Minimum distance to permanently installed structures (e.g. racks)
The collision protection field must be at a sufficient distance from permanently instal‐
led structures (e.g. racks) that are located laterally along the travel path. This prevents
the collision protection field from detecting adjacent rack structures when the industrial
truck makes yawing movements.
In order for the collision protection field to cover the entire reference target at all times,
the reference target must have a minimum lateral distance from racks.

•
D
RT
= minimum distance of the reference target (outer edge) to permanently
installed structures when the industrial truck is in the center of the track

= length of the collision protection field

Length of the collision protection field
Overview
The collision protection field must be designed in such a way that 2 industrial trucks
moving towards each other head-on are braked in good time. The collision protection
field must be long enough to bring both industrial trucks to a standstill under all
conditions before they or their loads touch each other.

•
L
Stop
= maximum stopping distance for the braking mechanism triggered by the
collision protection field including any necessary supplements for brake wear. The
stopping distance must take into account the response time of the safety laser
scanner, the controller and, if necessary, other elements.
