SICK V2D621P-2MDFGB5 User Manual

On widely distributed system installations with correspondingly large potential differ‐
ences, the setting up of local islands and connecting them using commercially available
electro-optical signal isolators is recommended. This measure achieves a high degree
of resistance to electromagnetic interference.

The use of electro-optical signal isolators between the islands isolates the ground loop.
Within the islands, a stable equipotential bonding prevents equalizing currents on the
cable shields.
Measures for small system installations
For smaller installations with only slight potential differences, insulated mounting of the
device and peripheral devices may be an adequate solution.
