Reference Floor Flatness and Rigidity Considerations
Like all pressure sensitive devices, the response of the mat depends on the surface on which
it lays. Ideally, the safety mat should be laid on a flat, rigid, hard and smooth reference floor.
The coating on the bottom of the mat (sensor) can absorb some irregularities of the floor, such
as particles of a diameter of less than 1 mm (0.04 in). If significant floor irregularities exist,
place a 2.5 mm (0.10 in) thick piece of sheet metal under the mat to ensure a constant
response on the whole mat surface. The flatness of the floor must be lower than 5 mm (0.20
in) per meter (3.28 ft) without taking into account the irregularities.
If a floor is not rigid, strengthen the rigidity of the surface so the maximum allowed bending
shall be 5 mm (0.20 in) under 30 kg (66.1 lb.) with a 200 mm (7.87 in) radius. See figure 2-6.
