5. Installation Notes

  • Use the fixing holes on the mounting base or bracket and select the correct installation orientation according to the equipment structure and available space.
  • Keep the wire rope outlet aligned with the moving point as much as possible. During operation, the rope should move in a straight line and the angle deviation should be minimized to maintain accuracy and extend service life.
  • For long vertical stroke applications, it is recommended to install the sensor body at the lower position and pull the wire rope upward.
  • The wire rope is made of stainless steel. Avoid cuts, welding sparks, impact, excessive dust, debris buildup, and corrosive environments.
  • Before the product is fully installed and fixed, do not pull out the wire rope by hand or other objects and allow it to retract suddenly, as this may cause rope breakage, product damage, or personal injury.
  • For non-linear motion, use a suitable pulley or guide mechanism to convert the movement into linear travel.
  • For WPS-XL series products, the recommended rope acceleration should not exceed 1.5m/s², and the absolute speed should not exceed 0.75m/s to maintain reliability and service life.
