INSTALLATION

The sensitive axis of the switch can be mounted on any radial axis, although the horizontal 

axis is preferred so the unit sees maximum vibration. The horizontal axis also reduces the 

temperature exposure versus a vertical axis. If a bracket is required, it should be rigidly con

-

structed to prevent spurious mechanical resonances in the SW6000 frequency range.

Stud Mount Unit

The Stud Mount Unit requires a tapped hole, see Metrix Datasheet (doc #1009462) Option 

“F” or use a Metrix model 7084 flange mount adapter. If an NPT mounting stud is selected, 

the stud will tighten before the switch casing touches the machine case. The SW6000 should 

be hand tightened and then wrench tightened to bring the conduit connections to the ap

-

propriate location. Studs with straight threads are provided with a locking nut.

The optional display can be rotated in 90 degree increments to bring it to a readable position. 

Refer to the Wiring Section for further information.
