•
S

= stopping distance in millimeters (mm)
•

Br
= braking distance, from the vehicle documentation, in millimeters (mm)
•

= distance covered during the vehicle control’s response time (including
signal propagation time), from the vehicle documentation, in millimeters (mm)
•
S
AnS
= distance covered during the safety laser scanner’s response time in milli‐
meters (mm)
The distance S
AnS
depends on t
he safety laser scanner’s response time and the
vehicle’s speed. The distance S
AnS
is calculated using the following formula:
S
AnS
= t

afety laser scanner’s response time in seconds (s)
°
V
max
= maximum speed of the vehicle, from the vehicle documentation, in
millimeters per second (mm/s) (If you define a number of monitoring cases
with different protective fields: V
max
= maximum speed of the vehicle in the
current monitoring case)

The scan plane must be at a maximum height of 200mm everywhere. Otherwise,
per
sons lying horizontally may not be detected.
