WARNINGS AND SAFETY
Although all of the information in this manual has been carefully checked, Danfoss A/S assumes no liability regarding the presence of any errors og damage to property and/or harm to individuals due to any improper use of this manual. Danfoss A/S also reserves the right to make changes to the contents and form of this manual and to the characteristics of the devices illustrated at any time and without prior warning. The installation of the devices illustrated in the manual must be carried out by qualified technicians in compliance with the laws and standards in force and agreement with the instructions contained in the manual. The system should be used only for the expected protection. The sensor must be used by the environmental features and performance of the instrument.
LOAD CONDITIONS
- +0.5Vdc…+4.5 Vdc output with power +9…+36Vdc and +0..10Vdc output with power +11..36Vdc: it is recommended a load resistance > 100 KΩ
- +0.5Vdc…+4.5 Vdc output with power +5 Vdc: it is recommended a load resistance > 10 KΩ
- +4…20 mA output with power < + 15..36Vdc: the maximum load resistance is admissible 200Ω
- +4…20 mA output with power > + 15..36Vdc: the maximum load resistance is admissible 500Ω
MAGNETS
- Magnet should NOT be incorporated in a ferromagnetic housing (Holder)
- Magnet should NOT be installed in close contact with a surface of ferromagnetic material
- If the magnet is incorporated in a housing (holder) of ferromagnetic material or is installed in close contact with a surface of ferromagnetic material, the magnetic field is reduced
- If the magnetic field is reduced, the Air Gap value is no longer guaranteed up to 7 mm,and the usefull working distance magnet-sensor is reduced to <5 mm
- If the application does not allow to use of a material for the magnet bearing surface is necessary to raise the magnet by at least 1 cm
- To raise the magnet of at least 1 cm from the forromagnetic surface we recommend to use NON ferromagnetic screws or spacers
MOUNTING
Mount the sensor using M4 screws in nonmagnetic stainless steel eg AISI 316 or brass (not included). The maximum torque amounts to 2.5Nm.
- It is recommended to use M12 female connectors with a key interface, in order to mount with specied torque using a torque spanner.
- In a harsh environment, we recommend using tread sealing liquid.
