Clamp the vertical mill sensor onto the mill bearing housing, in the position where it will
be mounted.
If the PT 100 temperature sensor cable interferes with where the vertical mill bearing
sensor is to be mounted, mount the vertical mill sensor on the other side of the bearing
housing.
Route the hydraulic hose attached to the vertical mill sensor under the drive shaft where
possible, for better protection.
Ideally, the hydraulic hose cable should be routed from the sensor, under the driveshaft and
then run under the boardwalk to the relevant Junction Box (JB).
Make sure that the hydraulic hose cable is able to move more than 4” inches when it is
secured to the boardwalk or shredder. to allow for shredder movement.
The hydraulic hose cable lands directly into the relevant JB.
Ensure the cable is of sufficient length to be able to loop it into the JB. (The loop radius
is typically about 1ft – 1.5 ft).
It is suggested that 1ft be added to the overall cable length to accommodate any sharp bends
in the cable when it is mounted using stainless steel cable ties.
