2.3 Installation, commissioning and operation
The position sensors must be used only in technically safe
conditions. To maintain this condition and to ensure safe
operation, installation, connection and service, work may be
performed only by qualified technical personnel.
If danger of injury to persons or of damage to operating
equipment is caused by sensor failure or malfunction,
additional safety measures such as plausibility checks, limit
switches, EMERGENCY STOP systems, protective devices
etc. are required. In the event of trouble, shut down the
sensor and protect it against accidental operation.
Safety instructions for commissioning
To maintain the sensor operability, it is mandatory to follow
the instructions given below.
1. Protect the sensor against mechanical damage during
installation and operation.
2. Do not open or dismantle the sensor.
3. Connect the sensor very carefully and pay attention to
the polarity of connections and power supply.
4. Use only approved power supplies.
5. Ensure the sensor is operating within the defined limits
for supply voltage, environmental conditions, etc.
6. Check the function of the sensor regularly and provide
documentation of the checks.
7. Before system switch-on, ensure that nobody’s safety
is jeopardized by starting machines.
2.4 Safety instructions for use in explosion-hazardous
areas
The sensors are not suitable for operation in explosion-
hazardous areas.
2.5 Warranty
MTS Sensors grants a warranty 2period for the Temposonics®
position sensors and supplied accessories relating to
material defects and faults that occur despite correct use in
accordance with the intended application. The MTS Sensors
obligation is limited to repair or replacement of any defective
part of the unit. No warranty can be taken for defects that are
due to improper use or above average stress of the product,
as well as for wear parts. Under no circumstances will MTS
Sensors accept liability in the event of offense against the
warranty rules, no matter if these have been assured or
expected, even in case of fault or negligence of the company.
MTS Sensors explicitly excludes any further warranties.
Neither the company’s representatives, agents, dealers nor
employees are authorized to increase or change the scope
of warranty.
2.6 Return
For diagnostic purposes, the sensor can be returned to
MTS Sensors or a repair facility explicitly authorized by MTS
Sensors. Any shipment cost will be borne by the sender 2.

Typical use of magnets
Ring magnet
For: RH
• Rotationally symmetrical magnetic field
U-magnet
For: RP & RH
• The magnet can be lifted off (RP)
• Height tolerances can be compensated
Block magnet
For:RP & RH
• The magnet can be lifted off
• Height tolerances can be compensated
Magnet slider
For: RP
• The magnet is guided by the profile.
• The distance between the magnet and
the waveguide is strictly defined
• Easy coupling via the ball joint

1U-magnet
2Non-magnetic mounting device and screws
Install the magnet using non-magnetic material for mount-
ing device, screws, spacers etc.. The magnet must not grind
on the sensor rod. Alignment errors are compensated via the
air gap.
• Max. permissible surface pressure: 40 N/mm2
• Max. fastening torque for M4 screws: 1 Nm;
use washers, if necessary
NOTICE
Mount the ring magnet and U-magnet concentrically.
Mount the block magnet centrically.
The maximum permissible air gap must not be exceeded.
Take care to mount the primary sensor axis in parallel to
the magnet path in order to avoid damage to the carriage,
magnet and sensor rod.
4. Installation & mounting
Controlling design dimensions are in millimeters and
measurements in ( ) are in inches
Magnet mounting with magnetic material
When using magnetic material the dimensions in the drawing
beneath must be observed. If the position magnet is set
further into the piston rod install another non-magnetic
spacer above the magnet.
Sensors with stroke lengths ≥ 1 meter
Support horizontally installed sensors with a stroke length
from 1 meter mechanically at the rod end. Without the use of
a support, rod and position magnet may be damaged. A false
measurement result is also possible. Longer rods require
evenly distributed mechanical support over the entire length
(e.g. part no. 561 481). Use an U-magnet for measurement.

Placement of installation and cabling have decisive influence
on the sensor‘s electromagnetic compatibility (EMC). Hence
correct installation of this active electronic system and the
EMC of the entire system must be ensured by using suitable
metal connectors, shielded cables and grounding. Overvolt-
ages or faulty connections can damage its electronics despite
protection against wrong polarity.
NOTICE
1. Do not mount the sensors in the area of strong magnetic
or electric noise fields.
2. Never connect / disconnect the sensor when voltage is
applied.
Instructions for connection
• Use low-resistant twisted pair and shielded cables. Connect
the shield to ground externally via the controller equipment.
• Keep control and signal cables separate from power cables
and sufficiently far away from motor cables, frequency
inverters, valve lines, relays, etc..
• Use only connectors with metal housing and connect the
shielding to the connector housing.
• Keep the connection surface at both shielding ends as
large as possible. Connect the cable clamps to function as
a ground.
• Keep all non-shielded leads as short as possible.
• Keep the earth connection as short as possible with a large
cross section. Avoid ground loops.
• With potential differences between machine and electronics
earth connections, no compensating currents are allowed
to flow across the cable shielding.
Recommendation:
• Install potential compensating leads with large cross
section, or use cables with separate double shielding, and
connect only one end of the shield.
• Use only stabilized power supplies in compliance with the
specified electrical ratings.
