DO's & DON'Ts (for EN 12453 safeguarding level E-conformity)
Install the sensor at a mounting height of 35 - 45 cm.
If the barrier is only used by trucks, the mouting height
can be increased.
Make sure to place the detection field parallel to
the boom.
When using the safety, place the sensor just
behind the barrier. This way the safety field
protects the area around the boom.
