2D/3D Profile Sensors
3. For Your Safety
3.1 Use for Intended Purpose
The product is based on the following functional principle:
2D/3D Profile Sensors project a laser line (1) onto the object to be detected (2) and generate an accurate,
linearized height profile with an internal camera (3) which is set up at a triangulation angle (4).
Thanks to its uniform, open interface, the weCat3D series can be incorporated directly by a TCP/IP socket
protocol, a program library (available for Windows and Linux) or the GigE Vision standard without an addition-
al control unit. Alternatively, wenglor offers its own software packages for implementing your application.
Individualized selection from a great variety of working ranges, laser classes and light types (red and blue
light) ensures maximized flexibility for two and three-dimensional object detection.
The weCat3D range of sensors is subdivided into two performance classes: weCat3D MLSL and weCat3D
MLWL. Whereas the weCat3D MLSL with a compact design allows standard applications in the high-perfor-
mance range weCat3D MLWL stands for maximum performance .

2D/3D Profile Sensors
3.6.3 weCat and Extended Source
Sensors included in the weCat3D series use line lasers. A line laser is an extended source. As a result, the C6
factor (see IEC EN 60825-1:2014) must be taken into account when evaluating the laser class. Due to the fact
that C6is greater than or equal to 1, the maximum permissible exposure value (MPE) for thermic retinal haz-
ard is increased by a factor of C6, assuming that angular extension of the source (measured at the observer’s
eye) is greater than αmin, where αmin is equal to 1.5 mrad. And thus as compared with a collimated laser beam,
maximum output radiation can be higher for the same laser class.
