  • Page 3: General Observations

    GENERAL OBSERVATIONS The ARGOLUX AS curtain is a multibeam optoelectronic protective device designed to secure operators working on dangerous machines in an industrial environment. The ARGOLUX AS system is made up of an emitter, a receiver and a separate control unit. The 3 units are combined to provide a type 2 fail-safe system as defined by the EN 61496-1 and prEN 61496-2 («Safety of machinery - Electro-sensitive protective system»).

  • Page 4: Design And Operation

    The following are examples of machines where the ARGOLUX AS may be used: • Machinery for product handling such as conveyors, palletizing, collating machines; • Packaging and wrapping devices; • Automated assembly lines; • Automated warehousing. To control access all around a machine, the ARGOLUX AS curtain can be used with deflection mirrors to build a perimetric protection surrounding the dangerous area.
  • Page 5 The synchronisation between the emitting diodes and the receiver sensors is provided by an extra beam emitted by the receiver unit towards the emitter unit. This synchronisation beam delimits one side of the detection zone (see figure 1). Fig. 1 Fig.
