The necessary supplement to the minimum distance depends on the height of the
protective field’s scan plane. The supplement is larger if the safety laser scanner is
affixed low-down than if it is affixed high-up.
Calculating the supplement C
b
If you have sufficient free space in front of your machine, use value 1200
mm as
the supplement C.
b
If you want to keep the minimum distance as low as possible, use the following
formula to calculate C:
C = 1200 mm – (0.4 × H

)
where:
