5.2. Mechanical installation
|
|
|
|
Be aware that a rigid and flat base, isolated against shock and vibration should be selected to mount the Safe200 or Safe400. This in combination with the standard mounting bracket set will keep the initial alignment during operation even in harsh industrial environments. For the installation height and safety distance, please refer back to the previous information given.
Likewise, be aware that the emitter and receiver connection cables must always be located on the same end of the protective field. If this is not the case, the protective field will have dangerous unpro-tected areas (Figure 13).

When using several optoelectronic safety devices e.g. Safe200 or Safe400 systems in the same application, the systems should be installed in a way such that they cannot interfere with each other. Care must be taken so that each receiver only receives light from its own emitter (Figure 12).

5.2.1. Mounting brackets
The backside of the light curtain profile has continu-ous grooves to fix the mounting brackets at any position along the light curtain housing (Figure 21)
Further brackets may be obtained as an option, to offer the possibility of mounting on the side or in the centre (Figure 14 and Figure 15).

The safety light curtain has been thoroughly tested against foreign light interferences according to the stringent requirements of IEC 61496. Nevertheless any direct interference into the receiver with other infrared sources like through beam photoelectric sensors, laser scanner, transmitters etc. or flashing warning lamps should be avoided.
