  • Page 6: Package Content

    Specialised knowledge of safety issues is required to integrate a safety light curtain correctly in a plant. PILZ’s technical customer service team is available to provide any information you need regarding the functionality of the PSEN op2H-A safety light curtains and the safety regulations concerning correct installation.
  • Page 7: Guidelines For Selecting The Protective Device

    OPERATING MANUAL PSEN op2H-A series 1.2 Guidelines for selecting the protective device Once the hazards have been assessed appropriately, there are at least three essential features to consider when selecting a safety light curtain: 1.2.1 Resolution The device’s resolution is understood to be the minimum size that an opaque object must be to safely interrupt at least one of the beams that form the area of the protected field.
  • Page 8: Height Of Protected Field

    OPERATING MANUAL PSEN op2H-A series 1.2.2 Height of protected field The height of the protected field is understood to be the height protected by the safety light curtain. Fig. 2 – Height of protected field Protected field Height of protected...

    OPERATING MANUAL PSEN op2H-A series PSEN op2H-A-30-165/1 1650 PSEN op2H-A-30-180/1 1800 1.2.3 Minimum safety distance The protective device must be positioned at a specific safety distance (Fig. 3), which guarantees that the operator cannot reach the danger zone until the hazardous machine movement has come to a standstill by triggering the light curtain.
  • Page 10 OPERATING MANUAL PSEN op2H-A series The safety distance is calculated using the following formula: S = K (t1 + t2) + C Therefore: Minimum safety distance in mm Speed of the object (limb or body) approaching the danger zone in mm/s Light curtain’s response time in seconds (see Chapter 11)
  • Page 11 OPERATING MANUAL PSEN op2H-A series Application examples This example is based on a light curtain with a height = 600 mm. To calculate the distance of the device from the light curtain in a vertical position, the following formula is applied:...
  • Page 12: Typical Application Areas

    OPERATING MANUAL PSEN op2H-A series 1.3 Typical application areas Example 1: Protecting the operating area on drilling machines The operator inserts the workpiece and removes it after machining. The operator must be protected from injury during the machining process. Solution: The safety light curtain PSEN op2H-A is particularly suitable for this application, as the device needs to be installed directly on the machine.
  • Page 13: Safety Information

    Benefits: The small dimensions of the light curtain with no dead zones guarantees maximum flexibility during installation, as it can be adapted to the machine dimensions. 1.4 Safety information To use the safety light curtains in the PSEN op2H-A series safely and correctly, the following information must be considered: •...
  • Page 14: Installation

    PSEN op2H-A series OPERATING MANUAL 2 INSTALLATION 2.1 Precautions to be taken during selection and installation of a light curtain Ensure that the safety level guaranteed by the PSEN op2H-A (Type 2) complies with the actual risk assessment of the machine to be monitored, as well as the level defined by the standard EN 13849.
  • Page 15: General Information On Positioning The Device

    PSEN op2H-A series OPERATING MANUAL 2.2 General information on positioning the device Special care should be taken when positioning the safety light curtain to ensure it provides efficient protection. The device must be installed so that the danger zone cannot be accessed without interrupting the protected field.
  • Page 16: Minimum Distance From Reflective Surfaces

    PSEN op2H-A series OPERATING MANUAL Fig. 7 Fig. 8 2.2.1 Minimum distance from reflective surfaces Reflective surfaces close to the beams emitted from the protective device (whether from above, below or from the side) can cause passive reflections. These passive reflections can adversely affect how the object is detected within the protected area.
  • Page 17: Distances Between Identical Light Curtains

    PSEN op2H-A series OPERATING MANUAL This minimum distance depends on the following factors: • The distance between the transmitter (TX) and receiver (RX) • The actual opening angle of the light curtain; in particular: when Type 2 light curtain = 10° (α = ± 5°) The illustration in Fig.
  • Page 18 PSEN op2H-A series OPERATING MANUAL The following graphic shows the distance from the interfering devices (D ), based on the operating range (D ) of the pair (TX A – RX A).

  • Page 30: Alignment

    OPERATING MANUAL PSEN op2H-A series 5 ALIGNMENT The transmitter and receiver must be aligned to ensure the device operates correctly. Good alignment prevents the light curtain switching incorrectly due to dust or vibration. The optimum alignment is achieved when the optical axes of the first and last beam from the transmitter coincide with the optical axes of the corresponding elements on the receiver.
  • Page 31 OPERATING MANUAL PSEN op2H-A series A. Hold the receiver in a stable position and align the transmitter until the yellow SYNC1 LED goes out. This state confirms that the first synchronisation beam has been aligned. B. Rotate the transmitter around the axis of the lower lens until the yellow SYNC2 LED goes out.

  • Page 42: Typical Muting Application And Sensor Connection

    OPERATING MANUAL PSEN op2H-A series 7.7.3 Typical muting application and sensor connection Safety sensor Fig. 40 – Typical muting application The diagram above shows a typical muting application: the protection device installed on the conveyor must allow the package to pass through but not the operator. The light curtain temporarily suspends its safety function when the sensors A11, A21, A12, A22 are activated in the correct sequence.
  • Page 43 OPERATING MANUAL PSEN op2H-A series Fig. 41 – T muting timings The sensors labelled A1/A2 are connected to the muting input (MUTING1) and the sensors labelled B1/B2 are connected to the MUTING2 input. Sensors ending in “1” are on the same side of the light curtain and therefore on the opposite side to the sensors ending in “2”.
  • Page 44 OPERATING MANUAL PSEN op2H-A series Fig. 42 – T-Muting connection L-Muting With L-muting, the light curtain is muted if the input signals switch to 24 V DC in accordance with a certain sequence: MUTING1 must be activated first; only then can MUTING2 be activated.
  • Page 45 OPERATING MANUAL PSEN op2H-A series “V” indicates a constant velocity. As a result, “d1” can be calculated in accordance with the following formula: d1 [cm] = V [m/s] * T12 [s] * 100 Fig. 44 – L-Muting connection BCM configuration: Muting direction...
  • Page 46: Muting Timeout

    OPERATING MANUAL PSEN op2H-A series 7.7.5 Muting timeout The muting timeout describes the time for the maximum duration of the muting function; once the timeout has elapsed, muting is ended. The user has the option to set this time. He can select a timeout to be 10 minutes or infinite; "infinite" means that the muting timeout may potentially never end: as long as the muting conditions are present, the muting function will be maintained.
  • Page 47: Partial Muting

    OPERATING MANUAL PSEN op2H-A series 7.7.6 Partial muting The muting type can be configured: total or partial muting. Partial muting can prove useful when the user wishes to limit the effects of the muting function exclusively to the selected zones. Each of the zone A-D includes a quarter of the light curtain‘s length. With a light curtain with a length of 40 cm, this is 15 cm.
  • Page 48: Override Mode

    OPERATING MANUAL PSEN op2H-A series The condition for the override is that the light curtain must be in a SAFE STATE and at least one muting sensor must have been interrupted. If this condition is met, the user interface shows “override call status” and both the red LED on the OSSDs and the LEDs for the alignment function flash.
  • Page 49 OPERATING MANUAL PSEN op2H-A series • Activated by edge: When the contacts are closed, the override remains activated until at least one muting sensor has been interrupted. In this case, the override status is also maintained if the override contacts are opened. The device switches the override status if any of the following events occurs: −...
