3.2 Mounting System Components
3.2.1 Overview of Emitter/Receiver Mounting Hardware
Mounting Hardware
The EZ-SCREEN standard end-cap mounting bracket
hardware is supplied with each emitter and receiver.
Brackets are designed to mount directly to MSA Series
stands using the hardware with the supplied stands.

Using Center Mounting Brackets
Center mounting brackets are supplied with longer sensors
and must be used whenever the sensors are subject to
shock or vibration. The sensors are designed to be mounted
with up to 450 mm (18 in) distance between brackets:
•
Sensors 600 to 900 mm (24 in to 36 in) long are
supplied with one center bracket, which should be
centered on the sensor.
•
Sensors 1050 to 1350 mm (42 in to 54 in) long are
supplied with two center brackets, which should be
positioned 1/3 of the sensor's length from each
sensor end.
•
Sensors 1500 to 1800 mm (59 in to 71 in) long are
supplied with three center brackets
To install each bracket:
1. Spread the clamp and snap over the back of the
sensor so that the clamp is securely fastened to the
sensor without blocking any beams.
2. Compress the foam spacer and slide the clamp
along the length of the sensor housing to align the
clamp with the center mounting bracket as shown in
Figure 11
on page 20. Three separate mounting
holes are provided on the clamp to allow for all
possible mounting configurations.
3. Connect the clamp to the center bracket using the
M3 screw supplied.
4. Loosen all the mounting screws to the sensor, align
the sensors and then tighten the end screws.
Finally, tighten the M3 screw joining the clamp to
the center mounting bracket.
