The safety laser scanner scans the area in front of an automated guided vehicle system to
prevent collisions. When an object or a person is detected, the safety laser scanner sends
a signal to the automated guided vehicle system.
}
When the warning zone is violated, an alarm of the automated guided vehicle system can
be triggered. The person can leave the route or remove the object from the route.
}
When the protective zone is violated, a stop of the automated guided vehicle is triggered.
}
The size of the protective zone is calculated from the hazard source, not from the dis-
tance to the safety laser scanner.

Reference outline monitoring
For vertical applications, national and international standards recommend monitoring a ref-
erence outline.
The reference outline is configured during the first installation of PSEN sc M 3.0/5.5 08-12
series. The distances measured during configuration are used as reference values for mon-
itoring the reference outline.
