The emitter and the receiver unit must be installed in such a way that any
possible access to the danger zone leads to the occultation of at least one
beam of the ARGOLUX AS system. The detection zone defined by the
protection height and the scanning distance of the emitter and the receiver
must prevent any possible access from the top, the bottom or the sides. The
use of additional guards might be necessary (interlocked or fixed mechani-
cal guards or additional safety light curtain).
