Note

Do not lay the cable in drag chains

The cable of the AL8200 is firmly encapsulated with the sensor head. It is part of the wear-free product. Do not lay the cable in a drag chain.

A limited service life or damage to the magnetic encoder system is the result. Non-compliance will void the warranty and other claims for damages.

Avoid soiling and damage

When connecting the coupling and the plug, make sure that the poles and the inside of the component are not soiled or damaged.

Failure to do so may adversely affect the function of the connections.

Hint for trouble-free application and assembly:

    • Wiring in accordance with applicable regulations and standards
    • Use of pre-assembled and shielded Beckhoff cables

    Beckhoff offers pre-assembled cables for faster and flawless installation of the magnetic encoder system. These cables are tested with regard to the material used, shielding and connection type. The use of other cables can cause unexpected malfunctions and result in exclusion of warranty.
