    It must not be used with internal combustion engines. • The SIMATIC FS600 Laser Scanner is conceived for use inside enclosed spaces and with the operating parameters listed in the technical specifications (temperature, humidity, shock, vibration, etc.). Please refer to the list of parameters in Chapter 14.
  • Page 20: General Information Related To Determining Detection Zone Contours

    • Needle-shaped detection zone contours are not permitted, since they do not ensure any protective effect. For additional information, please refer to the SIMATIC FS600 Parameterization Software LS4soft user software (Chapter entitled “Definition of Detection Zones”). • Due to possible measurement errors, every detection zone has an additions area in which detection is not guaranteed under all conditions.
  • Page 21: Additional Safety Notes For Stationary Use

    • When calculating the safety distances, be sure to consider all delay times, such as the response time of the scanner, response time of the control elements, and braking times and/or stopping times of the machine/system or AGV! Variations in delay time caused by factors such as reduced braking power must also be taken into consideration.
  • Page 22: Additional Safety Notes For Mobile Use

    AGV while making curves must be considered when defining detection zones. • If the SIMATIC FS600 Laser Scanner is mounted on vehicles, the mounting (especially the angle of inclination), the vehicles' braking power, and if applicable, play in the vehicle guidance (the difference between the optimum and actual line of guidance) must be regularly checked in order to guarantee the reliability of detection.

    Access guarding by passage monitoring Access guarding by passage monitoring (whole body trip control) is a suitable method when the access to a machine or to a hazardous zone can be precisely defined in structural terms, and there is no other unprotected access to the area. It is best to mount the laser scanner above the passage in question, in vertical alignment.
