BCB mounting in horizontal curves
NOTICE
Limited absolute measurement accuracy and reproducibility!
BCB mounting in curves reduces the absolute accuracy of the BPS, since the distance between
two bar codes is no longer exactly 40mm or 30mm due to optical distortions.
Ä For horizontal curves, maintain a minimum bending radius of 300mm.

BCB mounting in vertical curves
NOTICE
Limited absolute measurement accuracy and reproducibility!
Ä BCB mounting in curves decreases the absolute measurement accuracy of the BPS, since
the distance between two barcodes is no longer exactly 40mm or 30mm.
Ä In areas where the BCB is fanned out around curves, limitations of the reproducibility must
be expected.
