To guarantee the correct functioning of the safety light curtains, we recommend the use
of no more than three deviating mirrors to deviate the beam along the optic path.
Each mirror used decreases the operating range of the safety light curtain by 15%, 20%,
25%. Apply a correction factor of 85% using one mirror, 65% using two mirrors, 50% for
three mirrors.
To maintain the correct functioning of the system, we advise to periodically clean the
mirror surface using a damp non-abrasive cloth. The cleaning frequency depends on the
system’s surrounding environment.
The mirror length has to be at least 100 mm superior to the length of the light curtain’s
protected area.
The mirror has to be mounted in such a manner that its axis (horizontal and vertical)
coincide with the corresponding safety device axis.
The mirror has to be solidly fixed to avoid accidental movements or strong vibrations.
The use of the SE-S floor stand or the SG-PSB Protective Armor Stands is
recommended. The mirror is fixed to these using the appropriate accessory mounting kit.
The use of the “SE-DM K DEVIATING MIRROR FIXING KIT” (cod.95ACC2530) is
recommended when installing the devices in environments characterized by strong
temperature variations and/or in presence of vibrations.
Given the limited mirror width, the entire system is particularly sensitive also to small
rotations along the vertical axis of the mirror and emitting and receiving units.
Hence particular attention has to be taken during system alignment and part fixing.
To facilitate system installation (mirror/s and safety light curtain) the use of the Datalogic
SG-LP laser pointer is suggested.
The drawing shows an area protection system composed of a safety light curtain and two
mirrors.

INSTALLATION
INSTALLATION ON SE-S/BOSCH BAR "STAND ALONE"
Mounting requires the bracket kit ST-DM 95ASE1940.
1. Define the area to protect and the precise positions where the deviating mirrors and the
emitting and receiving units of the light curtain will be installed.
2. Fix the floor stands, in the defined points, verifying that their axes are perpendicular to
the floor.
3. Install the deviating mirrors and emitting and receiving units on the floor stands
respecting the warnings given previously. To mount the brackets on the mirror’s carter
insert the M6x50 UNI 5931 screw, coupling the bracket assembly to the carter’s slot and
tighten the screw (Figure 2).
4. Orient the mirrors to about 45° with respect to the optic path.
5. Insert the SG-LP laser pointer in the upper part of the emitting unit; orient the unit in order
that the laser beam hits the surface of the first mirror in a central point of the vertical axis
and at the same height at which the pointer is installed.
6. Repeat the same procedure inserting the pointer in the lower part of the unit; if necessary
repeat these procedures until the desired result is achieved.
7. Orient the first mirror in order that the laser beam hits the second mirror as described
above.
8. For the angular adjustment rotate the fixing brackets on the relative pins and fix the
screws when the required position is reached. For adjustments of the vertical axis use the
holes present of the mirror’s body and/or modify the inclination of the floor stand using
washers.
9. Orient the second mirror according to the same modes used previously guaranteeing that
the laser beam hits the receiving unit.
10. Insert the SG-LP laser pointer in the upper part of the receiving unit and, orientating this
unit, in order that the laser beam, reflected from the two mirrors, hits the emitting unit.
11. Repeat the same procedure inserting the laser pointer in the lower part of the unit.
