Measures to protect any areas that are not covered by the safety laser scanner
NOTE
After defining the protective field size, mark the boundaries of the protective field on
the floor. By doing this, you enable the operators of the system to see the protective
field boundaries, and make it easier to check the protective function at a later date.
4.3.4.1
Protective field size
Overview
The protective field must be configured in such a way that a minimum distance (S) to
the hazardous area is maintained. This minimum distance ensures that the hazardous
point can only be reached if the dangerous state of the machine has been stopped
completely.
You can operate the device in stationary horizontal operation using a 30, 40, 50 or
70 mm resolution. The resolution determines the maximum protective field range of the
device.
Important information
WARNING
Persons or parts of the body to be protected may not be recognized or not recognized in
time in case of non-observance.
With a 70 mm resolution and low mounting height, it may not be possible to detect a
human leg.
b
For horizontal stationary applications with a 70 mm resolution, mount the scan
plane at a height of at least 300 mm above the floor in accordance with
ISO 13855 (
see "Height of the scan plane at 70 mm resolution", page 41
).
NOTE
If you use a S300 Advanced, Professional or Expert, you can define several monitoring
cases with different protective fields. In this case you must calculate the protective field
sizes for all protective fields used.
