Mounting the muting arms
Overview
Before mounting and electrical installation, the muting arms must be mounted on the
active unit and the passive unit.
The muting arms are pre-mounted, i.e. they are fastened to the muting arm bracket.
Two muting sensors for the active unit or 2 reflectors for the passive unit have been
attached and aligned on each pre-mounted muting arm.
The additional step of aligning the muting sensors is only necessary in the following
cases:
•
The muting arms of the active and passive units will be mounted at different
heights.
•
A muting arm needs to be replaced.
The procedure describes the recommended mounting position of the muting arms at
the height of the lowest light beam of the ESPE.
Approach
1.
Unpack the pre-mounted muting arms.
2.
Remove the protective caps on the muting signal A and muting signal B connec‐
tions of the active unit.
3.
Position the muting arm brackets with attached muting arms at the back of the
respective housings of the active and passive units. The SICK logo on the bracket
must face up.
§
4.
To mount the muting sensors or reflectors at the height of the lowest light beam,
use the guide line drawn on the left side of the device as an orientation aid.
