Minimum distance from reflective surfaces
} Pilz recommends that reflective surfaces with a distance of 3 m to the safety zone are re-
moved.
If this is not possible, the allowance Z
R
must be considered when calculating the safety
distance.
(The recommendation was determined with a background reflection of 300
. For
highly reflective backgrounds an additional safety assessment is required, taking into ac-
count the reflective background. This may result in a higher allowance.)
} Objects that may be influenced by safety laser scanners through ambient light, must not
be placed within the opening angle of the laser beam.
Allowance Z
R
with distances below the recommended minimum distances to intense
light sources or reflective surfaces
If the recommended distances cannot be met, the allowance Z
R
must be considered when
calculating the safety distance [ 35].
The value for the allowance Z
R
depends on the selected level of the dust filter.
} Z
R
= 87 mm for dust filter level = low
} Z
R
= 200 mm for dust filter level = high
INFORMATION
Determining of the allowance when the safety laser scanner has to be
installed near particularly intense or flashing light sources and a re-
flective background.
Use the higher value of the relevant allowances.
6.10 Distance from walls
The edges of the safety zone must have a distance of 40 mm to walls or fixed objects on all
sides.
With this value, the function of the safety laser scanner is ensured. Depending on the re-
flective conditions of the walls or objects, higher allowances may be necessary (see Dis-
tance to intense light sources and to reflective surfaces [ 50]).
INFORMATION
Used standard value of the teach-in function for the distance from
walls
The PSENscan Configurator teach-in function uses a standard value of
100mm. The value can be changed.
