32). SG4 Fieldbus light curtains have no safety outputs (OSSDs). Instead they perform an otpical scan and send the result to a PLC via the Ethernet POWERLINK by means of the openSAFETY protocol. As soon as an object, or a limb or the operator’s body accidentally interrupts one or some of the infrared beams sent by the emitter, the...
As the required knowledge may not be completely included in this manual, we suggest the customer to contact Datalogic Technical Service for any necessary information relative to the functioning of the light curtains and the safety rules that regulate the correct installation (cfr. USER INTERFACE AND DIAGNOSTICS on page 46).
SG4 FIELDBUS 1.3 HOW TO CHOOSE THE DEVICE There are at least three different main characteristics that should be considered when choosing a safety light curtain, after having evaluated the risk assessment. 1.3.1 Detection capability The detection capability (or resolution) of the device is the minimum diameter that an opaque object must have in order to obscure at least one of the beams that constitute the detection zone and to actuate the sensing device.
SG4 FIELDBUS 1.3.2 Height of the detection zone The controlled height is the height protected by the safety light curtain. Fig 2 - Detection Zone Models Controlled height Hp (mm) SG4-xx-015-OP-x SG4-xx-030-OP-x SG4-xx-045-OP-x SG4-xx-060-OP-x SG4-xx-075-OP-x SG4-xx-090-OP-x SG4-xx-105-OP-x 1050 SG4-xx-120-OP-x 1200...
SG4 FIELDBUS 1.3.3 Minimum installation distance The safety device must be positioned at a specific safety distance (Fig 3 - on page 11). This distance must ensure that the dangerous area cannot be reached before the dangerous motion of the machine has been stopped by the Safety Control System.
SG4 FIELDBUS When devices with > 40 mm resolution are used, the height of the top beam has to be ≥ 900 mm (H2) from machine supporting base while the height of the bottom beam has to be ≤ 300 mm (H1).
With finger, hand and body protection, the SG4 FIELDBUS models can be implemented in any application where standard safety light curtains are currently used, in a wide range of applications where control and protection of the access to dangerous zones is necessary.
SG4 FIELDBUS Example 1: Hazardous point protection on a automatic machine The operator positions the part and takes it back after machining. The operator must be protected against possible abrasions while working. The operator positions the products and takes them back after working and must be protected against possible harm by movable parts of the machine.
SG4 FIELDBUS Example 2: Fixed and floating blanking The blanking function is used when an object detected in a defined part of the detection zone must not cause an OFF state of the light curtains outputs. Fixed blanking is when the object must remain in a fixed position, with a given tolerance.
SG4 FIELDBUS 1.5 SAFETY INFORMATION For a correct and safe use of the safety light curtains, the following points must be observed: The stopping system of the machine must be electrically controlled. This control system must be able to stop the dangerous movement of the machine within the total machine stopping time T as per paragraph Minimum installation distance on page 10 and during all working cycle phases.
The presence of intense electromagnetic disturbances could affect correct operation of the device.This condition shall be carefully assessed with the advice of DATALOGIC Technical Service. The operating distance of the device can be reduced in presence of smog, fog or airborne dust.
SG4 FIELDBUS 2.2 GENERAL INFORMATION ON DEVICE POSITIONING The safety light curtain should be carefully positioned in order to provide the necessary protection. Access to the dangerous area must only be possible by passing through the protecting safety light beams.
SG4 FIELDBUS 2.2.1 Minimum distance from reflecting surfaces Reflecting surfaces placed near the light beams of the safety device (over, under or laterally) can cause passive reflections. These reflections can affect the recognition of an object inside the controlled area. Moreover, if the RX receiver detects a secondary beam (reflected by the side-reflecting surface) the object might not be detected, even if the object interrupts the main beam.
SG4 FIELDBUS for ESPE Type 4 EAA = 5° ( = ± 2.5°) Fig 12 - Minimum distance from reflective surface The formula to get Dsr is the following: For ESPE Type 4: Dsr (m) = 0.13 for operating distance < 3 m Dsr (m) = [0.5 x operating distance (m) x tan 5°]...
SG4 FIELDBUS 2.2.2 Distance between homologous devices The following graphic shows the distance from the interfering devices (Ddo) according to the operating distance (Ddo) of the couple ( TXA – RXA ). If different safety devices have to be installed in adjacent areas, the emitter of one device must not interfere dangerously with the receiver of the other device.
SG4 FIELDBUS The following table shows, for convenience, the values of the minimum installation distances relative to some operating distances: Operating distance (m) Minimum installation distance (m) The interfering device (TXB) must be positioned at the same Ddo distance, calculated as shown above, even if closer to TXA respect to RXA.
SG4 FIELDBUS 2.2.3 Emitter and Receiver Orientation The two units shall be assembled parallel each other, with the beams arranged at right angles with the emission and receiving surface, and with the connectors pointing to the same direction. The configurations shown in the figure must be avoided:...
The alignment of the emitter and the receiver can be a very critical operation when deviating mirrors are used. Even very small displacements of the mirror is enough to lose alignment. The use of the DATALOGIC laser pointer accessory is recommended under these conditions.
SG4 FIELDBUS 2.2.5 Controls after first installation The control operations to carry-out after the first installation and before machine start-up are listed hereinafter. The controls must be carried-out by qualified personnel, either directly or under the strict supervision of the person in charge of machinery Safety.
3 brackets, the third one as an additional support in the middle. 3.1 FIXING WITH “L” BRACKETS “L” metal brackets are included with all SG4 FIELDBUS models. They allow product installation where no alignment adjustment is needed.

SG4 FIELDBUS 3.3 ANTI-VIBRATION SUPPORTS In case of applications with particularly strong vibrations, vibration dampers together with standard or rotating mounting brackets are recommended to reduce the impact of the vibrations (cfr.ACCESSORIES on page 57). Fig 23 - Anti-vibration supports with standard brackets...
SG4 FIELDBUS 4 ELECTRICAL CONNECTIONS 4.1 PIN-OUT AND CONFIGURATION PIN CONNECTION 4.1.1 Receiver (RX) Fig 24 - Receiver unit connectors placement For the receiver an M8 4-pin male connector is used for power supply, while two M12 D-coded female Ethernet connectors provides dual port Ethernet POWERLINK CN Node connection.
SG4 FIELDBUS POWERLINK (transmission technology, cable specification) Safety instrumented openSAFETY communication is embedded in the POWERLINK standard protocol and transmitted via the same network. S/UTP Cat5e must be used for transmission according to the 100Base-TX Fast Ethernet standard (overall shield with 2 x 2 twisted pair unshielded copper wires).
SG4 FIELDBUS 4.2 NOTES ON CONNECTIONS For the correct operation of the safety light curtains, the following precautions regarding the electrical connections have to be respected: Do not place connection cables in contact with or near high-voltage cables and/or cable undergoing high current variations (e.g.
SG4 FIELDBUS 5 ALIGNMENT PROCEDURE The alignment between the emitting and the receiving units is necessary to obtain the correct operation of the light curtain. A good alignment prevents outputs instability caused by dust or vibrations. The alignment is perfect if the optical axes of the first and the last emitting unit's beams coincide with the optical axes of the corresponding elements of the receiving unit.
SG4 FIELDBUS A LED user Interface provides indications about optic alignment toghether with Fieldbus connection status. LEDs are clearly identified through symbols or labels allowing their immediate reading, independently of bars directions; Find below a short description of Leds indications about optical alignment.
SG4 FIELDBUS 5.1 CORRECT ALIGNMENT PROCEDURE The light curtain alignment can be effected only after having completed the mechanical installation and the electrical connections as described above. Compare alignment results with those given in the following table: Check the green LED ( ) and the yellow LED ( ) on the TX unit.
