The two built-in safe static PNP outputs enable the barrier to be connected to the ADMIRAL SR safety modules or to a safety PLC or to another control system that satisfies the specific requirements and safety level of the application.
50 mm and 90 mm (protected height from 300 mm to 1800 mm) PROTECTION OF ARMS AND LEGS ADMIRAL is available also in the Multibeam configuration with the following lens pitch: – 500mm (2 beams), 400mm (3 beams), 300mm (4 beams).
ADMIRAL INSTALLATION Before installing the ADMIRAL safety system, make sure that: The safety system is only used as a stopping device and not as a machine control device. The machine control can be actuated electrically. All dangerous machine movements can be interrupted immediately. In particular, the machine stopping times must be known and, if necessary, measured.
ADMIRAL The recommended Cf factors are shown in the table below: ENVIRONMENTAL CONDITION CORRECTION FACTOR Cf 0.25 Steam 0.50 Dust 0.50 Dense fumes 0.25 If the device is installed in places that are subject to sudden changes in temperature, the appropriate precautions must be taken in order to prevent the formation of condensation on the lenses, which could have an adverse effect on monitoring.
ADMIRAL SAFETY DISTANCE CALCULATION The barrier must be installed at a distance that is greater than or equal to the minimum safety distance S, so that a dangerous point can only be reached after all hazardous machine movements have stopped (Figure 3).
ADMIRAL VERTICAL POSITION OF THE BARRIER 14 mm and 20 mm resolution models. These models are suitable for the protection of fingers. point of safety barrier danger 30 mm and 40 mm resolution models. These models are suitable for the protection of hands.
ADMIRAL Multibeam Models. point of danger These models are suitable for the protection of the entire body and must not be used to protect safety barrier arms or legs. The minimum safety distance S is calculated according to the following formula:...
ADMIRAL ELECTRICAL CONNECTIONS WARNINGS Before making the electrical connections, make sure that the supply voltage complies with that specified in the technical data sheet. Emitter and Receiver units must be supplied with 24Vdc±20% power. The external power supply must comply with the standard EN 60204-1.

The connection cables must follow a different route to that of the other power cables. MULTIPLE SYSTEMS When more than one ADMIRAL system is used, precautions must be taken to avoid optical interference between them: install units so that the beam emitted by the Emitter of one system can only be received by the relative Receiver.

ADMIRAL Figure 13 After installing the system, check whether any reflecting surfaces intercept the beams, first in the centre and then in the vicinity of the Emitter and Receiver. During these operations, the red LED on the Receiver should never, for any reason, switch off.
ADMIRAL USE OF DEFLECTION MIRRORS In order to protect or control areas that can be accessed from more than one side, in addition to the Emitter and Receiver, one or more deflection mirrors can be installed. These mirrors enable the optical beams generated by the Emitter to be deviated on one or more sides.
ADMIRAL MECHANICAL ASSEMBLY AND OPTIC ALIGNMENT The Emitter and the Receiver must be assembled opposite each other (at a distance specified in the technical data sheet). Use the fastening brackets and inserts supplied with the system to place the Emitter and the Receiver so that these are aligned and parallel to each other and with the connectors facing the same way.

The minimum duration of the TEST function must be 80 msec. OUTPUTS STATUS The ADMIRAL features two static PNP outputs on the Receiver, the status of which depends on the condition of the protected area. The maximum load allowed is 500mA at 24VDC, which corresponds to a resistive load of 48.
If the yellow weak signal LED on the Receiver switches on (LED 5 in Figure 16), check that: – the front surfaces are clean; – the Emitter and Receiver are aligned correctly. If the LED stays on, contact the ReeR service department. 8540484 • 01/09/2016 • Rev.13...
