Fig. 62: Requirements for mounting the LMS4x21
▸
The 2D LiDAR sensor is mounted in a centered position above the conveying
equipment in such a way that it cannot shake or vibrate.
NOTE! Use the supplied mounting material. See also chapter 4.1 Mounting the
2D LiDAR sensor.
• The smallest permissible distance of the measuring object from the zero point of the
LMS4x21 is typically 900 mm. The zero point is marked on both the upper and lower
side of the housing of the LMS4x21.
▸
Observe the minimum distance of the LMS4x21 to the measuring object. The space
required to install the 2D LiDAR sensor is approximately 900 mm above the tallest
object.
▸
Maximum detection must be limited to a working sensing range of three meters.
Otherwise, it may not be possible to attain the specified scale interval value.
▸
Make sure that the LMS4x21 has a clear view of the conveying equipment.
• Ensure sufficient distance of the LMS4x21 from curves, induction lines, start/stop
areas, areas with upward and downward inclines, and breaks in the conveyor system.
• LFT measurements over the belt gap are not permitted.
