Where:
§
S is the minimum safety distance (in mm; 100 mm = 3.9 in)
§
t1 is the light curtain response time (in s)
§
t2 is the machine stopping time (in s)
§
H is the height of the detection plane above the reference floor (in mm)
§
Hu is the height of the uppermost beam above the reference floor (in mm)
§
Hl is the height of the lowest beam above the reference floor (in mm)
For more information, refer to the EN 999 European standard or comply with the requirements on safety distances
given by the type C European standard if existing for the considered machine.
IMPROPER USE OF FF-SYA234 multibeam systems
Do not use the FF-SYA234 multibeam systems in parallel or angled approach applications. Use the FF-SYA234 only in normal
approach applications.
Failure to comply with these instructions could result in death or serious injury.
