5.4.3 Mounting sensor unit
CAUTION
Risk of injury from rotating machine parts!
When installing the sensor unit while the machine is running,
there is a risk of serious injury caused by exposed, moving machine
parts.
» Do not remove any guards on the machine.
» Always adhere to the safety instructions for work on running
machinery.
• Install the sensor unit at the location with the best possible radio
reception.
• Drill two mounting holes. For the drill pattern, refer to the fixing
tabs on the housing in the dimensional drawing in chapter 3
“Technical data”.
• Secure the sensor unit with two bolts to the machine.
Note
It is also possible to use one sensor unit to monitor two separate
machines of a machine train, for example in cases where only the
bearing at the coupling side of the motor and the pump are to be
monitored. It is, however, not possible to monitor two separate
machine trains with a single sensor unit.
• Document the location of installation of the sensor unit in the
measuring point report as follows: Each sensor unit is supplied
with an adhesive label on which the MAC address of the sensor
unit is printed. Remove this label and stick it to the measuring
point report beside the name of the respective machine or ma-
chine train.
Installation and commissioning
Adhere the label bearing
the MAC address of the
sensor unit on the meas-
uring point report.
