6.4.3 MLC-PS protective screen
If there is a risk that the protective plastic screens of the safety sensors could get damaged, e.g. by welding
sparks, placing the additional, easy-to-replace MLC-PS protective screen in front of the safety sensors can
protect the device protective screen and considerably increase the availability of the safety sensor.
Mounting is performed using special clamp brackets, which are fastened on the lateral slot, via an Allen
screw accessible from the front on each. The range of the safety sensor is reduced by approx. 5%; when
protective screens are used on the transmitter and the receiver it is reduced by 10%. Mounting bracket
sets with 2 and 3 clamp brackets are available.
If the length equals 1200 mm or higher, 3 clamp brackets are recommended.
