard from the magnetic field
of a permanent magnet is unlikely, but cannot be completely ruled out.
•
For your safety, avoid permanent contact with the magnets.
•
Keep large magnets at least one metre away from your body.
Temperature resistance
Keep the sliders away from open flame and heat.
At temperatures above 80°C the slider is demagnetised.
