Installation and mounting

5.2 Steps for mounting the device

pecial features to note during mounting:

 Always mount the sender and receiver parallel to one another.

 During mounting, make sure that sender and receiver are aligned correctly. The optical

lens systems of sender and receiver must be located in exact opposition to each other;

the display elements must be mounted at the same height. The system plugs of both

devices must point in the same direction.

 Take suitable measures to attenuate vibration if the shock requirements are above the

values given in chapter 11.1 “Data sheet” on page 77.

 Observe the minimum distance of the system during mounting. On this topic read the

chapter “Determining the minimum distance” on page 40.

 Connect a maximum of three systems into a cascaded system.

 Always connect sender-sender and receiver-receiver within a system configuration.

 Mount the safety light curtain such that the hazardous point cannot be reached from

below, above or behind the safety light curtain and that the light curtain cannot be

repositioned.

 Once the system is mounted, one or several of the enclosed self-adhesive safety infor-

mation labels must be affixed.

– Use only labels in the language which the operators of the machine understand.

– Affix the information labels such that they are easily visible by the operators during

operation. After attaching additional objects and equipment, the information labels

must not be concealed from view.

– Affix the information label “Important Notices” to the system in close proximity to

sender and receiver.

– Operation with floating blanking: Affix the information label for floating blanking to

each sender or receiver so configured. Mark the effective resolution on the

information label.

– For operation with reduced resolution: Affix the information label for reduced resolu-

tion to each sender or receiver so configured. Mark the effective resolution on the in-

formation label.
