Therefore it was designed to be used in a great number of different configurations. The KIT-009 clamping kit was designed for evaluation purposes and for wide range of customers and end applications. It is imperative to use some form of threadlocker or the boundary conditions at the clamp or tip mass can change with time which will result in a change of performance over time. This threadlocker is reusable for testing and evaluation but for long term testing Midé suggests a more permanent threadlocker solution. Vibration can often loosen bolts over time which is why threadlocker is included with each kit. Most applications that require these piezo products will have heavy vibration either from the piezos or environmental vibration that the piezos are sensing/harvesting from. Over tightening the bolts could damage the piezo, we recommend a 1 N-m torque with a non-marred hard plastic or metal clamp. If a torque wrench is not available be sure to just use the provided hex key T handle and hand tighten to ensure the bolts are not over tightened and damage the piezo. The recommended torque that should be used is 1 N-m (8.85 in-lb). These recessed areas keep the nuts captive so that the bolts can be screwed down. Two 12mm M3 bolts can then be screwed down after nuts are placed in the bottom nut recesses. The second clamp bar is then placed on top, using the side alignment pins. Then place the piezo beam on top of the clamp bar, using the alignment pins at the back of the clamp base.
Select the desirable clamp location and align one clamp bar with the side alignment pins at the desired location. Clamping instructions provided in this article are assuming you have purchased the either of our clamping kits ( KIT-008, or KIT-009) In this ArticleĬlamping the products is made easy with the PPA-5001 clamp base and PPA-5002 clamp bars.
