3 MECHANICAL ASSEMBLY


The transmitter (TX) and receiver (RX) must be assembled with their sensing surfaces facing
each other. The connectors must be positioned on the same side and the distance must be
within the operating limits of the relevant model (see Chapter 11).

The pair of light curtains must be aligned to the best possible extent and must be as parallel
as possible.
The devices will be precision aligned in accordance with the description in Chapter 5.
When positioning the pair of light curtains, please note that the length of the receiver is
increased by 56.9 mm if the PSEN op Advanced Programming Adapter is used and is built
into the light curtain.

The fastening kit supplied can be used as follows (Fig. 17).

To assemble the kit with the mounting brackets, place the bolts into the dedicated side guide
rail. Slide the insert along the groove of the metal profile. Attach the bracket by tightening the
M5 hexagonal nuts on the profile. It is possible to slide the bracket unit along the dedicated
rail and then reposition it by tightening the above-mentioned nuts.

On applications where there is particularly heavy vibration, we recommend that you use anti-
vibration rubbers with the mounting brackets to alleviate the effects of the vibration.
