Mounting Guide
The Qb2 must only be operated after it has been installed to a stable mounting base. Blickfeld offers different mounting solutions for permanent or temporary installation purposes. Contact sales@blickfeld.com for further information.

Requirements
- 
Observe the operational and storage temperature limits at the mounting location. 
- 
Ensure that air flow at the heatsink of the device is not obstructed by leaving at least 20 cm of gap between the sensor and surrounding structures in all directions. 
- 
Always use the defined mounting interfaces of the Qb2 as shown below. 
- 
Ensure that the field-of-view of the sensos is not occluded by surrounding objects. 
- 
Avoid mounting to structures that exert or transmit vibrations or shaking to the sensor. 
- 
Avoid mounting configurations where the sensor would receive direct sunlight or sunlight reflections from shiny surfaces. 
- 
Make sure that the device is only accessible to instructed personnel. 
| Do not place the Qb2 in the immediate vicinity of sources of magnetic fields. This can degrade the performance of the sensor and, in extreme cases, lead to temporary malfunction. | 
Mounting instructions
It is recommended to perform the mounting process in two steps:
- 
Mounting and rough alignment with the sensor switched off 
- 
Fine adjustment of sensor orientation while observing the point cloud 
| Hot surface! After longer periods of operation (> 5 min) the housing of the Qb2 can be hot. Avoid touching during operation or let the sensor cool down after operation. |
