System installation
Installing the OMP400 with an OMI-2T / OMI-2 / OMI-2H / OMI
The probe and OMI-2T / OMI-2H / OMI-2 / OMI diodes must be in the others field of view or line of
site, and within the performance envelope shown. The OMP400 performance envelope is based on the
receiver being at 0°, and vice-versa.
Natural reflective surfaces within the machine may change the signal transmission range.
Coolant residue accumulating on the OMP400 or receiver windows will have a detrimental effect on
transmission performance. Wipe clean as often as is necessary to maintain unrestricted transmission.
Operation in temperatures of 0 °C to 5 °C or 50 °C to 60 °C (32 °F to 41 °F or 122 °F to 140 °F) will
result in some reduction in range.
CAUTION: If two systems are operating in close proximity to each other, take care to ensure that
signals transmitted from the OMP400 on one machine are not received by the receiver on the other
machine, and vice versa. When this is the case, use of the probe’s low power mode or receiver's low
range setting.
