Installation Guidelines
- Ensure the test kit is placed on a stable, level surface. The base includes vibration isolation feet to minimize external interference.
- Verify the power supply voltage setting (115V or 230V) matches the local power source before connecting.
- When mounting the proximity probe, ensure it is securely held in the universal mount without over-tightening the clamp.
- Connect the Proximitor sensor to the probe using the appropriate extension cable and provide the required -24 VDC power to the sensor.
- Use a digital multimeter to monitor the gap voltage while adjusting the micrometer in calibrated increments to verify the Incremental Scale Factor (ISF).
- Always power down the test kit and disconnect from the power source before performing maintenance or cleaning.
