5.2 Recommended mounting arrangements
When several MLG-2s are mounted close to one another, there is a risk of mutual inter‐
fer
ence. This is particularly likely if there are shiny surfaces nearby or if the objects
being detected are shiny.
Therefore, when mounting two MLG-2s close to one another, their light beams should
be oriented in opposite directions.
5.2.1 Mounting with light in opposite directions
The 1/3 to 2/3 alignment must be observed when mounting with light beams in oppo‐
sit
e dir
ections.
NOTE
When t
wo MLG-2s are placed opposite one another and their light beams are in oppo‐
site directions, reflections may occur from sender 1 to receiver 2 in the case of shiny
objects.
5.2.2 Mounting with light in the same direction
When several MLG-2s are mounted with their light beams oriented in the same direc‐
tion, a minimum dis
tance must be maintained between the MLG-2s. The minimum dis‐
tance depends on the distance between sender and receiver.
