S
Minimum distance in mm, measured from the start of the protective zone to the
danger source
K
Approach speed with which the object to be detected is nearing the danger zone in
mm/s
K = 1600 mm/s when S > 500 mm
K = 2000 mm/s when S ≤ 500 mm
t
1
Overall response time of the safety laser scanner in seconds (see
)
Time between the violation of a protective zone and signal change at the OSSD out-
put on the safety laser scanner
t
2
Machine's stopping time in seconds
The time required for the machine to stop after the signal at the OSSD output
changes
