Application hints
A straight - line pulling of the wire is recommended !
An angle of pulling direction larger 3° will cause damage of the
wire inlet and malfunctions of pull-back mechanism will occur
after a short time on duty.
An angle of pulling direction up to 3° is possible, but not
recommended.
The lifetime may be reduced.
Never let snap back the wire. Free back-running wire will damage the device.
Danger of hurt occures!
Don´t pull the wire directly. The wire
may be bended and this will cause
trouble in the pull-back mechanism.
Don´t pull the wire along of edges.
The wires will be damaged.
To prevent damage of the measuring wire, following handlings must be avoided:
The wire inlet must not be mounted in an upright position. Water
is running along the wire into the casing. Because of the drilled
construction of the wire there is no smooth surface and no 100%
sealing is possible.
If there is no formation of ice on the wire is expected, a horizontal
mounting position of the wire inlet is possible. The inlet should be
mounted downside, if possible.
If formation of ice on the
can be expected, always a pulley
should be applied to break the ice. I
he inlet should
always be mounted downwards. This arrangement is preferred
anytime, where moisture or dust on the
will be expected.

On duty at moist or dusty environments:
To enhance a better lifetime of the wire:
A straight pulling direction is allways the best choice.
This can be realised by using, however, a pulley.
Electrical connection of an already mounted encoder
The encoder has to be connected according to the label of the encoder. The encoder is factory-
adjusted. A change of the output signal is only possible by any measuring systems. For programmable
encoder system you will find the instructions enclosed. Measuring systems with a built-in measuring
transformer can be insignificant readjusted via the zero point and steepness control.
