safety switch, and is attached to the receiver unit by a
mounting rail (Fig. 3).

In order to differentiate between people and materials,
additional sensor signals are required. Two or four sensors
can be connected for this purpose. The number of sensors is
determined by the geometry of the object being detected and
by the applicable safety requirements. The functionality of
testable sensors is automatically tested by the muting module
