4.1
Installing the BTL
NOTICE
Improper installation
Improper installation can compromise the function of the
BTL and result in damage.
► Ensure that no strong electrical or magnetic fields are
present in the direct vicinity of the BTL.
► Be sure to maintain the specified distances and
separations.
Any orientation is permitted. Mount the BTL on a level
surface of the machine using the provided mounting
clamps and cylinder-head screws. A sufficient number of
mounting clamps is supplied.
In order to avoid the development of resonant
frequencies from vibration loads, we
recommend arranging the mounting clamps at
irregular intervals.
The BTL is electrically isolated from the machine with the
supplied insulating bushes (see Fig. 3-1).
1. Guide the BTL into the mounting clamps.
2. Attach the BTL to the base using mounting screws
(tighten screws in the clamps with max. 2 Nm).
3. Installing magnet (accessory). When using multiple
magnets see chapter 3.3.
The BTL in profile housing is suitable both for
floating, i.e. non-contacting magnets (see
Fig. 4-4 to Fig. 4-8) and for captive magnets
(see Fig. 4-1 to Fig. 4-3).

Captive magnets
Note when installing the magnet:
–
Avoid lateral forces.
–
Connect the magnet to the machine member with a
joint rod (see Accessories on page 16).
