SWIFT 50 GLP Sensors Installation Installing the Transducer 61
Attaching SWIFT Components to the Fixturing
Note Install the transducer in so that the orientation labeling is consistent with
the reference orientation. In most cases, this means installing it so the
labels are upright. If an additional angle correction is required after
installation, you will need to measure the angle from zero, and then enter
a new offset value for the AngleOffset in the TI calibration file (see
, “Edit
the Calibration File,” in the SWIFT 50 GLP Sensor Product Information
manual (MTS part number 100-162-722).
SWIFT 50 GLP Fasteners
Material required:
• Molykote g-n paste (MTS part number 011-010-217).
• Nikal based anti-galling compound (MTS part number 011-354-902)
1. Clean all surfaces with a mild detergent such as dish soap. It is critical that
all surfaces be free of stones, burrs, and grease.
2. Attach the spindle adapter spacer to the rim side of the transducer (see the
next figure) using the four M5 fasteners provided (see the previous table).
Ensure the pilot surface of the spindle adapter spacer is facing the
transducer.
Lubricate the threads and under the head of each fastener with Molykote g-n
paste and torque to 6.5 N•m (4.8 lbf-ft).
Front Rim Dual Rims
M16 X 1.5 mm *
* The length of these fasteners is dependant on the thickness of the rim
flange. The fastener length must ensure a minimum thread
engagement of 37 mm (1.46 in) but must not exceed 43 mm (1.69 in).
M16 X 1.5 mm*
M10 X 1.5 mm †
† The length of these fasteners is dependant on the thickness of the rim
flange. The fastener length must ensure a minimum thread
engagement of 28 mm (1.10 in) but must not exceed 34 mm (1.33 in).
M10 X 1.5 mm †
M5 X 0.8 mm ‡
‡ These fasteners secure the spindle adapter spacer to the transducer.
The length of these fasteners is dependant on the thickness of the
spindle adapter spacer which is a function of the customer wheel
geometry.
M5 X 0.8 mm ‡
MTS modified lug nuts and shim washers §
§ The standard lug nuts provided have a thread size of M22 X 1.50 mm.
Other thread sizes can be ordered at customer request.
