4.4.2 Required protective field width
The distance D
P
F–Shelf
between the protective field and the front of the shelf to be
programmed is given in Tab. 1 as a function of distance D
S
3000–Shelf
from the middle of
t
he S3000 to the front of the empty shelf.
The distances D
S
3000–Shelf
are to be determined for an industrial truck in the middle of
the narrow aisle at an angular error of 0° for the left and right protective field width.
If the S3000 is mounted off-centre on the industrial truck, the larger supplements S
PF
for the wider half protective field are to be used, however the protective field distances
D
PF–Shelf
correspond to the width on the left and right.
The left or right protective field width X
PF
is given by Tab. 1 from the following formula:
X
PF
= D

4.4.3 Example for the protective field configuration
Stopping distance L
Stop
= 350 cm, Fork length L
Fork

Off-centre mounting of the S3000 on the industrial truck:
– Distance on left from S3000 to front of shelf D
S3000–Shelf
= 100 cm
– Distance on right from S3000 to front of shelf 120 cm
The test object must be detected at the following distance from the front of the shelf:
– In front of the shelf on the left at a distance D
TO–Shelf
= 15 cm
– In front of the shelf on the right at a distance D
TO–Shelf
= 16 cm
Required protective field width X
PF
:
– Depending on the protective field length L
PF
, 4 to 8 corner points must be
programmed, see Tab. 2.
– For examples for protective field lengths 0 cm and 100 cm, see Tab. 3 and Tab. 4:
– Left protective field width X

= 100 – 9.5 = 90.5 cm
– Right protective field width X
