Installation and Mounting
i
Ensure careful handling during installation and operation.
Make sure that the sensors can move freely and that no sharp curves or corners are formed when
installing the colorCONTROL MFA-7/14/21/28.
> Damage to or destruction or failure of the sensor
> Distortion of test results
The smallest bending radius of the sensor (optical fiber) is 50 mm (permanent) or 10 mm (short-term).
i
Make sure that all the light from the LEDs is guided from the sensor to the color chip in the colorCONTROL MFA-XX.
