• The sensors should detect the material only, and not the means of conveyance (e.g. pallet).

The sensors should detect the load,
and not the pallet.
• The material must be detected throughout the entire muting zone, i.e. the sensors’ output signals must remain
unchanged. This requirement must above all be adhered to when the material is uneven, is shifted when it enters
the muting zone or if its height changes.
