Figure 12: Preventing mutual interference from system
1 and system 2
The infrared light beams of the sender of system1 can interfere with the receiver of
system2. This can disrupt the protective function of system2. This would mean that
the operator is at risk.
Important information
DANGER
H
azard due to lack of effectiveness of the protective device
Systems of safety light curtains in close proximity to each other can mutually interfere
with each other.
b
Use appropriate measures to prevent systems in close proximity from interfering
with each other.
NOTE
The safety light curtain uses a diagnostic function to check whether suitable measures
were taken to protect systems in close proximity to each other against interference. If
the safety light curtain detects an unsuitable installation situation, it switches to the
interlocking state.
Preventing interference between systems in close proximity to each other
T
he following measures prevent interference from systems in close proximity:
•
Reversed direction of transmission for neighboring systems of the same type
•
Sufficient distance between two systems of the same type with the same direction
of transmission
•
Optically opaque partitions (always required if another safety light curtain is instal‐
led next to the deTec4 Core Vibes safety light curtain)

4.3.4.1 Using reversed direction of transmission
Using reversed direction of transmission
T
he direction of transmission of the system 2 can be changed during mounting by
switching the positions of the sender and receiver. With reversed direction of mounting,
the receiver 2 is not affected by the infrared light from the sender 1.
