To achieve the best possible measurement result, please note:
•
Typical space requirement for the device installation: approximately 700 mm
above the tallest object (measured from measured value origin).
•
The device must have a clear view of the conveyor system.
•
The laser beams of the device should not reach beyond the application space, so
that people or goods, which are being transported on an adjacent conveyor sys‐
tem, are not detected (limiting detection by beam separation).
•
The maximum detection must be limited to a working range of three meters, as
measurement inaccuracies may otherwise result.
•
Ensure sufficient distance between the device and curves, induction lines, start/
stop areas, areas with upward and downward inclines, and breaks in the conveyor
system.
•
If two or more devices are mounted one behind the other offset in parallel and are
not synchronized, the orthogonal distance of the laser lines must be at least 7 cm.

Mounting the device
1.
Mount the device in a suitably prepared bracket using the fixing holes provided
and make provision for limiting detection by beam separation.
2.
Tighten the mounting screws to 6 Nm. If you are using coated screws, select a pre‐
tension of 5 Nm after screw contact.
3.
Make the electrical connection. Attach and tighten a voltage-free cable.
4.
Switch on the supply voltage.
✓
The status LED lights up after successful initialization. The device is ready for use.
