Installations on moving elements
6.6.1
Introduction
safeRS3 Sensor can be mounted on moving vehicles or moving parts of the machinery.
The characteristics of the protective field and of the response time are the same as in
static installations.
6.6.2
Speed limits
The detection is guaranteed only if the speed of the vehicle or of the part of machinery
is from 0.1 m/s (0.66 ft/s) to 1.6 m/s (5.25 ft/s).
Note
: only the speed of the vehicle or of the part of machinery is considered. This is
based on the assumption that the person recognizes the hazard and stands still.
