Mounting the sensor
Sensor alignment
Position sensor and screw to suitable holder e.g. Typ MS F 50* or MSP F 50* (not included in standard delivery) via
fixing holes.
*Part number, see list of accessories
INFORMATION
Observe the following operating conditions:
• The distance to the object must be within the sensor’s operating range (see technical data).
• The direction of movement of the object should be cross-wise to the sensor’s front screen
(illustr. 4+5).
• With strongly reflective or shiny surfaces, incline the sensor by approx. 5 ° in relation to the
surface of the object (illustr. 6).
CAUTION
In the case of strong vibrations (shocks / oscillations), the sensor must be given constructive
protection from damage
WARNING
• Never look into the path of the laser. Do not suppress the reflex to close the eyelids.
• Gazing into the beam path for longer periods can damage the retina of the eye.
• When mounting the sensor, ensure that the beam path is sealed off at the end.
• The laser must not be directed at people (head height).
• When aligning FT 50 RLA, ensure that there are no reflections on reflective surfaces.
• Should the safety label on the FT 50 RLA sensor be partly covered due to its installation posi
-
tion, other safety labels are to be positioned on visible parts of the sensor. When applying the
new safety label, make sure that you cannot look into the laser beam whilst reading it.
The FT 50 RLA sensor is now mounted.
