5.4.3 Mounting height
According to DIN EN 999, the lowest admissible height of the scanning plane for people,
as measured from the base level, is calculated according to the following formula:
H
MIN
= 15 × (d - 50mm)
H
MIN
= Lowest admissible scanning plane from the base level
d = Resolution of the scanner in mm (object size = 70mm throughout the detection
zone).
The admissible height range of the SD3-A1 scanning plane lies between 0mm
(presettings leg detection) and 1,000mm above the base level. If the application requires
a scanning plane higher than 300mm, or if children have access to the area, the analysis
of the danger zone must consider the hazard caused by persons crawling below the
scanning plane.
5.4.4
Unmonitored zones can result if the scanner is mounted onto a protruding attachment or
if the contour of the machine / system is varied in depth.
