• Mount the SafeZone Mini device such that it is not saturated by
incident sunlight. Do not position stroboscopic and fluorescent lights or
other strong light sources directly in the scan plane as these light sources
can affect the SafeZone Mini device in specific circumstances.
• If reasonable for the application, mark the protective field on the floor
(see EN 61496-1).
The following steps are necessary after mounting:
• Completing the electrical connections
page

• Configuration of the protective field
• Commissioning and checking of the installation

• Checking the function and safe shutdown
This type of protective device is suitable for machines and systems on which,
for example, a guard does not enclose a hazardous area entirely.
Figure 14 - Horizontal Stationary Application
For a horizontal stationary application determine the following:
• The protective field size to observe the necessary minimum distance.
• The height of the scan plane.
• The restart behavior.
• Measures to protect any areas that are not covered by the SafeZone Mini
device.
IMPORTANT Once you have defined the protective field size, mark the boundaries of the
protective field on the floor. In this way, you make the protective field
boundaries visible for the operator and ease subsequent testing of the
protective function.
