Installation
The EZSS series lens shield can be installed either by sliding it over the emitter/receiver
housing or by snapping it into place. Sliding it on must be done prior to installing the
sensors; snapping it into place can be done after sensor installation. If side brackets are
used, notches must be cut into the sides of the shield, before snapping it into place. Each
shield is 2 mm longer than the sensor housing section; it will overlap the blind end-cap by
2 mm.
To slide the shield onto the housing:
1. Remove the protective film from both the inside and outside surfaces of the shield.
(NOTE: Take care; the shield’s cut edges may be sharp.)
2. If desired, install gasket across one end of the shield; this gasket should be
positioned at the top edge of the sensor (whether the QD end is mounted up or
down).
3. Carefully slide the shield onto the housing from the blind-end-cap end, aligning the
shield’s tabs in the sensor’s T-nut slot, until the edge of the shield touches the edge
of the far end cap.
4. If the gasket shifted its position during step 3, press it into place and install sensor.
5. Perform the trip test with the lens shield in place, before using system.

positioned at the top edge of the sensor (whether the QD end is mounted up or
down).
3. Holding the end of the shield to be located at the cabled end of the sensor, spread
the sides of the shield apart. Butt the edge of the shield up to the edge of the
cabled end cap and ease the sides of the shield around the housing, until the tabs
are in the sensor’s T-nut slots. From that end, gradually press the rest of the shield
into place.
4. Perform the trip test with the lens shield in place, before using system.
