What is a blue line?
If you work with forklifts you have probably seen them pass by. The blue line technology. The blue line technology that projects lines onto the ground. People call these average 'safety lights' because they are meant to make the forklift's environment safer. To create a safe environment in your department store/warehouse, it is wise to equip your forklifts with blue line technology. The blue line helps where audible alarms stop. A well-marked blue line projects a clear blue line on the floor and alerts others to stay at a safe distance from the forklift. There is an option to mount the safety lights on the front or rear of the forklift. The blue line is specially made for indoor environments and gives off a clear light image.
Installing the safety light
It is useful to mount the safety light in a high, strategic place. In many cases, the roof of the forklift seems a good place with sufficient mounting and connection options. When mounting the safety light, make sure you adjust the blue line correctly. The warning effect works best when the blue line reaches the ground clear and does not fade. It is important to check when connecting the safety light that it has the right margin. We recommend an optimal projection area of 2.5 metres for safety lights.
The function of the blue line
The function of the blue line of the forklift safety light, is to demarcate the movement/directional area of the forklift. In the warehouse where it can often be noisy, warning sounds can drown out background noise. This can make a warning in the shape of LED light more pleasant and safer to operate in some cases.
