SG BODY REFLECTOR MUTING
As soon as an object or the operator's body accidentally interrupts one or some of the infrared
beams sent by the emitter, the receiver immediately opens the OSSD outputs and blocks the
MPCE machine (if correctly connected to the OSSD).
Some parts or sections of this manual containing important information for the user or installing operator are
preceded by a note:
Notes and detailed descriptions about particular characteristics of the safety devices in order to
better explain their functioning.
Special instructions regarding the installation process.
The information provided in the paragraphs following this symbol is very important for safety and
may prevent accidents.
Always read this information accurately and carefully follow the advice to the letter
This manual contains all the information necessary for the selection and operation of the safety devices.
However, specialized knowledge not included in this technical description is required for the planning and
implementation of a safety light curtain on a power-driven machine. 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 SG BODY light curtains and the safety rules that
regulate the correct installation (see section 9 – "PERIODICAL MAINTENANCE AND WARRANTY").
2.2 APPEARANCE AND INTERFACE
2.2.1 Package contents
Package contains the following objects:
•
Active unit
•
SG BODY quick installation guide
•
Checklist and periodical maintenance schedule
2.3 MAIN FUNCTIONS AND NEW FEATURES
With respect to SE4-R series, the SG BODY safety light curtain series present new important features:
•
No dead zone
•
New engineering of passive unit
•
Shorter response time (see section 11 – "TECHNICAL DATA")
•
Muting function customization
•
Override function customization
2.4 HOW TO CHOOSE THE DEVICE
The SG BODY series light curtains efficiently satisfy all applications that require the Muting function thanks to
pre-assembled, pre-cabled and pre-aligned Muting sensors.
T-shaped models are available with integrated Muting sensors for bidirectional Muting, L-shaped models for
unidirectional Muting and linear models without integrated Muting sensors are available.
By means of Muting arms accessories, linear models can be converted into T-shaped models and L-shaped
models.
The muting arms, available in "T" and "L" versions, take advantage of retro-reflex sensors technology. This
version covers a maximum operating distance of light curtain of 3 m.
The integrated Muting solution with "L" configuration facilitates sensor installation and suits applications
requiring one-way object passage direction.
The integrated Muting solution with "T" configuration facilitates sensor installation and is ideal for applications
requiring a bidirectional object passage movement.
The linear models, presenting a specific connector allowing easy connection of the Muting sensors, are
recommended for difficult or particular applications.
Sensor positioning has to be carried out by the operator, respecting the precautions listed in the following
chapters.
