Differing minimum distance to reflective surfaces for devices with a resolution of
30 mm w
ith weld spark guard
If a device with a resolution of 30 mm is used with the weld spark guard, the following
applies in contrast to other specifications in order to determine the minimum distance
from reflective surfaces:
1. Determine the distance D between sender and receiver in meters (m).
2. Read the minimum distance a in millimeters (mm) in the graph or calculate it
based on the respective formula (see table 42).
