Figure 6: Detection of a very narrow object using the cross-beam function
Minimum object length (MOL):
The minimum object length designates the minimum length of an object that is reliably
detected. Since the SLG-2 has a cycle time or minimum dwell time of a few millisec‐
onds, the minimum object length depends on the object velocity at which the object
orthogonally passes the SLG-2. A static object has a minimum object length of 3 mm.
The following formula applies to the calculation of the minimum object length:
MOL = object speed x minimum dwell time + 3 mm
NOTE
The minimum dwell time depends on the device type and can be determined via the
information in chapter chapter 11.
