4.2 Protection from affecting systems in close proximity
Prevent the affection of systems mounted in close proximity
If several safety light curtains operate in close proximity to each other, the sender beams
of one system may interfere with the receiver of another system. This can disrupt the pro-
tective function of the system. This would mean that the operator is at risk. You must avoid
such mounting scenarios or take appropriate measures, e.g. by mounting non-reflective
sight protection walls or by reversing the transmission direction of a system.
