4.3.10 Hazardous area protection
Hazardous area protection
T
he safety camera sensor is mounted in a stationary application, for example on a
machine where the hazardous area is not completely surrounded by a physical guard.
When used for hazardous area protection, the camera sensor detects the person. The
camera sensor is mounted in such a way that the protective field scans the immediate
hazardous area around a machine and detects an approaching movement. The camera
sensor can be arranged horizontally or vertically for this purpose.
To monitor the largest possible area, vertical arrangement of the camera sensor and
use of the Increased scanning range mode are suitable.

Mar
king the course of the protective field boundaries on the floor is recommended. By
doing this, you allow operating personnel to see the protective field boundaries and
make it easier to test at a later date.
