NOTE
Dimensional drawings for SICK brackets and, if applicable, mounting instructions can
be found online at:

To do so, enter the 7-digit part number of the bracket in the search field.
User-supplied brackets
A user-supplied bracket should meet the following requirements:
■
Stable mounting device
–
Allow the device to be aligned in the x and y axes.
–
The mounting device must be able to bear the weight of the device, including
connecting cables, in a shock-proof manner,
–
In mounting situations with strong vibrations, it may be necessary to provide
shock mounts.
■
For mounting the device according to the dimensional drawing:
°
RFH505 and RFH510: 2 suitable drill holes for M18 or M30 male thread
°
RFH515: 2 suitable drill holes or M5 threaded holes for the supplied clamp‐
ing bracket
5.3
Mounting location
When selecting the mounting location, the following factors are significant:
•
Spatial working range of the antenna
•
Distance of the device to the object with transponder
•
Possible influence of the environment on the device HF field produced, for exam‐
ple:
°
Metal surfaces located to the side of and in the vicinity of the device
°
Electrically conductive objects between the antenna and transponder
°
Read/write devices located close together
5.4
Mounting the device
WARNING
Risk of injury due to damage to the device
For reasons of safety, if a device shows visible signs of damage do not put it into
operation, or take it out of operation immediately.
Damage includes, for example, depending on type:
•
Housing: cracking, splitting or fracture
•
Electrical connections (male connector or female connector): cracks or detach‐
ment from the housing
•
Device with fixed cable: Damage to the cable outlet or cable itself
Installation of devices in metal environments
NOTE
For interference-free operation of devices in metal environments, mount the devices so
that the HF active heads of the devices protrude out of the metal wall. Flush installation
of the device in metal drastically reduces the working range of the antenna.
