Proximity detection module

The Hetronic RF proximity detection module creates a zone in which the user may or may not operate. The module measures the distance to the zone very accurately. So you can determine the behavior of the Hetronic system based on its position relative to the machine. When the operator does stand at a safe distance, this will be indicated in green on the transmitter. When the operator is in the red area, the Hetronic system can act on this by no longer allowing certain functions or by forcing slower speeds of functions to be operated. There are many ways to set desired safety measures. You can set the zone from 0 meters to 10 meters. The module measures the distance to the zone very accurately.

Some examples:

  1. To protect the user, the user can only perform certain functions when he is at least 5 meters from the machine
  2. If the user stands more than 10 meters from the machine, all functions may only operate at half speed
  3. When driving away, an alarm sounds if the transmitter is not in the cab, this prevents the user from forgetting the transmitter.
