The sliding nuts can each be inserted into a slot on the side of the housing.
SICK offers prefabricated brackets which are optimally suited for mounting the device
in a wide range of applications (www.sick.com).
NOTE
In some instances, reflections can occur if the sensor is mounted perfectly perpendicu‐
lar to the work plane. If a large white spot is seen in the sensor image, try to re-align the
sensor to be 1 to 2 degrees off the perpendicular axis.
User-supplied brackets
A user-supplied bracket must meet the following requirements:
•
Alignment of the device in the x and y axes can be adjusted
•
The mounting device must be able to bear the weight of the device and connecting
cables free of vibrations
•
In mounting situations with strong vibrations, shock mounts may need to be
provided
•
Mounting options must be available for the 4 threaded mounting holes or the two
sliding nuts
5.4 Mount the optics
NOTE
This mounting step is only required if the optional optics accessory has been included
in the order for PLOC2D Flex. This does not apply for the Dynamic Focus type.
5.4.1 Mounting the lens and illumination unit
NOTICE
Possible impairment of image quality!
Dust and fingerprints on optical boundary surfaces can reduce image quality and may
also affect the decoding performance of the device.
►
When mounting the optics accessories, always ensure that the environment is free
of dust.
►
Do not touch the image sensor (CMOS) in the light inlet opening of the sensor or
the glass lenses at either end of the lens unit.
NOTE
When mounting the optics accessories on the camera housing, always ensure that
there is no power to the system.
Mount the optics
1. Place the camera housing on a nonslip base.
2. Remove the protective cap from the round light inlet.
3. If necessary, carefully insert the filter (optional) and spacer disk into the light inlet.
4. Screw the lens unit into the C-mount thread. This will also lock the optional filter in
place at the same time (if applicable).
