Figure 30: Horizontally mounted stationary application
F
or a horizontal stationary application, you determine the following:
•
The protective field size to maintain the necessary minimum distance
•
The height of the scan plane
•
The restart behavior
•
Measures to protect any areas that are not covered by the safety laser scanner
NOTE
Af
ter defining the protective field size, mark the boundaries of the protective field on
the floor. By doing this, you enable the operators of the system to see the protective
field boundaries, and make it easier to check the protective function at a later date.
4.3.4.1 Protective field size
Overview
T
he protective field must be configured in such a way that a minimum distance (S) to
the hazardous area is maintained. This minimum distance ensures that the hazardous
point can only be reached if the dangerous state of the machine has been stopped
completely.
