Failing to maintain this clearance can cause the receiver to process reflected light rather than direct beams, potentially failing to register a safety breach. Always compute safety distance margins based on standard EN ISO 13855 formulas before final mechanical mounting.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch4\u003eCommissioning \u0026amp; Wiring Tips\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cp style=\"color: #2d3748; margin-bottom: 1rem;\"\u003eWhen routing cables for the emitter and receiver, keep them isolated from high-voltage AC motor lines, variable frequency drives (VFDs), and heavy inductive loads to prevent electromagnetic interference.
