Installation and commissioning
4.5 Test object
T
he test object available as an accessory must be set up as per Fig. 3 and Tab. 1 for the
driving trials on the detection reliability. The top edge of the test object must always be at
a height of 80 cm above the floor.
All S3000 variants provide the required resolution of 70 mm at the max. protective field
radius. As a result only the bottom cylindrical part of the test object is relevant.
4.6 Commissioning
Before commissioning the industrial truck, ensure by means of at least 20 driving trials
that the test object is detected in the distance from the middle of the test object to the
front of the shelf in accordance with Tab. 1 and an industrial truck stops in time under the
conditions that result in the longest stopping distance.
As a rule this will be:
The maximum achievable velocity.
The maximum load to be expected.
The maximum dimensions to be expected for the load.
The trials are be performed 5 times in each direction of travel for the front of the shelf on
the left and the right.
Documentation of the driving trials and settings is to be included in the test certificate
required in accordance with the work safety regulations BGV D27 §39.
4.7 Checking the system
To ensure detection is reliable, the mounting of the S3000, the guide play and the braking
action on the industrial truck are to be checked regularly.
