Minimum distance to reflective surfaces
Failure to maintain minimum distances to reflective surfaces may result
in serious injury!
Distance to reflective surfaces
The optical properties of the plastic tube can increase the required
minimum distance (figure 2/3 typical increase in the minimum dis-
tance to reflective surfaces) to reflective surfaces when using MLC
safety light curtains. Soiling or scratches can also increase the open-
ing angle. Therefore, be sure to clean regularly and gently.
Do not wear any reflective protective clothing
Machine operators must not wear any reflective protective clothing,
since the light beams of the transmitter could be deflected by these
reflective surfaces. This can result in an object not being detected.

Mounting
Mount the IP protective tube on the end caps.
To do this, use the mounting brackets included in the scope of delivery.
Tightening torque of the mounting screws: 3 Nm
Mount the transmitter or the receiver with the IP protective tube to the system
using the mounting brackets.
Electrically connect the transmitter or the receiver via the connection cable of the
IP protective tube.
Align the transmitter and receiver with one another – see chapter
