Overall mounting height
You can increase the overall mounting height and the associated air gap between the bottom of the coil unit and the top of the magnetic plate in the event of tolerance deviations. Tolerance deviations can result from:
- deviations in parallelism or
- deviations in the evenness of the mounting surface
 | Be aware of performance losses with increased air gap Increasing the overall mounting height or the air gap may have performance implications. These follow a non-linear function. Please refer to the diagram in the chapter: Dependencies. Avoid reducing the air gap Reducing the air gap increases the forces of attraction between the coil unit and the magnetic track. This requires larger guides and a stiffer design of the machine or system. |
The following table and figure provide information about the overall mounting heights of the individual series:

AL802x | 40 ± 0.1 |
AL804x | 40 ± 0.1 |
AL806x-0xxx | 45 ± 0.1 |
AL806x-1xxx | 47 ± 0.1 |
