General General The SLS 78/R Single Beam Safety Device is an a type 4 active opto-electronic protective device (AOPD) in accordance with EN IEC 61496-1, EN IEC 61496-2 and ISO 13849-1, and is equipped with two safety relays (positive-driven contacts). A protective field of infrared beams is generated between the transmitter and receiver of the safety light beam device.
(e.g. EN ISO 14121, EN ISO 12100-1, ISO 13849-1, IEC 61508, EN 62061). The result of the risk assessment determines the required safety level of the safety sensor (see Table 2.1-1.). For mounting, operating and testing, document "SLS 78/R Single Beam Safety Light Barrier" as well as all applicable national and international standards, regulations, rules and directives must be observed.
Safety The following table shows the safety-related characteristic parameters of the Single Light Beam Safety Device SLS 78/R. Type in accordance with IEC/EN 61496 Type 4 Performance Level (PL) in accordance with PL e ISO 13849-1: 2008 Category in accordance with ISO 13849-1 Cat.

KG is not liable in the following cases: • safety sensor is not used as intended • safety notices are not adhered to •...
It applies for the SLS 78/R that people are only detected during the access; their presence in the danger zone, however, is not detected! If a person interrupts the light beam or if there is an AOPD fault, the safety sequential circuit must therefore go into safe interlock.
• Print and paper processing machinery • Plastics and rubbers industry • Wood processing industry machinery Warning! The SLS 78/R may never be used as the sole arm, hand or finger protection (e.g. on metal- processing presses). SLS 78/R Leuze electronic...

The approach speed (T) is set to 1600 mm/s, the delay time is 0.2 s. S = 1600 mm/s · 0.2 s + 850 mm S = 1170 mm The safety distance must therefore be at least 1170 mm. SLS 78/R Leuze electronic...
Protective field heights for SLS 78/R single beam safety devices for vertical access guarding With the installation of SLS 78/R single beam safety devices as access or area guarding, danger areas must not be accessible by crawling under, stepping over or reaching over the light beams.
Therefore a minimum distance “a” between the optical axis of the SLS 78/R and reflective surfaces, such as shiny machine parts or material containers, must be complied with. The greater the distance between transmitter and receiver, the greater the distance “a”...
The distances between transmitter and deflecting mirror and between receiver and deflecting mirror must not be less than 0.5 m.

Examples for the safe integration of the SLS 78/R in the machine control Various SLS 78/R connection options are possible. If the safety-related control system of the machine has the interlocking and monitoring functions required for the integration, such as “Start/restart interlock” and “Contactor monitoring", then the direct connection of the single beam safety device to the control system is possible.
Bild 7.0-1: Warning: Before putting the SLS 78/R into operation for the first time on a power-driven production machine, an experienced and commissioned person with suitable training must check the entire setup and the integration of the opto-electronic protective device into the machine control system.
For this, see also the diagram with minimum distances in chapter 5.7. 10. After the alignment has been completed the SLS 78/R must be fixed again. 11. After the alignment and initial operation work has been completed the proper functioning is checked using an object of at least 30 mm diameter at every point of the beam path between the transmitter and the receiver.
