4.6 Mounting steps
Figure 40: Prevent crawling beneath, standing behind, climbing over
The origin of the scan plane is 63 mm above the bottom edge of the
SafeZone safety laser scanner. If you mount the SafeZone safety laser
scanner using mounting kit 3, then the origin of the scan plane is 102 mm
above the bottom edge of mounting kit 3 (see Section 11.5.3 “Scan plane
origin” on page 51).
There are four possible ways of mounting the SafeZone safety laser
scanner:
• Direct mounting without mounting kit
• Mounting with mounting kit 1
• Mounting with mounting kit 1 and 2
• Mounting with mounting kit 1, 2, and 3
The mounting kits build one on another. For mounting with kit 2 you will
therefore also need kit 1. For fixing with mounting kit 3 you will therefore
also need mounting kits 1 and 2. You will find the part numbers for the
mounting kits in Section 12.2 “Accessories and replacement parts” on page
53.
Direct mounting
The SafeZone safety laser scanner has four threaded holes M6 x 8 on its
rear face. Using these holes you can directly mount the SafeZone safety
laser scanner by drilling through the mounting surface from the rear.

4.6.2 Mounting with mounting kit 1
With the aid of mounting kit 1 you can mount the SafeZone safety laser
scanner indirectly on the mounting surface. This is always necessary if
you cannot drill through the mounting surface from the rear.

IMPORTANT Special features to note during
mounting:
Mount the SafeZone safety laser
scanner such that it is protected from
moisture, dirt and damage.
Ensure that the front screen field of
view is not restricted.
Mount the scanner such that the
indicators are easy to see.
Always mount the SafeZone safety laser
scanner such that you can plug in and
remove the system connection.
Avoid excessive shock and vibration
loading on the safety laser scanner.
On applications that suffer from heavy
vibration, prevent the mounting
screws from coming loose using screw
locking devices.
Regularly check the tightness of the
mounting screws.
Prevent personnel from being able to
crawl beneath, stand behind or climb
over the protective safety field by
means of appropriate mounting of the
SafeZone safety laser scanner.
IMPORTANT Observe the maximum torque of the
fastening hardware for the SafeZone
M6 on rear = 12 km max
M8 on side = 16 km max
Recommendation Use mounting kit 1. This will make the
device easier to remove.
