he necessary supplement to the minimum distance depends on the height of the
protective field’s scan plane. The supplement is larger if the safety laser scanner is
affixed low-down than if it is affixed high-up.

►
If you have sufficient free space in front of your machine, use value 1,200mm as
the supplement C

If you want to keep the minimum distance as low as possible, use the following
formula to calculate C
