Emitter/receiver pairs can be spaced from 0.1 m (4 in) to 8 m (26.2 ft) apart. This distance is reduced if corner mirrors areused.Optional EZLSA-MBK-11 end-mount brackets allow ±23° rotation, can be mounted with flange out or flange in, and in 90°increments. Optional EZLSA-MBK-12 center-mount brackets allow 30° rotation in one direction and 15° in the other (seeMounting the End-Mount Brackets on page 29 andMounting the Center- and Side-Mount Brackets on page 30).Center- and side-mount brackets allow "no blind zone" mounting with minimal or no "gaps" in detection.EZLSA-MBK-12 or EZLSA-MBK-16 side-mount bracket must be used with longer sensors if they are subject to shock orvibration. In such situations, the sensors are designed to be mounted with up to 910 mm unsupported distance (betweenbrackets). Sensors 980 mm and longer are supplied with one additional center-mount bracket.5.2.2 Mounting the End-Mount BracketsEZLSA-MBK-11End Mount BracketFigure 15. End-Mount Brackets• SeeSensor Mounting and Mechanical Alignment onpage 31 for additional mounting recommendations.• The machine interface connector ends of bothsensors must point in the same direction.• Two brackets are supplied with each EZLSA-MBK-11kit. Additional EZLSA-MBK-12 center-mountbracket(s) may be required (seeMounting the Center-and Side-Mount Brackets on page 30).• Loosely mount the brackets to the desired surfaceusing the bolts and nuts supplied with the bracket kit,or user-supplied hardware. (Use the M5 hardware tomount the brackets to the light curtain; use the M6hardware to mount the brackets to the machine.)• Brackets are designed to mount directly to MSASeries stands using the hardware supplied with thestands.• Brackets may face in (shown on bottom) or out(shown on top), as desired.• SeeOptional Mounting Brackets on page 65 formounting bracket dimensions.1. From a common point of reference (ensuring the calculated minimum safety distance), measure to position theemitter and receiver in the same plane, with their midpoints directly opposite each other, and locate and drillmounting holes if necessary.2. Slide the end-mount bracket onto the side mounting channels and tighten the channel screws.3. Position the emitter and receiver, and attach the flange to the mounting holes.4. Verify that the sensor windows directly face each other by rotating the sensor(s), then tighten the bracket screws.5. Measure from a reference plane, for example, a level building floor, to the same point(s) on the emitter and receiverto verify their mechanical alignment. Use a carpenter’s level, a plumb bob, or the optional LAT-1 Laser AlignmentTool (seeAlignment Aids on page 67) or check the diagonal distances between the sensors, to achievemechanical alignment. SeeSensor Mounting and Mechanical Alignment on page 31.6. Temporarily tighten all fasteners that allow for adjustment.
