  • Page 34: Selecting Reflector Sizes

    Attention! The reflector sizes shown below are a recommendation from Leuze electronic for on-vehicle mounting of the AMS 301i. For stationary mounting of the AMS 301i, a smaller reflector is generally sufficient for all measurement distances. On the basis of the system planning and design, always check whether mechanical travel tolerances may require the use of a reflector larger than that which is recommended.

    For this purpose, use the alignment elements provided on the AMS 301i… (see chapter 5.2 "Mounting the AMS 301i"). If necessary, remove the protective foil from the reflector.
