Mounting instructions
•
Observe the technical data.
•
Protect the sensor from direct sunlight.
•
To prevent condensation, avoid exposing the device to rapid changes in tempera‐
ture.
•
The mounting site has to be designed for the weight of the device.

Mounting requirements
DANGER
Risk of injury due to hot device surface.
The surface of the device can become hot during operation.
•
Before performing work on the device (e.g. mounting, cleaning, disassembly),
switch off the device and allow it to cool down.
•
Ensure good lost heat transfer from the device.
NOTICE
Radio interference may occur when the device is used in residential areas!
Only use the device in industrial environments (EN 61000-6-4).
■
Typical space requirement:
.
■
Ensure that there is good heat transfer from the device, in particular at high ambi‐
ent temperatures (e.g., via the bracket to the mounting base or ensure that the
back of the device is a sufficient distance from the wall of a housing).
■
Only to be mounted using the threaded mounting holes provided for this purpose
or the sliding nuts.
■
The substrate over which the AGV moves must be level.
■
Clear view of the code.
Equipment required
■
Mounting device (bracket) with sufficient load-bearing capacity and suitable
dimensions.
■
Two or four M5 screws for mounting on a mounting device supplied by the cus‐
tomer. The screw length depends on the mounting base (wall thickness of the
bracket). When using an optional SICK bracket, the screws for mounting are
included with delivery.
■
Tool and tape measure.
5.2.2
Mounting the device
The device is mounted using threaded mounting holes (m5) or sliding nuts.
The threaded mounting holes are located on the front and underside of the device.
The sliding nuts can each be inserted into a slot on the side of the housing.
SICK offers prefabricated brackets which are optimally suited for mounting the device
(e.g. mounting angle, part number: 2042902,
).
Customer-supplied brackets
A customer-supplied bracket must meet the following requirements:
