Mounting The Bar Code Tape - Leuze electronic BPS 34 Operating Instructions Manual

Mounting
Note!
The best functionality is obtained when:
• the BPS is guided parallel to the tape.
• the permitted working range is not exited.
Mounting location
 When choosing the mounting location, observe the following:
• maintaining the required environmental conditions (humidity, temperature),
• possible soiling of the reading window due to liquids, abrasion by boxes, or packaging
material residues.
Mounting outdoors/devices with integrated heating
When mounting outdoors or for devices with integrated heating, also observe the following
points:
• mount the BPS 34 in a way which provides maximum thermal isolation, e.g. using
rubber-bonded metal.
• mount in such a way that the device is protected from relative wind; mount additional
shields if necessary.
Note!
When installing the BPS 34 in a protective housing, it must be ensured that the scanning
beam can exit the protective housing without obstruction.
