Safety Mat Installation

On Floor Installation

If the safety mat is installed on the floor, EN 1760-1 European standard requires mandatory
use of edge trim all around the accessible periphery of the sensing zone. ANSI states that "...
the mat should be fixed in place in such a manner so as to prevent easy relocation or removal
by the operator or other unauthorized personnel." (ANSI B11.19-1990) These edges prevent
people from stumbling over the safety mat and keep the mat in position. Edge trim is
delivered as 3 m (9.84 ft) strips and must be cut to length based on application requirements.
Edges must be cut so the fiber optic connectors and cables can be easily installed. Ensure
the fiber optic cable is not trapped along the cable duct. A gap of 1.5 mm (0.06 in) shall be
between the safety mat and the trim edge to avoid any edge stress. See figure 2-12 below.
IMPROPER USE OF THE FF-SM SERIES SAFETY MAT
• The 30 kg sensitivity of the FF-SM Series safety mats is suitable for the detection of adults
weighing more than 35 kg according to the EN1760-1 European standard.
• Do NOT use FF-SM Series safety mats on public places where Children may have to be
detected.
• Use of an additional protective sheet laid on the safety mat (sensor) surface is forbidden
since it may alter the 30 kg sensitivity.
Failure to comply with these instructions will result in death or serious injury.
Before cutting the edge trim, add 3 mm (0.12 in) to the width and length dimensions of the
mat to obtain the correct trim dimensions. This additional length is to accommodate for the
1.5 mm (0.06 in) gap needed to avoid any stress on the mat edge.

Double face adhesive tape (TESA Ref. 4952) may be used to affix the safety mat to the
