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
The effective scanning range of the contour detection field is the same as the protective
field range.
Warning field range and distance measurement range
For non-safety applications (warning fields, measured data output), the safety laser
scanner has a larger scanning range than the maximum protective field range. The
requirements for size and reflectance factor of objects to be detected are illustrated in
the following graphs as a function of the desired scanning range. Under good condi‐
tions, in many cases a smaller object size or a lower reflectance factor is sufficient to
achieve the desired range.
The range is limited to 10 m for warning fields.
