MECHANICAL MOUNTING
The emitting (TX) and receiving (RX) units must be installed with the relevant sensitive
surfaces facing each other.
The connectors must be positioned on the same side and the distance must be included
withi
n the operating range of the model used (see "
Technical Data" on page 83).
The two units must be positioned the most aligned and parallel possible.
The next step is the fine alignment, as shown in "
Alignment Procedure" on page 29.
Outfit angled fixing brackets kit for units mounting must be used as described below
(see Figure 1).
Adjustable supports for adjusting unit inclina
tions around the axes are available on
request (see "
Accessories" on page 92).
To mount the angled fixing brackets kit, place the threaded pins metallic insert into the
dedi
cated side seat of the terminator cap side light curtain closing cap; slide the insert
towards the metallic drawn profile groove.
Fix the bracket against the profile by tightening the M5 hexagonal nuts. It's possible to
slide the br
acket group along their dedicated rail and fix it once again just working on
the above-mentioned nuts.
Figure 1 - Fixed brackets mounting procedure
In case of applications with particularly strong vibrations, vibration dampers, together
with mounting brackets, are recommended to reduce the impact of the vibrations.
