SAFERY LASER SCANNER
Additional measures must be provided if there exists any unprotected space larger than
the minimum detectable object size between the Safety Zone and the protective struc
-
ture.
• At least 3 Reference Points must be defined per object. A maximum of 15 Refer-
ence Points total can be defined.
• The Reference Point tolerance must be set for each Reference Point through the
GUI. The minimum t
olerance is +/- 10 mm where Tol - is the tolerance closest to
the scanner and Tol + is farthest from the scanner measured on a radial line from
the scanner origin.
• If the user configures a vertical application with a number of Scans greater than 2,
the GUI giv
es a warning message indicating that this configuration is not valid for
whole body protection applications (greater than 1.6 m/s). To safely apply the
Laser Sentinel in applications with normal approach (i.e. when the monitored
plane is vertical), refer to IEC 61496-3 Annex A.12.
NOTE
If the Muting function is enabled, the Reference Points must be configured in
such a way that they are not detected by the moving material during Muting.
Otherwise, the Safety Laser Scanner will go to “OFF state for Reference Point”
and the OSSDs will switch to OFF state to stop the machine.
