5.3 Danger zone guarding
Safety Light Curtains can be used in horizontal arrangement for danger zone guarding - either as stand-
alone device for presence monitoring or as stepping behind protection for presence monitoring e.g. in
combination with a vertically-arranged safety sensor. Depending on the mounting height, resolutions of
40 or 90 mm are used (see table 15.3).If particularly high requirements are made on availability in envi-
ronments where disturbances are common, the DoubleScan or MaxiScan scan modes (see chapter 4.5
„Scan mode“) or a reduced resolution can be activated (see chapter 4.7.4 „Reduced resolution“).

WARNING
Risk of injury due to inadmissible application of blanking!
Blanking is not permitted with danger zone guarding since the blanked areas would form accessible
bridges to the danger zone.
 Do not use blanking for danger zone guarding.
