ProScale Model 150
ProScale Model 150 systems are general purpose absolute measuring
systems designed for taking measurements less than 450mm (18in.).
ProScale is easy to install. By following the basics of good installation in
this section, reliable, error-free operation is assured. Because ProScale
can be installed on many different types and brands of equipment, all
installations will be a little different. Therefore, it's the responsibility of
the installer to choose the bolts, screws, or other mounting hardware that
guarantee proper installation for optimum operation.
Note: If a kit was ordered which contains instructions for installing
ProScale onto a specific product, follow those instructions rather
than the general instructions here.
Mounting:
1. Note the orientation of the readhead on the scale. Be
sure the arrow on the readhead points towards the
“BLACK END OF SCALE”. This orientation is critical
for proper operation of ProScale. Be sure the mounting
location for the readhead and scale will allow this
orientation.
2. Determine an appropriate mounting location for the
system. The readhead should be mounted to a
stationary part of the machine. The scale should be
mounted to the moving part of the machine with the connector link.
Be sure to allow sufficient space to accommodate the connector link,
which is used to mount the scale to the moving part of the machine.
