Procedure to Installation
3.2 PROCEDURE FOR INSTALLATION WITHOUT BUSHING - APPLICATION: ELECTRIC
MOTOR ASSET
For the correct mounting of the sensor on the motor, follow the steps below:
1. With the motor turned off and observing all the safety instructions indicated in this manual, find the position on
the motor where the sensor will be installed. Mark the points for drilling as indicated in
OF THE SENSOR FOR INSTALLATION on page
2. For motors with fins, drill a through hole in the fin. In motors without fins, make a 13 mm deep hole. To that
end, use a 3.3 mm drill bit.
3. Using an M4 tap, make the thread in the hole made in step 3.
4. Using a 3 mm Allen wrench, screw the sensor into the threaded hole and check the tightening. The maximum
tightening torque is 2.8 Nm. (see
3.3 PROCEDURE TO INSTALLATION - APPLICATION: OTHER ASSETS
For the correct mounting of the sensor on the motor, follow the steps below:
1. With the equipment turned off and observing all the safety instructions indicated in this manual. Set a position
for fixing the sensor. This position is dependent on the quantity to be measured. For example, if the variable
of interest is vibration, one should avoid fixing it close to the fixation point of the asset, if the variable of interest
is temperature, one should fix the sensor in a location with high temperature. And make the appointment to
perform the drilling.
2. Drill a smooth hole with a 5.9 mm (15/64") diameter drill, the depth of the hole must be at least 9 mm.
3. Using a hammer, insert the knurled bushing into the hole until the flange touches the surface of the asset.
(Note: If the sleeve is inserted without the aid of hammer means that the hole was slightly larger diameter, in
which case the sensor fixing the engine will be compromised. Therefore, it is necessary to make a new hole
for the correct fixing of the bushing).
4. Using a 3 mm Allen wrench, screw the sensor into the knurled bushing and check its tightness. Maximum
tightening torque of 2.8 Nm. (see
