Mounting light curtain
NOTICE
No reflective surfaces, no mutual interference!
Avoid reflective surfaces near the light curtains. Objects may otherwise not be precisely
detected due to halation.
Ensure sufficient distance, suitable positioning or partitioning. Optical sensors (e.g. other light
curtains, photoelectric sensors, etc.) must not interfere with one another.
Avoid interference from outside light (e.g. from flash lamps, direct sunlight) on the receiver.
NOTICE
Must be observed!
For horizontally mounted measuring light curtains with lengths of more than 2000 mm, use an
additional mounting bracket in the middle of the light curtain.
The optical surfaces of transmitter and receiver must be parallel to and opposite one another.
The transmitter and receiver connections must point in the same direction.
Secure transmitter and receiver against turning or sliding.
Have suitable tools ready and mount the light curtain observing the instructions for the
mounting locations.
Mount the transmitter and receiver at the same height or with the same housing reference
edge, without distortion and flat.
Mount the transmitter and receiver using one of the following mounting methods.
1. Fastening via sliding blocks (See 5.2.3).
2. Fastening via clamp holder (See 5.2.4)
3. Note the exact alignment of transmitter and receiver according to the figures below.
