Installation
3. Installation and Alignment
3.1 Mounting the Emitter and Receiver
EZ-ARRAY emitters and receivers are compact and easy to
handle during mounting. When mounted to the sensor end caps,
the supplied mounting brackets allow ±30° rotation. Emitter/
receiver pairs may be spaced from 400 mm to 4 m (16" to 13')
apart.
From a common point of reference, make measurements to
locate the emitter and receiver in the same plane, with their
midpoints and display ends directly opposite each other. (If
sensors are mounted with their display ends at the top, see
Section 4.4 for directions on inverting the 3-digit display.) Mount
the brackets to the emitter and receiver housings using the
supplied M6 bolts and Keps nuts, or user-supplied hardware;
see Figure 3-1.
Figure 3-1. A-GAGE EZ-ARRAY emitter and receiver mounting hardware
Center mounting brackets must be used with longer sensors,
if they are subject to shock or vibration. In such situations,
the sensors are designed to be mounted with up to 900 mm
unsupported distance (between brackets). Sensors 1050 mm and
longer are supplied with a center bracket to be used as needed
with the standard end-cap brackets.
1. Attach the center bracket to the mounting surface when
mounting the end-cap brackets.
2 Attach the clamp to both slots of the housing, using the
included M5 screws and T-nuts.
3. After the sensor is mounted to the end-cap brackets, attach
the clamp to the center bracket using the supplied M5 screw.
NOTE: Sensor brackets are designed to mount directly to accessory MSA series stands (Section 2.3), using hardware supplied with the stands.
