TPS

4. Main functions

Adjusting the trigger level and gap between different
sensors is highly important. Following these simple
guidelines will enable perfect detection with the TPS family.
With separately adjustable trigger levels on each beam,
the TPS can be used for different detection heights. The
operation range is between 0.1 m to 2 m from the device.
The trigger level can be adjusted manually from 0.3 m up
to 2 m in order to determine the preferred detection range.

Example for trigger adjustment:
The TPS device is mounted at the top to detect objects from
above. To detect the higher object, the trigger level has to
be set between the height of two objects.

5. Installation

 Be sure to turn off power supply when carrying out
electrical work.
 Clearly mark that this device is out of service.
There are one flush and two surface mounting solutions.
Distances from wall, doors and/or other obstacles must
be considered. The application of multiple (adjacent) TPS
sensors requires a minimum gap between the devices.
This gap is needed to avoid any interference between
neighboring sensors.
IMPORTANT
 Every device needs to be separately connected to
the corresponding control device. For electrical
connection, see Figure 10.

Objects in the range from the
trigger level up to the minimal
operating range are detected
by the TPS.
Objects in the range from the
trigger level down to ground
are not detected by the TPS.
