Alert Statements
DANGER
Make sure that the machine can be controlled correctly and as
intended. Also make sure that the machine can be stopped
immediately at any time of the operation cycle without danger to
machine operators when the machine behavior does not meet
safety-related requirements. Otherwise, continued use of the
machine may result in serious injury or death.
Users
WARNING
The F3SG-PG must be installed, configured, and incorporated into a
machine control system by a sufficiently trained and qualified person.
An unqualified person may not be able to perform these operations
properly, which may cause a person to go undetected, resulting in
serious injury.
Machines
WARNING
Do not use this sensor for machines that cannot be stopped quickly
by electrical control. For example, do not use it for a pressing
machine that uses full-rotation clutch. Otherwise, the machine may
not stop before a person reaches the hazardous part, resulting in
serious injury.
To use the F3SG-PG in PSDI mode (initiation of cyclic operation by a
presence sensing device), you must configure an appropriate circuit
between the F3SG-PG and the machine. For details about PSDI,
refer to OSHA 1910.217, IEC 61496-1, and other relevant standards
and regulations.
Installation
WARNING
Make sure Responsible Person tests the operation of the F3SG-PG and
F39-SGIT-IL3 after installation to verify that the F3SG-PG and F39-SGIT-IL3
operate as intended. Make sure to stop the machine until the test is complete.
Unintended installation, wiring or function settings may cause a person to go
undetected, resulting in serious injury.
Make sure to install the F3SG-PG at the safety distance from the hazardous part
of the machine. Otherwise, the machine may not stop before a person reaches
the hazardous part, resulting in serious injury.
Install a protective structure so that the hazardous part of a machine can only be
reached by passing through the sensor's detection zone. If access to the
hazardous part by reaching over the detection zone of a vertically mounted
F3SG-PG cannot be excluded, the height of the detection zone and the safety
distance shall be determined in consideration of such a risk. Install the sensors
so that part of the person is always present in the detection zone when working
in a machine's hazardous zones. If a person is able to step into the hazardous
zone of a machine and remain behind the F3SG-PG's detection zone, configure
the system with Restart Interlock function. Failure to do so may result in serious
injury due to unexpected startup.
Install the reset switch in a location that provides a clear view of the entire
hazardous zone and where it cannot be activated from within the hazardous zone.
Install the pre-reset switch always in the hazardous zone and where it cannot be
activated from outside the hazardous zone.
The F3SG-PG cannot protect a person from an object flying from the hazardous
zone. Install protective cover(s) or fence(s).
The Muting and Override functions disable the safety functions of the device.
Especially setting the Muting Time Limit parameter to infinite may cause the
safety functions to be disabled for a long time. Install the F3SG-PG, muting
sensor and physical barrier and configure time settings for Muting and Override
so that an operator should not enter hazardous zone when the Muting and
Override are active.
Install muting sensors so that they can distinguish between the object that is
being allowed to pass through the detection zone and a person. If the Muting
function is activated by the detection of a person, the machine may not stop
operating, resulting in serious injury.
Muting lamps that indicate the state of the Muting and Override functions must be
installed where they are clearly visible to workers from all the operating positions.
Use two independent input devices for muting inputs. Failure to do so may
cause the MUTING state due to a single muting sensor's failure.
Install the switch to activate the Override function in a location that provides a
clear view of the entire hazardous zone and where it cannot be activated from
within the hazardous zone. Make sure that nobody is in the hazardous zone
before activating the Override function.
Make sure to connect an override cancel switch to the RESET line when using
the Override function. Otherwise, the OVERRIDE state may not be released by
the override cancel switch, resulting in serious injury.
When muting error occurs with workpiece blocking the F3SG-PG, there are two
methods to forcibly remove the workpiece.
1) Manual operation (with additional safety measure); or
2) Override function (Override at Normal Operation / Override upon Startup)
Only one of the methods, either 1) or 2) must be used.
If they are used at the same time, the Override may be activated at an
unexpected timing.
Install the F3SG-PG so that it is not affected by reflective surfaces.
Failure to do so may hinder detection, resulting in serious injury.
When using more than one set of F3SG-PG's in adjacent areas, the emitter of
one F3SG-PG may interfere with the receiver of the other, causing the safety
functions to stop working properly. Install, configure and maintain them so that
mutual interference does not occur.
To change the response time, calculate the safety distance based on the
setting. Otherwise, the machine may not stop before a person reaches the
hazardous part, resulting in serious injury.
Do not use the F3SG-PG with
mirrors in a retro-reflective
Mirror
configuration.
Doing so may hinder detection.
It is possible to use mirrors to alter
Mirror
the detection zone to a 90-degree
angle.

retro-reflection detection zone bent at 90°
Wiring
WARNING
When using the PNP output, connect the load between the output and 0 V line.
When using the NPN output, connect the load between the output and +24 VDC
line. Connecting the load between the output and a different power supply line
from the above line will result in a dangerous condition because the operation
mode of safety outputs are reversed to "Dark-ON".
When using the PNP output, do not ground +24 VDC line. When using the NPN
output, do not ground 0 V line. Otherwise, a ground fault may turn the safety
outputs ON, resulting in a failure of stopping the machine.
Configure the system by using the optimal number of safety outputs that satisfy
the requirements of the necessary safety category.
Do not connect each line of the F3SG-PG to a DC power supply of higher than
24 VDC+20%. Also, do not connect it to an AC power supply. Failure to do so
may result in electric shock.
Make sure to perform wiring while the power supply is OFF.
Do not use the output signal of the auxiliary output or IO-Link output for safety
applications. Failure to do so may result in serious injury when the F3SG-PG fails.
For the F3SG-PG to comply with IEC 61496-1 and UL 508, the DC power
supply unit must satisfy all of the following conditions:
• The DC power supply operates within the rated power voltage (24 VDC ± 20%).
• The DC power supply has tolerance against the total rated current of devices if it is
connected to multiple devices.
• The DC power supply complies with EMC directives (industrial environment).
• Double or reinforced insulation is applied between the primary and secondary circuits.
• The DC power supply has an automatic recovery type of overcurrent protection
characteristics.
• Output holding time is 20 ms or longer.
• The DC power supply satisfies output characteristic requirements for class 2 circuit or
limited voltage current circuit defined by UL 508.
• The DC power supply complies with laws and regulations, regarding EMC and
electrical equipment safety, of the country or region where the F3SG-PG is used.
(For example, in EU, the power supply must comply with the EMC Directive and the
Low Voltage Directive.)
Double or reinforced insulation from hazardous voltage must be applied to all
input and output lines. Failure to do so may result in electric shock.
Extension of the cable must be within a specified length.
If it isn't, safety functions may not work properly, resulting in danger.
