The safety of the instrument also depends on the strict observance of the procedures indicated in
the manual: always operate the instrument in its functioning capacity and carry out a careful
routine maintenance.
Note:
All phases of inspection and maintenance should be carried out by qualified staff.
The configurations provided in the manual are the only ones permitted.
Do not try to use the instrument in any way which is contrary to the provided indications.
The instructions in this manual do not substitute but are complimentary to the obligations of
the applicable legislation regarding safety laws.
Installation
Before installing the instrument, take note of the following warnings:
a) Connect the instrument following strictly the instructions of the manual.
b) It is the responsibility of the user to check, before using, the correct settings of the parameters
of the instrument to avoid damage to persons or things.
c) The instrument MUST NOT BE IN FUNCTION IN A DANGEROUS ENVIRONMENT
(inflammable or explosive).
d) The unit has parts sensitive to electrostatic charges, therefore handling of the inner
electronic parts must be carried out with appropriate care to avoid permanent damage.
Description
The electronic position indicator EP7, supplied with an internal battery, integrates in the same case
a position sensor and a display unit, and constitutes a device for measuring linear or angular
movements: it is compact, easy to install and applicable in many types of industry (packaging,
woodworking, aluminum, coil, etc.)
The display has 4 digit plus a sign (range -9999 +9999) with 7,5mm-high digits that allow an
excellent readability also at a distance.
With the frontal button it is possible to program the value on the display for each turn of the hollow
shaft and activate the following functions: reset/preset of the displayed value, absolute/relative
displayed value, mm/inches conversion.
On the display all activated functions are showed by a symbol.
The electronic parts are protected inside an elegant and resistant case made of self-extinguishing
and shock-proof plastic material.
The power supply is internal and is based on a single ½AA 3,6V battery which has a typical 5 year
lifetime. Low-power is indicated on the display with an icon; battery substitution is very easy and
does not cause loss of the correct displayed value when carried out without moving the shaft.

Mechanical installation

Fit the EP3 through its hollow shaft onto the machine shaft, taking care that the lock pin fits
correctly into the Ø6mm hole.
For this purpose, prepare the hole for the lock pin (bore 6,1mm, depth 6mm) ensuring that the
distance between the axis of the hole and the axis of the drive shaft is 22mm, see image 1 and 2
below.
