3.2.4 Perimeter guarding: SIMATIC FS400 3RG7845 Light Grid with 2, 3 or 4
beams
Fig. 3.2-4:
SIMATIC FS400 3RG7845 light grid with two deflecting mirror columns
3.2.4.1
Ranges depend on the number of deflections
With each beam deflection (via deflecting mirror columns) the maximum range of 70 m,
which is specified for an arrangement without deflections, is reduced:
Number of deflections
Maximum range [m]
Table 3.2-1:
The maximum range between transmitter and 1st deflecting mirror column is 7 m.
WARNING
For project planning the system please observe the information on minimum distances
to reflective surfaces with the use of deflecting mirror columns in Chapter 6.1.5.1.
