However, the FF-SB14, FF-SB15 and FF-SB30 low voltage light curtains are polarity
independent.
The wire gauge of the ground connection should be equal to the power supply wire gauge.
The length of the ground connection wire should be as short as possible. To minimize noise
interference, the ground terminal of the light curtain must be connected to the main ground of
the machine.
