Safety Instructions
11.2 PRELIMINARY RECOMMENDATIONS
NOTE!
Follow the installation guidelines described in chapter 4. Read the whole manual before
installing or operating the WEGscan 100 .
DANGER!
Only qualified people familiar with the WEGscan 100 should plan or execute the instal-
lation, operation and maintenance of this device. Such personnel must follow all the
safety instructions contained in this guide and/or defined by local regulations.
For safety reasons, keep a safe distance from the sensor and from the motor during its
operation (no less than 20 cm), allowing only authorized personnel to get close. Failure
to comply with the safety instructions may lead to death and/or damages to the device.
The marking on the sensor and in the quick installation guide must correspond to the
classification of the area where the sensor will be installed.
The user is responsible for the correct classification of the installation area and the
characteristics of the environment. Improper application jeopardizes the product and
installation safety and can result in serious personal and material damage.
ATTENTION!
Special conditions for safe use:
The "X" next to the number of some certificates, informed in the marking of the sensor,
indicates that it requires special conditions for installation, use and/or maintenance of
the equipment, which are described in the certificate.
Failure to comply with these requirements compromises the safety of the product and
installation. For your reference, the item Certifications and Regulations presents the list
of certificates.
DANGER!
Risk of electric shock. Do not touch electrically energized parts or devices. Before
beginning to install the device, disconnect the asset power supply. The temperature
of the asset surface may be high and cause burns and injuries. Before beginning to
install the sensor, wait for the necessary time for the asset to cool down. Use suitable
instruments to measure the temperature of the asset.
DANGER!
The sensor is supplied in a plastic housing that may store electrostatic charge. The
sensor must be maintained so that electrostatic charges are avoided. Therefore, the
sensors must be cleaned carefully, for example, using a damp cloth, in order to avoid
the generation of electrostatic discharges.

1.4 DISPOSAL AND RECYCLING
WEG is committed to the environment and supplies products that contribute to reducing the environmental
impacts along their life cycle. The user’s participation in the waste sorting and recycling of the battery and
electro-electronic devices is also important to minimize their potential impact on the environment and human
health. The proper disposal of the sensor, observing the applicable laws, is very important for your safety
and also for the environment, in addition to helping save resources.
ATTENTION!
The WEGscan 100 battery is replaceable. At the end of the battery life, it must be
collected as used electrical and electronic equipment. For information on the return or
collection for the proper disposal and recycling of the product, contact WEG or send
the sensor to one of our authorized service centers.
Sensors and batteries must be disposed of separately at an appropriate collection
point and not placed in the conventional waste stream. They cannot be disposed of in
incinerators and city landfills either. Disposal of sensors and batteries must be done in
accordance with local regulations. Battery removal and recycling should only be carried
out by qualified professionals.

POSICIONAMENTO DO SENSOR – APLICAÇÃO: ATIVO MOTOR ELÉTRICO WEG DA
LINHA W40
The sensor can be installed on motors of the W40 line following the positions shown in Figure 4.3 (for frames
IEC 160 to 280S/M, if the terminal box is on top, place the sensor on the side base as shown in Figure 4.3a; if
the terminal box is on the side, place the sensor on top as shown in Figure 4.3b). In the case of the top box,
if there is any component on one of the side bases, it must be fixed on the opposite base.

SENSOR POSITIONING – APPLICATION: WEG ELECTRIC MOTOR OF THE W60 LINE
Due to the design of W60 motors, it is recommended to mount the WEGscan on the side base (Figure 4.5).
The WEGscan must be positioned at the shaft center height, centered in the motor length. If the terminal box
occupies the indicated region, place the WEGscan on the opposite side to the connection box. The sensor
can be positioned with an offset of up to 40 mm in the axial direction, and up to 20 mm in the transverse to
the axial direction in relation to the recommended position.

4.4 SENSOR POSITIONING FOR INSTALLATION ON ROLLING BEARINGS
The WEGscan must be installed in a position close to the rolling bearings. A recommendation, if possible, is
to follow what is described in ISO 20816 (Mechanical vibration - Measurement and evaluation of machine
vibration). However, the WEGscan can be installed in a more convenient position. In this case, the sensors
can be fixed using adhesive, either applying it directly to the WEGscan or using an intermediate base.

intermediate base.

5 INSTALLATION PROCEDURE
5.1
PROCEDURE FOR INSTALLATION WITH BUSHING - APPLICATION: ELECTRIC MO-
TOR
For the correct mounting of the sensor on the motor, in the center position, the following sequence of steps
must be performed:
1.
With the motor turned off and observing all the safety instructions indicated in this manual, locate the
motor position where the sensor must be fixed. According to the positioning guidelines indicated in
chapter 2 on page 4-2 and make the mark to make the hole.
2.
For motors with fins, drill a through hole in the fin. In motors without fins, make a 9 mm deep hole. To
that end, use a 5.9 mm (15/64") diameter drill bit.
3.
Using a hammer, insert the knurled bushing into the hole until the ring touches the motor fin, as shown
in Figure 5.1. (Note: if the bushing is inserted without the aid of a hammer, it means that the hole has
a slightly larger diameter and, in this case, the sensor’s fastening to the motor will be compromised.
Therefore, it is necessary to drill a new hole for the correct fastening of the bushing).
Figure 5.1:Detail of the insertion of the knurled bushing
4.
Using a 3 mm Allen wrench, screw the sensor into the knurled bushing and check its tightness. The
maximum tightening torque is 4.0 Nm. As per Figure 5.2 on page 5-1.

5.2
PROCEDURE FOR INSTALLATION WITHOUT BUSHING – APPLICATION: ELECTRIC
MOTOR
For the correct mounting of the sensor on the motor in the center position without using the knurled bushing,
the following sequence of steps must be performed:
1.
With the motor turned off and observing all the safety instructions indicated in this manual, locate the
motor position where the sensor must be fixed. According to the positioning guidelines indicated in
chapter 2 on page 4-2 and make the mark to make the hole.
2.
For motors with fins, drill a through hole in the fin. In motors without fins, make a 13 mm deep hole. To
that end, use a 3.3 mm diameter drill bit.
3. Using an M4 tap, make the thread in the hole drilled in step 2.
4.
Using a 3 mm Allen wrench, screw the sensor into the knurled bushing and check its tightness. The
maximum tightening torque is 4.0 Nm. As per Figure 5.2 on the page 5-1.
5.3 INSTALLATION PROCEDURE – APPLICATION: OTHER ASSETS
For the correct fixation of the sensor with a screw in other positions/assets where you want to monitor
vibration and temperature, you must perform the following sequence of steps:
1.
With the equipment turned off and observing all the safety instructions indicated in this manual, define
a position for fixing the sensor. This position depends on what you want to measure. For example, if
the variable of interest is vibration, you should avoid mounting it close to the asset fixation point; if the
variable of interest is temperature, you should install the sensor in a location with high temperature.
Mark the point to drill the hole.
2. By inserting a knurled bushing:
(a) Drill a 5.9 mm (15/64") hole at least 9 mm deep.
(b)
Using a hammer, insert the knurled bushing into the hole until the ring touches the surface of the
asset. (Note: if the bushing is inserted without the aid of a hammer, it means that the hole has a
slightly larger diameter and, in this case, the sensor’s fastening to the motor will be compromised.
Therefore, it is necessary to drill a new hole for the correct fastening of the bushing).
3. By creating a thread:
(a) Drill a 3.3 mm hole at least 13 mm deep.
(b) Using an M4 tap, make the thread in the hole drilled in the previous step.
4.
Using a 3 mm Allen wrench, screw the sensor into the knurled bushing and check its tightness. The
maximum tightening torque is 4.0 Nm. As per Figure 5.2 on the page 5-1.
