Installation and mounting
How to determine the minimum distance from reflective surfaces:
 Determine the distance D [m] sender–receiver.
 The minimum distance to the reflective surface a [mm] is shown in the diagram below
or may be calculated using the formula shown in Tab. 17.
Distance D [m]
sender–receiver
Calculation of the minimum distance a from reflective
surfaces
D  3 m a [mm] = 131
D > 3 m a [mm] = tan(2.5°) × 1000 × D [m] = 43.66 × D [m]

)
5.2 Steps for mounting the device
Special features to note during mounting:
 Always mount the sender and receiver parallel to one another.
 During mounting, ensure that sender and receiver are aligned correctly. The optical lens
systems of sender and receiver must be located in exact opposition to each other; the
status indicators must be mounted at the same height. The system connections of both
devices must point in the same direction.

The maximum value used for D is 6 m for low scanning range and 19 m for high scanning range.
