Model MSSxx is a replaceable protective cover for the lens of a MINI-SCREEN or

MINI-ARRAY sensor lens. The shield is made of 1.5 mm ( 0.6”) clear polycarbonate.

Shield models are available for every length of sensor from 4-inches to 48-inches

(see chart, below). The shields attach to the sensor using two adhesive-backed Neoprene

foam strips.

Application Note: When shields are installed on both the emitter and receiver, excess

gain is reduced by 36 percent (and maximum operating range is reduced by 20 percent)

MS Shield Features

Remove all dust, dirt, and oil from the metal surfaces on all four sides of the MINI-

SCREEN sensor lens using a mild detergent or window cleaner and a soft cloth.

Also clean the MINI-SCREEN lens and the lens shield, if needed. NOTE: Avoid

cleaning agents containing alcohol, as they will damage the acrylic lens. If in doubt

about the composition of a cleaning agent, test a small area of the acrylic sensor

lens below the active lens area (i.e. - at the bottom of the sensor, just above the

cable connector) by applying the cleaning agent and allowing it to evaporate.

The foam gasket is pre-attached to the lens shield. Peel the paper backing from the

foam gasket. Press one end of the lens shield to the bottom end of the sensor, just

above the status indicators, and continue by applying pressure and moving slowly to

the top end. The width of the lens shield is very close to the width of the sensor, so

it is easy to keep centered during mounting.
