Greater Resistance to
External Light Interference. Significantly Less Interference with Other
Sensors.
Operating Range of 3.5 m
and Hand Protection (Minimum Detectable Object: 25-mm Dia.)
-
Interference reduced both between Sensors of
the same type and Sensors of different types.
-
Setting Console optimizes light sensitivity
for specific ranges.
-
Ideal where installation space is limited.
-
Conforms to International Safety Standards.
-
Korean standard "S-mark" models are also
available.

New Emitter Mechanism Eliminates
Excessive Light
Conventional Models
Conventional models had an operating
range that was too long. This meant that they picked up light from
sensors in unexpected locations and they interfered with other
sensors.
F3SN-A[]SS Series
The operating range for the F3SN-A[]SS
Series is limited to 3.5 m as opposed to 10 m for conventional models.
This dramatically reduces the negative impact on adjacent light
curtains and surrounding photoelectric sensors even in applications
where parallel light curtains are installed for multiple devices. It
also eliminates additional work such as installing special wiring to
prevent interference.

Ideal Where
Installation Space Is Limited
Back-mounted
Connector Cable Models and Optional Right-angle Cables
Use back-mounted Connector Cable models
like the F3SN-A[]SS-02 and the F3SN-A[]SS-04 for installations where
space is a premium and where the dimensions at the bottom of the light
curtain are restricted. (The F3SN-A[]SS-04 also has a Connector Cable
on top for series connections.) In addition to conventional Straight
Connector Cables, we also have optional F39-JC[]E[] Right-angle
Connector Cables that connect on the left side or right side from the
lens surface for installations where very little room is left behind
the Light Curtain.

Integrated Control for Multiple
Light Curtains
We recommend using an
F3SX Safety Controller with the Light Curtains.
When two or more Light Curtains are used
to detect intrusion in a dangerous zone, the F3SX Safety Controller
can be used with them to easily create complex safety circuits.
Refer to the F3SX Safety Controllers
Catalog for specific product details.

Conforms to International Safety
Standards
The F3SN-A[]SS is a Type 4 sensor with a
category 4 rating. This means that it conforms to the highest
standards of safety for a Safety Light Curtain. The F3SN-A[]SS
conforms to all the following standards.
|
International standards |
IEC61496-1, IEC61496-2 |
|
EU and EN standards |
Machinery Directive, EMC Directive,
EN61496-1, and prEN61496-2 |
|
North American standards |
UL61496-1, UL61496-2, UL508, UL1998,
CAN/CSA22.2 NO.14, CAN/CSA22.2 NO.0.8 |
|
JIS standards |
JIS B9704-1, B9704-2 |
The F3SN-A[]SS can be used in machines
covered by the 29 CFR1910.212 OSHA standard in the United States. It
also satisfies requirements from the ANSI/RIA R15.06-1999 American
National Standard for Industrial Robots and Robot Systems.
