High-Performance Distance Sensor
5. Installation Instructions
All applicable electrical and mechanical regulations, standards and safety precautions must be adhered to
when installing and operating the Sensor. The Sensor must be protected against mechanical influences. Install
the device such that its installation position cannot be inadvertently changed. The wenglor mounting system is
recommended for installing the Sensor. In order to obtain best possible results, the device’s optics should be
aligned at a right angle to the direction in which the objects are conveyed.
At brilliant surfaces, mount the Sensor in an angle of 5° to avoid
a direct reflexion beam into the lens.
