Typically, you should mount the sen-
sor onto an even, smooth, and hard
support surface, for example a plastic,
glass or metal plate.
 Always place the actuator per-
pendicular to the sensor surface
in the centre of the active area.
You should avoid offset mounting.
Ensure that the actuator is smaller
than the active area of the sensor.
If this is not feasible, use a soft ac-
tivator for force transmission and
distribution, for example a soft rub-

 To avoid possible signal drift, do
not expose the sensor to perma-
nent load.
 To avoid mechanical pre-load and
false signals, never bend the sen-
sor in the active area.
 To avoid broken conductor lines,
do not bend the connection tail to
a radius of < 5 mm.
 All sensors feature an air vent. Take
care not to block it and to avoid
liquids from penetrating through it.
