 The
S 3000 is an optical sensor designed for two-dimensional scanning
of detection areas using infrared laser beams. The S 3000 operates
according to the principle of time-of-flight measurement. It emits
very short light pulses. An "electric timer" operates at
the same time. When the light encounters an object, the light is reflected
and received by the safety laser scanner. The S 3000 determines distance
from the object during the time elapsedfrom emission to reception.
A Standard rotation mirror within the S 3000 deflects light impulses
to a 190° scanning field. Using the mirror rotation angle definition,
the S 3000 identifies the object distance and direction, the safety
laser scanner estblishes the object's exact position.
EXTERNAL DEVICE MONITORING
The external device monitoring verifies if the contactors are actually
disabled at the time of the safety device intervention.
RESTART INTERLOCK
The machine - or vehicle hazard stops - as soon as an object enters
the protected field. OSSDs (Object Signal Switch Device) are enabled
only after the operator activates the reset and/or restart actuating
device.
MULTIPLE EVALUATION
With a multiple evaluation, objects need to be detected by several
scans before the S 3000 disables the OSSD. This reduces the chance
of turning off the equipment due to objects falling inside the scan
level, like spatter or other particles.
