Installation with Treon Magnetic Glue Adapter for Curved Surface
No drilling on curved or uneven surfaces. The magnet holds and orients the sensor while the glue cures. You need an area at least 33 mm (1.30 in) across.
Not for magnetic-field measurement
Do not use a magnetic adapter when you are measuring magnetic field. The magnet interferes with the readings. The magnets are there only as temporary support during installation.

What you need
- A Treon Industrial Node X.
- A Treon Magnetic Glue Adapter for Curved Surface.
- A slightly curved or uneven mounting surface at least 33 mm (1.30 in) in diameter.
- Industrial-grade glue or epoxy suitable for bonding metal, such as Loctite HY 4090.
- A 36 mm (1.42 in) spanner and a 34 mm (1.34 in) spanner.
- A torque wrench capable of 20 Nm.
- Cleaning materials: degreaser or isopropyl alcohol, lint-free wipes.
- Personal protective equipment as per site rules.
The magnet only holds the adapter while the glue cures. Final fixation depends entirely on the glue.
Step by step
1. Clean the surface
Clean the mounting surface on the asset thoroughly.
2. Attach the adapter to the node
Place the adapter on the Treon Industrial Node X and screw it on carefully.
Tighten this joint to approximately 20 Nm. Hold the node still with a 36 mm (1.42 in) spanner on the Node X base while you turn and tighten the adapter with a 34 mm (1.34 in) spanner.
3. Apply glue to the surface
Choose a suitable glue, such as Loctite HY 4090, and follow its own instructions closely. Apply it to the mounting area on the asset. That area must be at least 33 mm (1.30 in) in diameter.
4. Place the node on the asset
Place the node in the orientation you want, on the area where you applied the glue. Check the magnet is holding the node against the surface so the bond sets properly, then let the glue cure.
There is no adapter-to-asset joint to tighten with this method. The adapter is glued to the asset, not bolted or screwed into it.
Verify
- Confirm the axis alignment marks match the directions you intended.
- Run a quick measurement and check the directional sensitivity is what you expect.
The Treon Industrial Node X is now installed.
