Reaction times of cascaded light grids

Cascaded light grids detect an interruption of a downstream-connected sensor within 3 ms.
The reaction time on interruption of a light grid is equal to its intrinsic reaction time plus 3 ms per preceding light grid.

Main sensor:

Intrinsic reaction time (as indicated on the type plate)

Downstream sensor 1:

Intrinsic reaction time + 3 ms

Downstream sensor 2:

Intrinsic reaction time + 6 ms (2 x 3 ms)

The intrinsic reaction time is stated on the light grid's type plate.
The table on Page 11 lists intrinsic reaction times of all standard light grids.

Safety clearances for cascaded light grids

When calculating safety clearances (refer to Chapter 2.2), note that the reaction time on interruption of a cascaded light

grid increases by 3 ms per preceding light grid.
