Sensor Mounting

The optoNCDT 2300 sensor is an optical system for measurements with micrometer accuracy.

i

Ensure careful handling during installation and operation!

Mount the sensor only to the existing through-bores on a flat surface. Any type of clamping is not permitted.

Use three M4 screws to mount the sensors. The bearing surfaces surrounding the throughholes (fastening holes) are slightly raised.

Assembly Instructions

opto NCDT 2300

Proper Environment

- Protection class: IP65 (applies only when sensor cable is plugged in)

Lenses are excluded from the protection class. Contamination of the lenses causes impairment or failure of the function.

- Operating temperature: 0 ... +50 °C (+32 ... +122 °F)

- Storage temperature: -20 ... +70 °C (-4 ... +158 °F)

- Humidity: 5 - 95% (non-condensing)

- Ambient pressure: Atmospheric pressure

Warnings

Connect the power supply according to the safety regulations for electrical equipment. The supply voltage must not exceed the specified limits.

> Risk of injury, damage to or destruction of the sensor.

Avoid constant exposure of the sensor to splashes of water. Avoid exposure of sensor to aggressive media (detergents, cooling emulsions).

> Damage to or destruction of the sensor

Avoid shock and vibration to the sensor. Protect the sensor cable against damage.

> Damage to or destruction of the sensor , failure of the measuring device.

Laser Safety

The ILD2300-x operates with a semiconductor laser with a wavelength of 670 nm (visible/red), the

ILD2300-xBL operates with a semiconductor laser with a wavelength of 405 nm (visible/blue). The sensors fall within laser class 2.

The following warning labels are attached to the cover (front and rear side) of the sensor housing:

Laser radiation. Close your eyes or immediately turn away if the laser beam hits the eye. Irritation or injury of the eyes possible.

Optimizing the Measurement Accuracy

Alignment to a wall

In order to suppress stray reflections, a corresponding clearance around the reception area of the sensor must be kept free.

Turning object

The sensor should ideally be aligned along the axis of rotation.

Color change

The sensor should ideally be aligned at 90° to the direction of movement/ color change.

correct incorrect

(shadow)

In case of bore holes, blind holes and edges in the surface of moving parts, the sensor must be arranged in such a way that the edge does not obscure the laser spot.
