  • Page 7: Safety Warnings

    If the equipment is used in a manner not specified by Lasermet, the protection provided by the equipment may be impaired.
  • Page 8: Summary Of Evaluation Of Compliance To En Iso 13849-1:2015

    Summary of Evaluation of Compliance to EN ISO 13849-1:2015 Note that this summary relates to the ICS-6 controller only. To achieve a complete system performance level ‘e’ the system must be wired as described in this manual using suitably rated door sensors and measures taken to minimise the effects of common cause failures in the sensors and wiring which may be connected to the unit.
  • Page 9: Installation

    Care should be taken in the running of conduits that the proposed entry position in the ICS-6 can be accommodated and that the front cover of the ICS-6 can be opened.
  • Page 10: Wiring

    The ICS-6 is a versatile interlock system and there are a variety of ways in which it can be used. Be sure you know which configuration you require before you attempt to wire the unit. If you require further assistance, please call Lasermet technical help.
  • Page 11: Ics-6-24 (24Vdc)

    5.2.1 Mechanical Interlock Switches Up to four door interlock switches may be directly wired to the ICS-6. By making external connections, more switches can be added and arranged in groups for indication purposes. The interlock switches are wired to the terminals labelled INTERLOCK 1 through to INTERLOCK 4.
  • Page 12 Interlock switches need to be fitted to both, and the two doors can then be wired together so that a single monitor indication light will illuminate on the front panel of the ICS-6 if either of the doors is open. The switches in a group should be wired with their safety contacts in series.
  • Page 13 This relies on successful operation of the door switch and contact failures are not detected. The ICS-6 mismatch detector should be disabled if this arrangement is used. The example shows a system with two doors.
  • Page 14: Coded Magnetic Interlock Switches

    The Lasermet IS-MDC-12 is a dual channel magnetic door switch. If the mismatch detector is used in the ICS-6, any single contact failure in the door switch will be detected and the laser inhibited. In this switch the red and blue wires are taken to the ‘A’ terminals and the black and white wires to the ‘B’...
  • Page 15: Master Control And Connection To Fire Alarm

    Master Control and Connection to Fire Alarm The ICS-6 has the option of being remotely ‘locked out’ by a remote master switch or a master interlock system. For a dual channel system required to perform to ISO13849 performance level ‘e’, the remote switch should have two contacts which close to enable the laser.
  • Page 16: Ics-6 Illuminated Sign Control Output

    Signs. These signs must not be connected to the mains supply. Option 1 One-way Illuminated Sign The warning sign will come on as soon as the mains switch of the ICS-6 is turned on. Option 2 One-way Illuminated Sign The warning sign will come on when the ‘Arm Laser’ button is pressed.
  • Page 17 Two-way Illuminated Warning Sign The first warning sign will come on when the ICS-6 mains switch is turned on. The first warning sign will go off and the second warning sign will come on when the ‘Arm Laser’ button is pressed. Note that in the case of the Lasermet Miniature Warning Sign, both indications are displayed in the same unit.
  • Page 18: Interlock Operator Output Contacts

    There is a 9-contact upgrade option should three contacts prove insufficient, please contact Lasermet or your local distributor if this is required. The wiring space is very constrained when the 9- contact board is fitted, and it is normally recommended that the deep-case option is also selected which increases the overall depth of the ICS-6 from 89mm to 145mm.
  • Page 19: Beam Shutters

    (12 VDC 0.8 A maximum or 24 VDC, 3 A maximum) The ICS-6 has a built-in DC supply for operating laser shutters and is able to provide both continuous and switched supplies using one of the Interlock Operator outputs. Several shutters of the same type may all be powered from one Interlock Operator contact, please contact Lasermet for details if required.
  • Page 20 LS-20 Shutter The LS-20 Shutter can use the above circuit set to 24VDC. However, it is recommended that the monitoring circuit shown below is included to allow the ICS-6 to monitor the shutter and to detect any faults. If using the LS-20 SIL3 twin shutter the circuit below must be used to achieve the SIL3 / PL ‘e’ rating.
  • Page 21 ICS-6 Instruction Manual The LS-20 Shutter has its own distribution socket. The wiring connections inside the distribution box are shown below: CONTROL +24V SUPPLY MONITOR +24V SUPPLY REMOTE OPEN 24V INPUT OPEN STATUS 24V OUTPUT CLOSED STATUS 24V OUTPUT MONITOR CONTACT 1 OPEN...
  • Page 22: Interlock Connectors

    Furthermore, some lasers also include one or two ‘laser safe’ contacts which can be monitored by the ICS-6. In this instance if either or both ‘laser safe’ contacts are not closed the ICS-6 will set illuminated warning signs to the danger indication and inhibit arming of the laser.
  • Page 23: Electro Magnetic Door Locks

    5.4.4 Electro Magnetic Door Locks Use only fail-safe door locks provided by Lasermet (electric door strikes or maglocks). These will prevent access to the room while the laser is on while always allowing people to enter or leave the room in the event of a power loss. In order to ensure that people can always enter or leave the room in the event of an emergency it will be necessary to put an emergency stop or break glass switch near each door.
  • Page 24 ICS-6 Instruction Manual Note that the total combined current available from the 24V and 12V outputs from the ICS-6 is 4A, and the maximum current from the 12V output is 1A, so whilst both shutters and door locks may be used at the same time, care should be taken not to exceed this rating in total.
  • Page 25: Override

    Ensure that the jumper link J6 ‘O/RIDE CTRL’ on the ICS-6 Main Circuit Board is closed across both pins so that the keypad can operate the Override circuit inside the ICS-6. The diagram below shows the circuit where a lock is provided on the door. If no lock is provided this part of the circuit may be omitted, and the keypad may be programmed not to activate the door relay and ‘Door Unlocked’...
  • Page 26: Override Switch With Timer

    The Override board must be fitted to the ICS-6 by inserting the male connector on the plug-in board into the female connector near the bottom of the main board of the ICS-6 on the back of the door. Align the hole in the Override board with the peg on the ICS-6 main board and insert the screw and washer to secure it in position.
  • Page 27: Override Switch Without Timer

    The third contact is connected between the terminal marked ‘O/R’ and the terminal marked ‘+24V’ on the ‘KEYPAD’ terminal block J7. An Override Timer Board must not be fitted to the ICS-6, and the link ‘J6 Override Control’ must be removed to prevent the non-overridden door contacts from being defeated.
  • Page 28: Override Alarm

    Override Alarm There is an audible Override alarm inside the ICS-6 which is enabled when the BUZZER CTRL link J4 is closed on the main PCB. There is also an audible alarm on the Override board (if fitted) which is enabled by closing link 10.

  • Page 30: Expansion Boards

    If the laser burns through the tile it is shut down before it burns through the enclosure. The fail-safe Interface is able to monitor up to 1000 tiles and the ICS-6 is able to automatically test the operation of the tiles and the interface each time the system is armed.
  • Page 31: Installing Expansion Boards

    6.2 Installing Expansion Boards It is possible to install one expansion board into a standard ICS-6, however the space for wiring is fairly restricted so a deep case option is available for ICS-6 which increases the depth of the unit from 89mm to 145mm, which gives ample space for three or four expansion boards.

  • Page 33: Mismatch Detector

    Mismatch Detector 7.1 Description The ICS-6 trips out and disables the laser when either of its two safety circuits opens. If all the door interlock and emergency stop switches have two contacts, one in each safety loop, then it is normal for both safety circuits to open more or less simultaneously.
  • Page 34: Clearing A Mismatch Fault Indication

    If the ICS-6 has been configured to permanently lock out, it can only be reset by opening the unit, turning on the power and pressing the ‘RESET’ button SW1 on the Control Board. This should only be undertaken by suitably qualified technicians once the fault has been identified and repaired as otherwise the unit will just lock out again.
  • Page 35: Remote Test And Reset

    The ‘test’ switch should have a contact which is normally closed, and which opens to perform the test. The ‘reset’ switch should have a contact which closes to reset the detector. Contact Lasermet or your local distributor for assistance if you wish to use these features. 01000-53-000...
  • Page 36: Led Indicators

    Please see the ‘Mismatch Detector’ section. ‘EXPN’ LEDs The ICS-6 may have one or more expansion boards fitted internally (see section 6), and the status of the board(s) is indicated. The LED’s are illuminated yellow if an expansion board has opened the ICS- 6 safety circuits.
  • Page 37 When the 'Safety Circuit Complete' LED has lit and the Arm Laser button has been pressed, the 'Laser Armed' LED will light orange to warn that the ICS-6 has enabled the laser. If the ‘Safety Circuit Complete’ LED is illuminated but the ‘Laser Armed’ LED does not illuminate when the Arm Laser button is pressed, this could indicate that the internal checking circuitry of the ICS-6 has detected a fault condition.
  • Page 38: Operation

    9.2 Resuming Operation after an Interlock Switch has been opened When any interlocked door is opened or the emergency stop button is activated, the ICS-6 will cut the power to the laser or the shutters. To resume laser operation: 1) Close all interlocked doors (where necessary). Note LED state on front panel.
  • Page 39: Using The Override

    The system will now go into override mode for a short time, and a buzzer will sound. Note. If any of the interlock switches are still open when the timed override expires, the ICS-6 will cut the power to the laser or shutters.
