4. Installation
For mounting, the degree of protection specified
must be observed. If necessary, protect the unit
against environmental influences such as sprayed
water, dust, knocks, extreme temperatures.
Slide GP09 onto the solid shaft, insert torque pin
into the prebored mounting hole and use grub
screw M4 to fix the GP09's hollow shaft to the
machine's solid shaft (see fig. 1).
Ensure sliding fit between solid shaft and
GP09.
Ensure accurate shaft alignment and mount the
GP09 without force. Ensure that the encoder is
mounted without strain. If the shaft is not cor-
rectly aligned, strain on the bearings will result,
which may cause overheating and irreparable
damage.
Especially when using torque pin type A for
fixing, ensure that GP09 does not jam and that it
is mounted without strain. Please remember this
when choosing the GP09's bore diameter.
Knocks on the unit should be avoided!
