Mounting the Control
DANGER
!
CONTROL AFFECTS LIGHT CURTAIN OPERATION
Install the light curtain control in a location where access to it will not affect the operation of
the light curtain.
Failure to comply with these instructions will result in death or serious injury.
DANGER !
CONTROL INSIDE THE GUARDED AREA FOR PERIMETER GUARDING
Install the light curtain control outside the guarded area for perimeter guarding applications.
Failure to comply with these instructions will result in death or serious injury.
1. Determine an appropriate location to mount the control. It should be mounted in an area
where personnel can easily see the warning indicators and also have access to the
circuitry, without interfering with the operation of the light curtains. The control must
never be installed inside the protected area in perimeter guarding applications. The
enclosure can be mounted to the press, on a free-standing pedestal, on a pendant, or at the
entrance of a location used for area guarding.
2. Drill four holes for mounting, and tap, if necessary. Shock mount studs are 1/4-20.
Mount the enclosure using the enclosed shock mounts and mounting flanges. Use a No.
7 drill and 1/4-20 tap. Refer to Figure 2-13 for mounting dimensions.
Connecting RF (Radio Frequency) Ground
To reduce electromagnetic interference, connect the RF ground terminal on the top of the
control enclosure (Figure 2-13) to a clean ground using a low-impedance ground strap. If
your installation does not experience electromagnetic interference, you may not need to use
this additional grounding.
NOTICE
A clean ground is a connection to the earth separate from the electrical service (green wire)
ground.
A low-impedance ground strap is made from braid at least 1/2” (1.25 cm) wide.
