Installation
7.1
Electrical connection
Make the electrical connections as specified in Sections 10.2 Electrical data and 10.3 Pin assignement.
7.2
Mounting
(1) Mount the sensor at the nominal working
distance h (+/-3 mm) with the front
window parallel to the conveying plane.
(2) Adjust the sensor so that the laser beam
is aimed towards the edges to be
counted. When mounted correctly, the
overlap of the copies is facing in the
same direction as indicated in the
alignment aid. Note: the laser beam is
focused into a line which must be aligned
in parallel to the edge to be detected!
(3) Block the laser beam after the objects
whenever possible.
(4) Keep the window clean (remove any
fingerprints after mounting!).
(5) A direct line of sight from the laser impact
point to the entire front window must be
ensured.

Nominal working distance h FLDK 110x1003/Sxx
40 mm above the conveyor belt
FLDK 110x1005/Sxx

FLDK 110x1006/Sxx
The resolution is dependent on the distance. The highest resolution is
achieved at the nominal working distance. (See also Section 10.6
Specific application data)
Angular tolerance
max. +/- 3°
Overlap orientation
The copies are counted when the edge facing the laser beam moves
through the beam. If an edge faces away from the beam, it is not
detected. Tail edges are therefore not counted unless they face upwards.
Running direction
The SCATEC-2 permits both running directions. The edges facing the
laser beam (front edges) are detected by the sensor regardless of the
running direction.
Front window
The direct line of sight from the impact
point of the laser to the entire front window
must not be obstructed by any hardware in
a distance range
d = 0 – 80 mm FLDK 110x1003/Sxx
d = 0 – 120 mm FLDK 110x1005/Sxx
FLDK 110x1006/Sxx
If mountings or other components are close
to this zone for any reason, you should
consult a technician from Baumer Electric
