3. Select Mounting Brackets - These are optional. Sensing Units come with standard mounting brackets.
  • Determine if standard mounting brackets will suffice. Consult your Tapeswitch application specialist.
  • If required, select optional swivel, clamping, or vibration-damping mounting brackets.
4. Select Floor Stands - These are optional.
  • Determine if floor stands are required. Consult your Tapeswitch application specialist.
  • If required, select the number of floor stands required.
5. Select Mirror Assemblies - These are optional.
  • Determine if mirrors are required. Consult your Tapeswitch application specialist.
  • If required, select the appropriate mirror type from the table.

6. Select Safety Controller - This is optional, but recommended.
  • Determine if a safety controller is required.
  • If required, select a safety controller: BSRSA, BSRUA-2, SRUB, SRUS, C6, or BC-1.
7. Select Power Supply - This is optional.
  • If an SRUB Safety Controller has been selected, determine if you need a power supply.
  • If required, select the GDC1 Power Supply.
8. Select Additional Accessories - These optional accessories provide useful functions for installing, maintaining and troubleshooting the light curtains.
Programming Unit - Used to program fixed and floating blanking on the sensing units.

Laser Alignment Tool - Provides a visual indication of alignment between the emitting and receiving unit. Simplifies alignment, especially when then units are far apart.

Diagnostic Software Kit - Interfaces the safety light curtain sensing units to a laptop computer. Shows real-time status of each beam and logs data.
