Encoder Mounting and General Information
The provided encoder is a precision instrument which outputs 3000
Do not apply excessive axial or radial thrust on encoder shaft (rated for 30lbs. axial thrust).
Do not press or dive gears or pinions on the encoder shaft.
Encoders are an instrument containing an accurately posi- tioned electronic system. Dropping will cause damage as the inner disc is made of glass and is easily damaged.
Parts should slide freely on the shaft prior to securing with a clamp or set screw. (.001 slide fit).
Excessive clearance in mounting hole can lead to inaccuracy.
If encoder is taken apart, the warranty is invalidated. (seal bro- ken)
Encoder wheel should not exceed .001 TIR.
If mounting encoder and wheel assembly on belt or roller:
●Tighten bracket to facilitate no vertical movement.
●Apply encoder wheel to surface to be measured in position that will not allow slippage, but confirms to above warn- ings.
Alternatives to above mounting of encoder:
●Direct drive through solid (precision board) coupling to encoder on output side of any type gear box to remove error due to backlash in gears.
●Use
