3-2 Mounting3-2-1 Mounting Procedure© Panasonic Industrial Devices SUNX Co., Ltd. 2013 MJE-SF4A No.0038-55V- 42 - Mount the emitter and the receiver at the same level and parallel to each other. The effectiveaperture angle of this device is ±2.5° or less for a sensing distance exceeding 3m. Unless otherwise specified, the following mounting procedure is common for both emitter and receiver.For the mounting, prepare the mounting holes on the mounting surface by referring to ‘2-4 Dimensions’. For laser alignment, it is useful to use the beam alignment tool for light curtain (SF-LAT-2N) (optional).intermediate supporting bracket>1. Place the retaining plate on the U-shaped rear mounting supporting bracket andtemporarily tighten them with the pan head screw [M3 (length 10mm)]. When installing this device having 36 beam channels, or more, at places wherevibration is intense, mount the U-shaped rear (side) mounting intermediatesupporting bracket and L-shaped intermediate supporting bracket. Wire the cable of this device such that excessive force is not applied to it, and that, after the wiring,it is not subjected to any load. Applying excessive force or any load may cause wire breakage. The minimum bending radius of the cable is R30mm. Mount the sensorconsidering the cable bending radius.2. Temporarily tighten the L-shaped intermediate supporting bracket to the U-shaped rear mounting supportingbracket with the hexagon-socket-head bolt with washer [M4 (length 10mm)] for position adjustment.3. Clamp the sensor main body with the U-shaped rear mounting supporting bracket and completelytighten the pan head screw that secures the retaining plate. (Tightening torque: 0.4N·m or less)After beam-axis alignment, completely tighten the bolt that secures the U-shaped rear mountingsupporting bracket and the L-shaped intermediate supporting bracket. (Tightening torque: 1.8N · m or less)For mounting the receiver, the U-shaped rear mounting intermediate supporting bracket is mountedupside down.
