Mounting
5.1
Prerequisites
The following requirements must be met when mounting the SIG350:
•
Level mounting surface free of mechanical stress.
•
Provide suitable earthing.
•
Select suitable mounting location with regard to vibration and impact load, temper‐
ature and humidity
see "General technical data", page 71
•
Protected to prevent the connecting cables from being torn off by personnel or the
device.
•
For proper installation and improved heat dissipation, keeping a minimum dis‐
tance of 3 mm between two modules is recommended.
•
When using angled plug connectors, a minimum distance of 50 mm must be
maintained between two modules.
•
Mount modules in such a way that they cannot be used as climbing aids.
NOTE
To ensure IP 67 protection, all unused connections must be covered with sealing
caps. These are not included in the scope of delivery and must be ordered separately.
Suitable sealing caps can be found at SICK.com (part number 5309189). In addition,
connected cables and sealing caps must be fastened with the appropriate torque (see
manufacturer’s specifications).
5.2
Module mounting
The SIG350 is mounted using two screws (max. M6) and two washers.
The fixing screws and tightening torques depend on the substrate of the mounting
location. Always tighten the screws carefully and observe the maximum permissible
tightening torque of 3 Nm.
