3 .2 General installations notes
The requirements of the standard EN ISO 14119 must be taken into account during installation.
Precautions during installation
Observe the following instructions to prevent injuries or damages to the device.
The mounting holes allow mounting using M6 Torx pan-head screws with countersunk pin
(safety screws) (max. tightening torque 6 Nm).
Screws made of non-ferromagnetic material (e.g. brass) must be used. The mounting
position is arbitrary. However, the safety sensor and actuator must be mounted in parallel
opposite each other.
Heat note
Should the temperature be over 60 °C, due to enviromental conditions or
self-heating, an included label with „warning hot surface“ has to be affixed.
The safety sensor may only be installed in the secured switching distances. The safety sensor
and the actuator must be installed to the protective device by suitable measures (use of
one-way screws, gluing, drilling of screw heads, pinning) and secured against displacement.
In order to avoid system-related influence and reduction of the switching distances, please
observe the following instructions:
• Metal parts near the sensor can change the switching distance
• Keep metal chips away
• Minimum distance between two process guards: 150 mm
Influence
Be aware that magnetic fields can delete data carriers and impact or destroy
electronic or mechanic components, such as cardiac pacemakers. We are un-
aware of any negative influences for humans that originate from the magnetic
fields of permanent magnets.
During direct contact to magnetic materials and systems, allergic reactions
can arise (e.g. against ceramic and metallic materials as well as zinc, nickel
and plastics).
The process guard locking with safety function may only be mounted on flat surfaces.
• The connecting cable of the safety sensor must be installed in such a way that it is
protected against mechanical damage.
• During installation, also take into account the requirements of EN 60204-1, especially
with regard to suitable installation. It is recommended to install the sensor connecting
cable concealed.

3 .4 Adjustment
The specified switching distances, see Section 2.9 Technical data, only apply for installation
on non-metallic material if the safety sensor and actuator are mounted parallel to each
other. Other arrangements may lead to different switching distances.
