INSTALLATION TIPS
• The sensor should be mounted securely to avoid extreme vibrations.
• The sensor should be mounted above the door on the swing side.
• The sensor should be mounted flush with bottom of door header.
• Do not cover the sensor.
• Avoid moving objects and light sources in the detection field.
SINGLE-DOOR APPLICATIONS:
Sensor must be mounted at center of door opening.
If this is not possible, the unit may be installed off-center. Pattern
location must be altered for proper detection field placement (see
PATTERNS section). Avoid potentially problematic mounting locations
(e.g. directly over a door arm).
Per ANSI 156.10:
When the Bodyguard-T is prevented from providing a safety signal to the control during the closing
cycle, an additional sensor, sensors, or photo beam shall be used on the swing side to stop the door,
or continue to close the door, or slow the reopening. For new installations of power operated door
systems all presence sensors used for safety shall be monitored whereas existing installations using
presence sensors for safety may be monitored, and monitoring is not mandatory.
DUAL-EGRESS APPLICATIONS:
One sensor should be mounted over each swing path, with at least 40"
of separation between the two (measured from midpoint of each sensor).
SIMULTANEOUS PAIR APPLICATIONS:
Sensor must be mounted at center of door opening.
• The door control unit and the header cover profile must be correctly grounded.
• Only trained and qualified personnel are recommended for installation and set-up of the sensor.
• Following installation, always test for proper operation (according to ANSI 156.10) before leaving
the premises.
• The warranty is invalid if unauthorized repairs are made or attempted by unauthorized personnel.
