7.1.5 Information on protective field dimensioning
Dimension the protective field big enough that the safety sensor's switching signal can stop the danger
-
ous movement in good time.
If several protective fields are selected with field pair changeover, this condition applies for all protective
fields.
Protective fields with a radius of less than 200 mm (safety sensor short range) are not permitted and
are therefore preset as minimum contour.
If you cannot sufficiently dimension a protective field, use additional protective measures, e.g. safety
guards.
Ensure that the protective field cannot be walked behind in the direction of the danger zone.
Observe all delay times, e.g. safety sensor response times, control element response times, braking
times or machine or driverless transportation system stopping times (DTS).
Take changed delay times, which, for example, can be caused by reducing the braking force, into
account.
Observe shadowing effects, e.g. surfaces and areas behind static objects. People in the shadows of
these objects will not be detected by the safety sensor.
Observe the lateral tolerance when dimensioning the protective fields (see chapter 15 "Technical data").
Do not use cone-shaped protective field contours, as these do not guarantee any protective function.
Take the additional distances required for the application into account.
Handling unmonitored areas
There is an area behind the safety sensor that the safety sensor does not monitor. Unmonitored areas can
also materialize, e.g. if you install a safety sensor on a rounded off vehicle front.
It must not be possible to walk behind unmonitored areas.
