DC Step code and later
It is recommended using non-conductive material for the rockers to ensure best
transmission range. Avoid if possible metallic materials or plastics with conducting
ingredients such as graphite.
If the rocker is not mounted on the rotation axis of PTM 21x several tolerances
have to be considered! The measure from support plane to top of the energy bow
is 7.70 mm +/- 0.3 mm!
The movement of the energy bow must not be limited by mounted rockers!
Catwalks of the switch rocker must not exert continuous forces on contact nipples!
6.4 Device Mounting
For mounting the PTM 21x device into an application specific case, the package outline draw-
ings of the device are given in chapter 1.5. More detailed 3D construction data is available
from EnOcean in IGS format as described in the previous chapter.
It is recommended not to mount the device directly onto metal surfaces or into
metal frames since this can lead to significant loss of transmission range.
PTM is powered by the electromagnetic generator ECO 200. For proper function magnets or
ferromagnetic materials are not permitted within a keep-out zone of 60mm around the centre
of the PTM.
