V
max
} Approach speed with which the object to be detected is nearing the danger zone
in mm/s
V = min. 1600 mm/s
} Max. approach speed of the automated guided vehicle
at an approach speed>1600mm/s
The applicable approach speed must be determined using a risk assessment.
Z
T
General safety allowance = 150mm
Z
R
Allowance when installing near intense light sources or reflective surfaces (see Dis-
tance to intense light sources and to reflective surfaces [ 40])
Z
F
Allowance for missing ground clearance (length of a foot)
Z
B
Allowance for decreasing braking power of the automated guided vehicle system
(AGV) in mm (10% of braking distance S
Br
)
Please note:
} Height of the scan plane
Pilz recommends a scan plane height of 15cm.
A person lying on the floor is detected. A lower height would lead to reduced availability
because of the increased dust formation on the floor.
} If required, prevent the access to dead zone on the sides of the automated guided vehicle
system by additional safeguards.
If this is not possible, the speed of the automated guided vehicle system must be limited
to 0.3m/s.
