surement error, by which the protective field contour must be enlarged.
The position of the rotary mirror's center point with regard to the housing is provided by the dimensioned
drawings.

Additional distance Z
SM
for the protective field contour because of measurement error
Avoid retro-reflectors at the beam level beyond the protective field boundaries. If this is not possible,
add another additional distance Z
REFL
of 100 mm.
Minimum distance D to the protective field contour
The minimum distance D is the distance between point of operation and protective field contour.

If the protective field runs up against fixed boundaries, such as walls or machine frames, take a coun

tersinking into the machine contour of at least the size of the necessary additional distance Z
SM
, and Z
REFL
where required, into account. With the protective field contour under these conditions, stay about 50 mm
away from the machine surface.
If the protective field runs up against hard guards, ensure that the protective field ends under instead of
in front of the hard guards. The width of the lower post must correspond with the size of the required
additional distances.
If all hazards in the fenced off area are covered by the safety sensor and the height of the beam level
is 300 mm, you can raise the bottom edge of the hard guards from 200 mm to 350 mm. The protective
field reaching to under the hard guards takes over the protective function of preventing an adult from
crawling under in this case.
Prevent obstructions within the calculated protective field boundaries. If this is not possible, implement
protective measures so that the point of operation cannot be reached from out of the shadow of the
obstruction.
