Abstract
A mounting unit for a sensor system includes a sensor wheel adapted to be mounted on a shaft, a sensor device adapted to be disposed on a sealing flange which seals the shaft, and a removable calibration aid fixing the sensor device in a precalibrated position on the sensor wheel. A process for mounting a sensor system involves aligning a sensor wheel and a sensor device in an aligned position relative to one another in a precalibration process, bringing together the sensor wheel and the sensor device in the aligned position with a calibration aid to form a mounting unit, positioning the mounting unit in a precise position on a shaft, fastening the sensor device to a sealing flange, and removing the calibration aid from the sensor wheel and the sensor device. The sealing flange can also be added to form a part of the mounting unit.
