Mounting

The wide beam pattern of PVA emitters and receivers simplifies their alignment. M4 stainless
steel fasteners and two stainless steel brackets are included with each sensor.
Mount each emitter and its corresponding receiver parallel to one another in the same plane, with
their cable ends pointing the same direction, and their tops and bottoms aligned.

1. From a common point of reference, make measurements to locate the emitter and receiver

in the same plane with their midpoints directly opposite each other.

2. Mount the included brackets to the top and bottom of each sensor, as shown.
3. Mount the emitter and receiver in their brackets, being careful to position the red lenses of

the two units directly facing each other. (Remember, the cable ends of both sensors must
point in the same direction to ensure proper sensing.)

4. Measure from one or more reference planes (for example, the building or bin floor) to the

same point(s) on the emitter and receiver to verify their mechanical alignment. (If the sen-
sors are mounted exactly vertical or horizontal, a carpenter’s level may be helpful. A
straightedge or a string extended between the sensors may also be helpful.)

5. Also check “by eye” for line-of-sight alignment.
6. Make any necessary final mechanical adjustments, and hand-tighten the bracket hardware.
7. After the electrical hookup is complete, check for beam alignment. If necessary, re-align the

emitter and receiver at that time.

Hookups

All models feature integral 2 m (6.5 ft) long, 3.3 mm (0.13 inch) dia. PVC-jacketed cables. Models whose model numbers end in “Q” are
terminated with quick-disconnect (QD) Euro-style 4-pin connectors; other models have unterminated ends.
