Installation & Maintenance
Verify that the mounting flange and 8mm shaft match the intended application equipment.
Carefully align the encoder shaft to prevent mechanical stress and premature wear; use flexible couplings if necessary.
Securely fasten the encoder with mounting screws to minimize vibrations.
Connect power supply (5-30V DC) observing polarity and follow wiring diagrams for the chosen output signals.
Employ shielded cables for output signals to avoid electromagnetic interference in industrial environments.
Regularly check for dust accumulation and clean the encoder surface gently as needed.
Periodically inspect wiring connections to avoid loose contacts.
Replace the encoder if abnormal signal behavior or mechanical damage occurs.
