Pot magnet for a plunger coil arrangement, in particular a plunger coil arrangement of a scale operating on the principle of electromagnetic force compensation, (a) having a housing which comprises an interior having a floor surface and a circumferential surface extending perpendicularly thereto, and (b) having a permanent magnet unit arranged in the interior of the housing , which permanent magnet unit comprises a permanent magnet and a pole plate , (c) the permanent magnet unit being provided in the housing in such a way that an annular gap for receiving a plunger coil of the plunger coil arrangement (100; 200) is formed between a circumferential surface of the pole plate and the circumferential surface of the interior of the housing , (d) the permanent magnet , with its lower side facing the floor surface of the interior of the housing , being glued to the floor surface , an adhesive layer having a thickness d K being formed between the floor surface and the lower side of the permanent magnet , and (e) the pole plate being connected to the housing at a distance from the permanent magnet by means of a rigid fastening device and being positioned in such a way that a lower side of the pole plate faces an upper side of the permanent magnet and a gap having a predetermined gap width d L is formed between the lower side of the pole plate and the upper side of the permanent magnet , characterized in that (f) the fastening device comprises a carrier element (122; 202, 204) which passes through the permanent magnet , the passage taking place without contact or at least in such a way that, despite contact, an axial displacement movement between the permanent magnet and the carrier element (122; 202, 204) is made possible without substantial radial clamping forces being generated, which, for example, lead to a stick-slip effect in the case of a relative movement of the components in the direction of passage. (a) having a housing which comprises an interior having a floor surface and a circumferential surface extending perpendicularly thereto, and (b) having a permanent magnet unit arranged in the interior of the housing , which permanent magnet unit comprises a permanent magnet and a pole plate , (c) the permanent magnet unit being provided in the housing in such a way that an annular gap for receiving a plunger coil of the plunger coil arrangement (100; 200) is formed between a circumferential surface of the pole plate and the circumferential surface of the interior of the housing , (d) the permanent magnet , with its lower side facing the floor surface of the interior of the housing , being glued to the floor surface , an adhesive layer having a thickness d K being formed between the floor surface and the lower side of the permanent magnet , and (e) the pole plate being connected to the housing at a distance from the permanent magnet by means of a rigid fastening device and being positioned in such a way that a lower side of the pole plate faces an upper side of the permanent magnet and a gap having a predetermined gap width d L is formed between the lower side of the pole plate and the upper side of the permanent magnet , characterized in that (f) the fastening device comprises a carrier element (122; 202, 204) which passes through the permanent magnet , the passage taking place without contact or at least in such a way that, despite contact, an axial displacement movement between the permanent magnet and the carrier element (122; 202, 204) is made possible without substantial radial clamping forces being generated, which, for example, lead to a stick-slip effect in the case of a relative movement of the components in the direction of passage. <EOS>
