Unmonitored Areas
—Mounting the SX on the mobile vehicle must not create unmonitored areas between the Safety Zone
and the vehicle, such that the SX cannot respond to an object with a cross-section of 70 mm or more. Unmonitored areas on
a mobile vehicle can be prevented by:
•
Design/contour of the mobile vehicle
•
Position of the Scanner
•
Mounting the Scanner recessed within the vehicle
•
Mounting the Scanner under a physical guard or overhanging parts of frame
•
Using supplemental safeguarding, such as bumper or edge switches
•
Using mechanical barriers to prevent access
3.10.2 Mounting the Scanner Directly to a Surface
The device has two M5 threaded holes on each side. For direct mounting, use both M5 threaded holes on a given side,
taking into account the following values:
•
M5 on the back (tightening torque of 2.3 to 5.5 N·m), maximum depth of thread engagement 9.5 mm
•
M5 on the side (tightening torque of 2.3 to 3 N·m), maximum depth of thread engagement 8 mm
Important:
For direct mounting on the sides, if the wall or panel obstructs the output window, this plane
cannot be used for safety zone monitoring. The safety zone must adhere to the minimum distance to wall
value.
Figure 33. Mounting the scanner directly to a surface
The M5 UNI 5933 screws used for mounting the brackets to a wall are not supplied in the bracket mounting kits; they must be
supplied by the user.
If the direct mounting procedure to the back is chosen, it is not possible to add the protection bracket to the device.
