Please contact yourABB Jokab Safety representative for advice. The operating distance of the device can be reduced in presence of smog, fog or airborne dust A sudden change in environment temperature, with very low minimum peaks, can generate a smallcondensation layer on the lenses and so jeopardize the function. The Muting/Override function is signaled by a muting/override lamp. Make sure that the lamp has sufficientlighting and is visibly positioned near the hazard zone. Make sure to correctly use the muting sensors as described in the instructions supplied hereinafter. Avoid incongruent connections that cannot be controlled and thus, exclude undesired potentially dangerousactivations.3.2 General Information on positioning the AOPDThe AOPD should be carefully positioned, in order to offer effective protection: access to the hazard zone must onlybe possible by passing through the detection zone of the AOPD.3.2.1 Minimum installation distanceSee paragraph 2.4 – “Minimum installation distance”.3.2.2 Minimum distance to reflecting surfacesReflecting surfaces placed near the light beams of the AOPD (over, under or laterally) can cause passive reflections.These reflections can compromise the recognition of an object inside the detection zone (see Figure 6).For example, if the receiver (RX) detects a secondary beam (reflected by the side-reflecting surface), the object mightnot be detected, even if the object interrupts the main beam.
