Abstract:
A safe optoelectronic sensor ( 10 ) is provided for securing a monitored zone ( 12 ) comprising at least one machine ( 26 ) that forms a hazard area ( 26 a - b ), wherein the sensor ( 10 ) has a light receiver ( 16 a - b ) for generating a received signal from received light from the monitored zone ( 12 ); a control and evaluation unit ( 24 ) for detecting object positions ( 28 ) in the monitored zone ( 12 ) from the received signal; and a safe output interface ( 30 ) for information acquired from the object positions ( 28 ). The control and evaluation unit ( 24 ) is here configured to determine the shortest distance between the hazard area ( 26 a - b ) and object positions ( 28 ) and to provide it at the safe output interface ( 30 ).

Claim (Index 9):
The safe optoelectronic sensor in accordance with  claim 8 , wherein the control and evaluation unit is configured to define hazard areas in the form of at least one sphere covering the machine.
