Peak Power 100mW Emitted Wavelength 660nm 10 Section 2 2 Proper Handling and Precautions 2 1 System Installation 2 1 1 Component Grounding All sensors should be grounded to the earth chassis through their housing For sensors with through hole mounts this can be accomplished by using star washers on the mounting bolts The star washers must cut through the powder coating to provide electrical conductivity from the mounting hardware to the sensor housing For sensors with tapped hole mounts conductive hardware must to be used between the sensor and the frame This must be checked with a multi meter by ensuring electrical continuity between the frame and the connector housing on the sensor It is imperative that the scan frame or chassis that the sensor is mounted to is connected to earth ground Master networking products should have the housing connected to earth ground This can be accomplished using star washers on the mounting holes or through the earth ground connection located on the rear of the Master 1200 and 2400 FireSync Networking products should be installed inside electrical cabinets that are suitably grounded to earth ground 2 1 2 Shielded Cable LMI Technologies recommends the use of shielded cables in all environments to ensure isolation from electrical noise The shield should be electrically connected to both the sensor housing through the connector housing and to the electrical box containing either the Master n
