Mounting
Protective field setup with adjacent safety sensors
The safety sensor has been developed in a way that prevents several safety sensors from interfering with
one another as much as possible. Nevertheless, if several safety sensors are positioned adjacent to each
other, this may result in a reduction in the availability of the safety sensors.
Ä When mounting the safety sensor, avoid glossy surfaces directly behind the optics cover.
Ä Plan for shielding with stationary applications.
The shielding must be at least as high as the safety sensor's optics cover and embedded with the front
housing edge.
If you plan for a shielding that is still within the countersinking in the machine contour, the resolution of
the protective fields must not be impaired at any accessible points.
You require the reciprocal shielding with both horizontal and vertical alignment of the protective fields.
