Mounting the Sensor
The operating distance differs depending on the sensor. The correct operating distance can be
found in the datasheet for the sensor to be installed.
The following two figures show the orientation of the sensor under extraneous light:

Note
Mounting an optical device
•
Do not aim the sensor at the sun.
•
Protect the sensor from direct long-term exposure to sun.
•
Prevent condensation from forming by not exposing the sensor to any major fluctuations
in temperature.
•
Do not expose the sensor to the effects of any aggressive chemicals.
•
Keep the lenses and reflector of the device clean. Clean with a soft cloth, using standard
commercial glass cleaner if necessary.
We recommend to clean the optical surface and to check screw fittings and electrical
connections at regular intervals.
