IMPROPER INSTALLATION HEIGHT OF FF-SE LASER SCANNER
When choosing an installation height, ensure that personnel cannot penetrate the safety area above or below the
laser beam. In Europe, the installation height H must be greater or equal to 300 mm (11.82 in) and smaller than
or equal to 1000 mm (39.4 in).
Failure to comply with these instructions will result in death or serious injury.
IMPROPER INSTALLATION OF FF-SE LASER SCANNER
Ensure that personnel can not reach the dangerous zone without passing through the protection area.
Ensure that personnel can not reach the dangerous zone from above or below the protection area
Use additional protection or hardware to prevent such access.
Failure to comply with these instructions could result in death or serious injury.
IMPROPER INTEGRATION OF FF-SE LASER SCANNER
FF-SE integration into the machine control must be performed by an authorised person who knows the safety
regulations and the necessary information concerning the dangerous machine.
Failure to comply with these instructions could result in death or serious injury.

4.5.2 Sensor accuracy / safety margin

The sensor accuracy depends on the distance. A safety margin needs to be taken into account when calculating
the safety distances :
Range
R ” 2 m (6.56 ft) *
2 < R ” 3 m (9.84 ft) *
3 < R ” 4 m (13.12 ft) *
4 < R ” 5 m (16.4 ft) *
5 < R ” 6 m (19.68 ft) *
* Distance measurements always include safety extensions.
These tolerances consider all conceivable influences, in particular the reflective properties of all possible
materials, as well as possible background influences, and all temperature range change. The tolerance to be
added depends on the safety distance which is calculated with the formula in section 4.5.
IMPROPER SAFETY DISTANCES
When programming the sensor, consider the safety margins. These safety margins need to be added only on
the "open" side of the protection zones. Where the protection zones follow obstacles like walls, the distance to
obstacles explained in section 3.5.1 must be taken into account.
Failure to comply with these instructions could result in death or serious injury.
