Formula for calculating the light spot width:
(Light spot divergence [mrad] + supplement [mrad]) * distance [mm] + light spot size
on the device cover [mm] = light spot width [mm]
Calculation example of light spot width at a distance of 4m, with supplement 5.8mrad:
(8.6mrad +5.8mrad) * 4,000mm +7mm= 64.6mm
Formula for calculating the height of the light spot:
Light spot divergence [mrad] * Distance [mm] + Light spot size at the device cover
[mm] = Light spot width [mm]
Example calculation of the light spot height at a distance of 4m:
8.6mrad * 4,000mm +7mm = 41.4mm
Formula for calculating the minimum object size:
2 * supplement [mrad] * distance [mm] + light spot height [mm] = minimum object
size [mm]
Calculation example of minimum object size at a distance of 4m, with supplement
5.8mrad:
2 * 5.8mrad * 4,000mm + 41.4mm = 87.8mm
3.9 Safety function
The device is intended for use in personal protective equipment for detecting safety-
related objects in mobile and stationary applications.
It also comes with a safety function (see "Operating modes/operational statuses",
page 40)
During normal operation, the safety function is to report that it has detected the
presence or entry of objects in the active protective fields.
The device meets the requirements of performance level b (PL b), Category B, according
to EN ISO 13849-1:2015 and can be used within its area of application for risk
reduction according to its features.
