Attaching the Sensor(s) NOTE
Where possible mounting sensors to the machine should be done in
conjunction with pulling cables. If a sensor has to be mounted at another time,
then the bundled cable must be secured to the machine and protected from
damage.
1. Using a plant-approved cleaner/degreaser, remove any lubricating
fluid used during the tapping process.
2. If necessary, clean mounting stud threads using plant approved
degreaser/cleaner.
3. Using plant-approved Loctite
TM
, rub a small amount of Loctite onto
spot face.

A0322 mounting stud (included
with the accelerometer), and
optional A212 mounting pad
(epoxy mount only).
4. Using 1/8" allen wrench loosely screw mounting stud into mounting
location.
5. Using torque wrench with 1/8" hex bit, torque to 7-8 ft-lbs. Stud Mount
only: If after correct torquing, the A0322 mounting stud is not seated
against spot face this is an indication that the tap was not deep
enough. It will be necessary remove the mounting stud and tap the
hole deeper.
6. Apply a thin coating of Loctite semi-permanent thread locker to
threads on sensor housing.
7. Place sensor onto A0322 mounting stud and hold in desired position
to create the least amount of cable strain and cable exposure.
Holding sensor, hand-tighten 9/16" captive nut and use a torque
wrench with 9/16" open end to finish tightening to 50-60 in-lbs. (See
Figure 3-7.)
