Mounting the Side-Mount Brackets
Figure 13. Side-Mount Brackets
Figure 14. 360° Rotation
Note:
•
Two or more side-mount brackets are supplied with each
emitter and receiver. Emitters and Receivers 830 mm and
longer also include an additional side-mount bracket for
center support; sensors 1390 mm and longer include an
additional two side-mount brackets.
• The sensors are designed to be mounted with up to 690
mm of unsupported distance between brackets.
1. From a common point of reference (ensuring the calculated minimum safety distance), measure to locate the emitter
and receiver in the same plane, with their midpoints directly opposite each other.
Important: The connector ends of both sensors must point in the same direction (see
Emitter and
Receiver Orientation
(p. 26)).
2. Mount the emitter and receiver mounting brackets to the desired surface, using the supplied M5 bolts and nuts or
user-supplied hardware.
3. Attach the 2-piece clamp to the sensor housing side channels (either side of the housing) at the appropriate
locations, using the supplied M3x6 screws.
4. Attach the clamp to the bracket, using the supplied M5 screws.
5. Position the emitter and receiver windows directly facing each other. Measure from a reference plane, for example, a
level building floor, to the same point(s) on the emitter and receiver to verify their mechanical alignment. Use a
carpenter’s level, a plumb bob, or the optional LAT-1 Laser Alignment Tool (see
Alignment Aids
(p. 94)) or check
the diagonal distances between the sensors, to achieve mechanical alignment. Final alignment procedures are
explained in
Initial Checkout Procedure
(p. 34).
6. Tighten all fasteners.
Bracket Assembly Instructions
An M2 or #1 Phillips screwdriver is needed for access to the DIP switches and for preassembly of the mounting brackets.
Final assembly (tightening) of the mounting bracket should be accomplished with a #1 Phillips screwdriver or 3/16 in. / 5
mm “thin-walled” nut driver to achieve the listed torque specifications. Sensors may be mounted with side-mount brackets,
end-mount brackets, or a combination of both.
