- Use appropriate tools for installation.
- The cells must only be used with a force limiting device conforming to the EN 12453 standard Appendix A.
- Do not dispose of scrapped appliances or used batteries with household waste. Relocate electronic and electrical equipment waste to a dedicated collection point for recycling.
Installation Instructions
- Wire the emitting cell (TX): Connect the wires to the TX unit as shown in Figure 7. Close the emitting cell cover.
- Wire the receiving cell (RX): Connect the wires to the RX unit as shown in Figure 9.
- Standard Connection: Refer to page 1 for the standard connection to your motor/receiver.
- Alignment Check:
- If the indicator light on the RX unit does not illuminate (Figure 10a), adjust the alignment of the receiving cell using a shim. Re-check the alignment.
- If the indicator light illuminates continuously (Figure 10b), the alignment is correct. Close the casing.
Maintenance
Every 6 months, check that the photoelectric cells are functioning correctly by passing a hand in front of them.
