Mounting Adapters
The sensor is attached either to a tripod, a robot or a portal.
For mounting the sensor on a tripod or a robot, corresponding mounting adapters (matt
black anodized) are provided as separate accessories
5.1.2.1 General
The sensors are optical sensors that operate in the µm range.
i
Pay attention to careful handling during mounting and operation.
The mounting adapters are always fastened to the sensor base with a total of 6 M6
screws. A metal pin on the underside of the sensor is used for unambiguous orientation
of the adapter.
Mount the sensor to the mounting adapter ensuring full contact over the entire sur-
face.
The sensor and mounting adapter must not be tilted to one another. All screws must
be tightened. An improperly mounted adapter can cause the accurately reproducible
positioning of the sensor to be impaired and the sensor, adapter and tripod connecting
elements to be unevenly mechanically stressed.
5.1.2.2 Assembly with Flange Adapter
An appropriate flange adapter must be used for mounting the sensor. The connection of
the sensor base is shown in the following graphic.
