Operating Instructions
KINAX HW730, Programmable hollow-shaft transmitter for angular position
1. Safety instructions
1.1 Symbols
The symbols in these instructions point out risks and have
the following meaning:
Warning in case of risks.
Non-observance can result in malfunc-
tioning.
Non-observance can result in malfunctio-
ning and personal injury.
Information on proper product handling.
1.2 Intended use
The KINAX HW730 transmitter is a precision instrument.
•
It serves the acquisition of angular position, processing
and the provision of measured values as electric output
signals for the downstream device. Use the transmitter
for this purpose only.
•
The angular position transmitter is not intended to measure
rotation speed.
The device is intended for installation in industrial plants
•
and meets the requirements of EN 61010-1.
Device versions with explosion protection may only be
•
used in the planned purposes. The operation in other
explosive atmospheres is not permissible.
Manufacturer is not liable for any damage caused by
•
inappropriate handling, modifi cation or any application
not according to the intended purpose.
1.3 Commissioning
Installation, assembly, setup and commis-
•
sioning of the device has to be carried out
exclusively by skilled workers.
Observe manufacturer's operating instruc-
•
tions.
Check all electric connections prior to
•
commissioning the plant.
If assembly, electric connection or other
•
work on the device and the plant are not
carried out properly, this may result in mal-
functioning or breakdown of the device.
Safety measures should be taken to avoid
•
any danger to persons, any damage of the
plant and any damage of the equipment
due to breakdown or malfunctioning of
the device.
Do not operate the device outside of
•
the limit values stated in the operating
instructions.

3. Application
The KINAX HW730 converts the angular position of a shaft
into a load independent direct current signal, proportional to
the angular position. The unit is contact free. It technically
extends the delivery program of angular transmitters with a
programmable version and thus creates a number of new
technical application possibilities. The robust housing makes
this unit ideal for applications in rough environments.
Operating Instructions HW730 Be
Operation of device versions with explo-
•
sion protection is only permissible when...
- the details on the type label of the device
match the on-site conditions for the
permissible Ex area in use (group of
equipment, equipment category, zone,
temperature class or maximum surface
temperature)
- the details on the type label of the device
match the electrical supply network
- the device is undamaged and
- it has been checked that there is no
explosive atmosphere, oils, acids,
gases, vapors, radiation etc. present
during installation.
Repair work and modifi cations shall exclu-
sively be carried out by the manufacturer.
In case of any tampering with the device,
the guaranty claim shall lapse. We reserve
the right of changing the product to im-
prove it.
The disposal of devices and components
may only be realised in accordance with
good professional practice observing the
country-specifi c regulations.
Transport and store the devices exclusively
in their original packaging. Do not drop
devices or expose them to substantial
shocks.
