each configured Safety zone and for each Warning zone.
12. Select Dust filter level (level1=low, level 3=high).
A higher level of dust filtering requires a longer safety distance.
WARNING!
Loss of safety function due to a safety distance that is too low
Depending on the application, serious injury or death may result.
} Depending on the degree of dust filtering, it is necessary to consider an
allowance for calculating the safety distance when installing the safety
laser scanner near intense light sources or reflective surfaces into ac-
count (see Distance to intense light sources and to reflective
surfaces [ 40]).
– When calculating the safety distance, ensure that the allowance is
considered depending on the dust filtering.
– Ensure that the new safety distance fulfils the specifications of the
safety assessment.
