SG2 EXTENDED 1.4 HOW TO CHOOSE THE DEVICE There are at least three different main characteristics that should be considered when choosing a safety light curtain, after having evaluated the risk assessment. 1.4.1 Detection capability The detection capability (or resolution) of the device is the minimum diameter that an opaque object must have in order to obscure at least one of the beams that constitute the detection zone and to actuate the sensing device.
Page 10
SG2 EXTENDED 1.4.2 Height of the detection zone The controlled height is the height protected by the safety light curtain. Fig 2 - Detection Zone Controlled height Model 30mm Model 50mm Model 90mm Hp (mm) SG2-30-015-OO-E-C SG2-30-030-OO-E-C SG2-50-030-OO-E-C SG2-90-030-OO-E-C SG2-30-045-OO-E-C...
Page 11
SG2 EXTENDED 1.4.3 Minimum installation distance The safety device must be positioned at a specific safety distance (Fig 3 - page 11). This distance must ensure that the dangerous area cannot be reached before the dangerous motion of the machine has been stopped by the Safety Control System.
Page 12
SG2 EXTENDED When devices with > 40 mm resolution are used, the height of the top beam has to be ≥ 900 mm (H2) from machine supporting base while the height of the bottom beam has to be ≤ 300 mm (H1).
Page 13
SG2 EXTENDED Practical examples Let's suppose to have a light curtain with height = 600 mm To calculate the distance of the device from the ESPE, in a vertical position, the following formula is used: S = K*T + C where: = Minimum safety distance in mm.
Page 14
SG2 EXTENDED 1.5 TYPICAL APPLICATIONS The safety light curtains of the SG series are used in all automation fields where the control and protection of the access to dangerous areas are necessary. In particular, they are used to stop the moving of mechanical parts in: •...
Page 15
SG2 EXTENDED Example 2: Cooling and air conditioning systems Cooling and air conditioning systems, as well as automotive equipment and components, are checked inside a machine to detect possible leaks using a helium mass spectrometer. The point where these parts are positioned inside the measuring chamber, requires a Type 2 protection ensuring space reduction and safe access to the protected area.
Page 16
SG2 EXTENDED 1.6 SAFETY INFORMATION For a correct and safe use of the safety light curtains, the following points must be observed: • The stopping system of the machine must be electrically controlled. • This control system must be able to stop the dangerous movement of the machine within the total machine stopping time T as per paragraph Minimum installation distance page 11 and during all working cycle phases.
Page 17
SG2 EXTENDED 2 INSTALLATION 2.1 PRECAUTIONS TO BE OBSERVED FOR THE CHOICE AND INSTALLATION Make sure that the protection level assured by the light curtain device is compatible with the real danger level of the machine to be controlled, according to EN ISO 13849-1: 2015 or EN 62061:2005/A2: 2015.
Page 18
SG2 EXTENDED 2.2 GENERAL INFORMATION ON DEVICE POSITIONING The safety light curtain should be carefully positioned in order to provide the necessary protection. Access to the dangerous area must only be possible by passing through the protecting safety light beams.
Page 19
SG2 EXTENDED 2.2.1 Minimum distance from reflecting surfaces Reflecting surfaces placed near the light beams of the safety device (over, under or laterally) can cause passive reflections. These reflections can affect the recognition of an object inside the controlled area. Moreover, if the RX receiver detects a secondary beam (reflected by the side-reflecting surface) the object might not be detected, even if the object interrupts the main beam.
Page 20
SG2 EXTENDED Diagram of shows the minimum distance from the reflecting surface (Dsr), based on the operating distance: Fig 13 - Minimum distance from reflective surface The formula to get Dsr is the following: For ESPE Type 2: Dsr (m) = 0.27 for operating distance <...
