If the LMS Axle is mounted within the gray area (3), the system's ability to count axles
accurately will be reduced.
Mounting accessories
The associated mounting kits for mounting of the 2D LiDAR sensors can be purchased at
SICK AG (see chapter
4.2.4.3 SICK mounting accessories for the LMS511 2D LiDAR
4.2.4.3
SICK mounting accessories for the LMS511 2D LiDAR sensor
In order to protect the LMS511 2D LiDAR sensor housing against the weather, we
recommend fitting a
weather hood
.
The weather hood also protects the 2D LiDAR sensor from direct sunlight on the 2D LiDAR
sensor housing (overheating) and, to a great extent, from dazzle resulting from sunlight or
other light sources.
Mounting brackets
Suitable mounting kits for mounting the LMS511 (with or without the weather hood) can
be purchased from SICK AG.
If the bracket is provided by the user, the following points must be observed:
•
Stable mounting bracket that allows adjustable
alignment of the 2D LiDAR sensor in the X- and Y-axes
•
4 x M6 screws for the LMS511
•
The screw length must be selected in accordance with the wall thickness/bracket used
For detailed information about mounting the 2D LiDAR sensors, please refer to the
operating instructions for the device concerned.
Recommendation
To ensure that the back of the LMS511 is also protected against the weather when a
weather hood (1) is fitted, we recommend mounting a plate (2) to cover the device
housing.
