5 Mounting
5.1 Mounting instructions
•
Observe the technical data.
•
Protect the sensor from direct sunlight.
•
To prevent condensation, avoid exposing the device to rapid changes in tempera‐
ture.
•
The mounting site has to be designed for the weight of the device.
•
The device can be mounted in any position.
•
It should be mounted so that it is exposed to as little shock and vibration as possi‐
ble. Optional mounting accessories are available, see "Accessories", page 58.
•
Regularly check the tightness of the fixing screws.
•
Do not mount the device on or directly in front of a bright metallic surface or other
reflective surface, since reflections can falsify the measurements.
•
Avoid having shiny or reflective surfaces in the scanning range, e.g., stainless
steel, aluminum, glass, reflectors, or surfaces with these types of coatings.
•
Protect the device from moisture, contamination, and damage.
•
Make sure that the status indicator is clearly visible.
•
Do not affix any labels or stickers to the optics cover.
•
Do not subject the device to excessive shock or vibrations. In systems subjected to
heavy vibrations, secure the fixing screws with screw-locking devices.
5.2 Mounting the system plug on the device
Notes
•
Depending on the device variant ordered, the system plug is either already
mounted on the device or is supplied separately.
•
Compliance with the technical specifications of the device is possible only when
the system plug is mounted.
Prerequisites
•
The system plug, the seal on the device, and the entire connection area are free of
contamination and moisture and show no signs of damage.
