Minimum distance S
S [mm] = Minimum distance between the protective field of the AOPD and the detection points of the mut-
ing-sensor light beams
v [m/s] = Speed of the material
Distanced should be as small as practical
d [mm] = Distance from the intersection point of the muting-sensor light beams to the protective-field
plane<200mm
Arrangement of diffuse sensors
An additional option for arranging the muting sensors is shown in the following figure. The diffuse sensors
are arranged and set within the danger zone so that their scanning points detect a valid, approaching mut-
ing object within the danger zone, but a person is not able to reach both scanning points simultaneously.
