4.3 Mounting the contact profile onto the mounting profile
4.4 Mounting end caps
Fit the first side of the
contact profile flush at both
ends of the mounting profile
and apply uniform pressure
to press it into the mounting
profile, working from the
ends towards the centre.
For vertically mounted sensors: On the
lower end cap, remove the nubs for the
water outlet.
The rubber retainers must engage fully in the mounting
profile.
Tip:
Use a tool to help you to push the retainers in. Use
the curved edge to roll over the retainers, applying slight
pressure.
Push on the profile hard from the front to check
that it has been pressed in correctly. The contact
profile must not come away from the
mounting profile at any point.
Turn out the end cap at the top
Tip:
In case of limited accessibility, one side of the contact profile can be fitted into the mounting profile prior to fixing the mounting profile.
This can be helpful for example at folding or swing gates, when sensors are mounted near the ground.
Always work from both ends
towards the centre when
pushing in the profile.
This prevents unwanted
elongation of the rubber
profiles.
When using sensing profiles with a lip:
Remove the pre-stamped recesses for the lip
on both end caps (paying attention
to left/right).
