Scanning range of the reference contour field
T
he effective scanning range of the reference contour field is the same as the protec‐
tive field range.
Scanning range of the contour detection field
T
he effective scanning range of the contour detection field is the same as the protective
field range.
Range for warning fields
F
or non-safety applications (warning fields), the safety laser scanner has a larger scan‐
ning range than the maximum protective field range. The requirements for size and
remission of objects to be detected are illustrated in the following graphs as a function
of the desired scanning range.
