Q3X Laser Contrast Sensor
Laser Description and Safety Information
Installation
Install the Safety Label
The safety label must be installed on Q3X sensors that are used in the
United States.
NOTE: Position the label on the cable in a location that
has minimal chemical exposure.
1. Remove the protective cover from the adhesive on the label.
2. Wrap the label around the Q3X cable, as shown.
3. Press the two halves of the label together.
Sensor Orientation
Correct sensor-to-target orientation is important to ensure proper
sensing. To ensure reliable detection, orient the sensor as shown
in relation to the target to be detected.
For models with background suppression, make sure the intended
target is inside of the contrast sensing range and that any
background objects are positioned beyond the background
suppression distance.
