Minimum installation distance
The safety device must be positioned at a specific safety distance (Figure 3).
This distance must ensure that the dangerous area cannot be reached before the dan-
gerous motion of the machine has been stopped by the Safety Control System.
The safety distance depends on 4 factors, according to the EN ISO 13855 Standard:
•
Response time of the ESPE (the time between the effective beam interruption and
the opening of the OSSD contacts)
•
Machine stopping time including Safety Control System computing and actuating
time if present.
•
ESPE resolution
•
Approaching speed of the object to be detected
Figure 3 - Installation distance (vertical positioning)
The following formula is used for the calculation of the safety distance:
S = K (t1 + t2) + C
where:
•
S = Minimum safety distance in mm
•
K = Speed of the object, limb or body approaching the dangerous area in mm/s
•
t1 = Response time of the ESPE in seconds (see "
)
•
t2 = Machine stopping time in seconds (including the Safety Control System)
•
C = Additional distance based on the possibility to insert the body or one of the
body parts inside the dangerous area before the protective device trips.
C=8 (R - 14) for devices with resolution
≤
40 mm
C=850 mm for devices with resolution > 40 mm
•
R = Resolution of the system
NOTE
K value is:
2000 mm/s if the calculated value of S is
≤
500 mm
1600 mm/s if the calculated value of S is > 500 mm
