6.5 Distance of the reflecting surfaces
Reflective surfaces close to photoelectric safety sensors can disable the
safety function of the system�
The minimum distance (D) depends on the protective area width (I) taking into
consideration the projection and receiving angles�
The minimum distance (D) between reflective surfaces and the protected
area (P) must be observed� In case of non-respect an object to be
detected may not be detected� In case of improper handling of the product,
the safety and physical integrity of operators and machinery cannot be
guaranteed�
transmitter (T)
receiver (R)
D = minimum distance; I = protected area width (range); P = protected area
►
After installation test by intended interruption of the protected area (P) if
reflective surfaces affect the function of the photoelectric safety sensors�
