The connection housing is arranged on a first side of a wall and has an attachment portion and a connecting member. A lens arrangement has a lens head that is transparent to the radiation and an attachment portion and a connection member. The wall has a wall breakthrough through which at least one of the attachment portions projects, the connection members of the connection housing and the lens arrangement being mutually engaged. The wall breakthrough and at least one of the attachment portions that projects through it are complementary and formed in such a manner that the lens arrangement is maintained in a pre-specified horizontal position or rotational position and secured in the position against rotation.
