6.2.2.2 Snap-in style channel
Most of the time, snap-in channels may also be slid in as well. The snap-in technology facilitates the ease of
mounting the sensor to the channel without additional room needed on each end of the channel. Before
attempting to snap the housing and actuator into the channel, apply lubricant (mild soapy water) to
housing/channel and press housing back into channel. (See Figure 11 below).
Snap In mounting - Figure 11
When mounting the assembly in place, tuck any interconnecting wires from the sensor into the edge’s cavity.
Insert (optional) dowel pin in each end of the sensing edge to prevent sliding. See below:
