Intended use

The safety laser scanners in the PSEN sc L 3.0/5.5 08-12 series are electrosensitive pro-
tective equipment of ESPE type 3. They are used to protect personnel and systems. The
safety laser scanners are designed to
}
Safeguard the danger zone,
} Safeguard danger zones of automated guided vehicle systems (AGVS) and
}
Guard access within buildings.
The safety laser scanner may only be used for personal protection on machinery if
}
the hazardous state can be removed by the safety laser scanner and
}
the starting of the machine is controlled by the safety laser scanner and
}
the safety assessment prescribes no better detection capability than 30 mm, 40 mm, 50
mm, 70 mm, 150 mm.
The safety level PL d (Cat. 3)/SIL CL 2 is only achieved if
}
The safety outputs must be processed safety-related in 2-channel mode.
The machine or automated guided vehicle system (AGVS) can be restarted using a manual
or automatic restart.
}
It must not be possible to operate the pushbutton for manual restart from inside the
danger zone. The pushbutton must be located at a position from which there is a full, un-
obstructed view of the danger zone.
Prevent circumvention of the safety zone. This means that other electrosensitive protective
equipment and protective measures may be required in addition to the safety laser scanner.
These should be determined via a safety assessment based on the specific application
range and specific local conditions (e.g. official specifications).
Refer to IEC/TS 62046 to determine other necessary safeguards for securing the danger
zone.
Their application must fulfil the site's relevant national regulations (e. g. EN 60204-1,
NFPA 79:17-7).
