6.1.4 Required accessories, materials and tools
Mounting material
If you use AVENTICS mounting material, see the online catalog for the relevant
data. Important information for assembly:
• Dimensions
• Tightening torques: Observe the values in the online catalog.
If no information is given on tightening torques or you use your own mounting
material, the generally recognized rules of technology apply to assembly.
Tool
• 1 hexagon screwdriver wrench size 1.3
Accessory parts
Depending on the chosen configuration and the application, additional compo-
nents are required to integrate the product into the system and the system's con-
trol.
6.2 Preparation
6.2.1 Notes
• Do not carry out any work on the system during preparation (accident preven-
tion).
6.2.2 Unpacking and checking the product
1. Unpacking the product.
2. Check the material number to see if the product matches your order.
The material number can be found on the housing of the product.
3. Check the product for transport and storage damage.
Do not install a damaged product. Return damaged products together with
the delivery documents (address: see back cover).
4. Prepare required accessories, materials and tools.
6.2.3 Implementing safety measures
Procedure
All work has to be prepared as follows:
1. Close off dangerous areas (accident prevention).
2. Make sure the system or system part is not under pressure or voltage (acci-
dent prevention).
3. Protect the system against being restarted (accident prevention).
4. Allow the product and adjacent system parts to cool down (accident preven-
tion).
5. Wear protective clothing (accident prevention).

Procedure
1. Insert the sensor (1) into the T-slot (2) from above using a light swivel motion
(3) and fix it with the hexagon screwdriver.
2. Connect the sensor to a suitable power supply (see section g 13. Technical
data and the following figures).
The sensor has both an analog voltage output (0 ... 10 V) and a current output
(4 ... 20 mA).
The sensor only activates the output that is switched.

During assembly, the axial orientation of the sensor can be supported by the in-
range display. The LED flashes or lights up when the magnetic piston is in the dis-
tance measuring sensor's permissible measurement range.
3. Move the sensor in axial direction until it records the entire stroke range to be
measured.
4. Fix the sensor in the adjusted position by tightening the two mounting screws
equally.

5. Check whether the sensor records the stroke range to be measured: In-range
display (LED) must light up.
6. If the in-range display does not light up: Re-align the axial orientation of the
sensor.
INFO: An exact axial alignment is the prerequisite for all further steps.
7 Commissioning
Follow the steps below to carry out commissioning.
7.1 Basic requirements
Personnel qualifications
Commissioning only by qualified personnel (see section g 2.5. Personnel qualifi-
cations).
Limits
• Comply with the limits (accident prevention, material protection). Limits: see
section g 13. Technical data.
7.2 Notes on safety
To eliminate risks during commissioning, observe the notes on safety: see section
g 2.6.1. Notes on safety.
