Operator Presence
Detection in Work Areas with Complex Shapes
A Type 3 Safety Laser Scanner in compliance
with IEC 61496-1/-3.
Two patterns of protective and warning area
combinations can be set to enable responding to complex changes in the
work area.
You can set a protective area with a 4-m
radius and a warning area with a 15-m radius.
The LED indicators and 16 intrusion
indicators shown the status at a glance.
Complex area settings can be made using
the setting software.
Achieve category-3 safety circuits without a
special controller.
Response time from 80 ms to a maximum of 680
ms.

Features |
|
The OS3101 Safety Laser Scanner
is designed for use in hazardous zones that change irregularly. Parameters
for even highly complex areas can be easily set using personal computer
software.
In addition to protecting
operators on conveyor lines and at robot stations, the OS3101 can be
mounted onto automated guided vehicles (AGVs) and other mobile objects for
which the monitoring area must be frequently switched, during obstacle
detection.
Laser Beams Scan in
2-Dimensional Space to Constantly Monitor the Presence of Operators in the
Monitoring Area
The guiding principle in providing safety for operators is to prevent
machines from operating whenever a person is inside the working area of a
robot or other machine. The OS3101 Safety Laser Scanner uses 2-dimensional
laser-beam scanning to detect whether an operator is present in the preset
area by monitoring reflected beams, in order to maintain operator safety.
Depending on Work Details,
Two Patterns Can Be Set for Two Different Area Combinations
Two different protective area and warning area combinations can be preset,
allowing the safety laser scanner to respond to even complex changes in the work
environment. The patterns can be switched using only the OS3101, without
having to use the special Controller, to quickly meet the needs of various
work steps.
Allows the Setting of a
Protective Area with a Radius of 4 Meters and a Warning Area with a Radius
of 15 Meters
It is possible to set both a protective area with a maximum radius of 4
meters, which prevents the machine from operating when entry is detected,
and a warning area with a maximum radius of 15 meters, which monitors and
warns of people approaching the machine. Because the OS3101 Safety Laser
Scanner warns with
indicators, sirens, and other means that something has entered the warning
area, it makes it possible to prevent unintended stops. Two patterns of
protective and warning area combinations can also be set to meet various
needs.
An Array of 16 Intrusion
Indicators and an LED Display Show the OS3101 Condition at a Glance
When the OS3101 Safety Laser Scanner detects an object entering the protective area, the
intrusion indicators immediately light in red. The positions of the lit
indicators from among the total of 16 indicators show the direction of the
intrusion. The LED status indicators and 2-digit numerical,
self-diagnostic display show the condition of the OS3101 with a single
glance.
Even Complicated Areas Can
Be Easily Set with Software
Highly flexible
protective and warning areas can be set to match the shape of the work
area, allowing for the presence of machines and other equipment. Area
parameters are selected from semicircular, rectangular, or polygonal. A
teaching function also allows the OS3101's scanning data to be edited and
registered as area setting data. These functions bring considerable
flexibility and ease to area setting.
Category 3 Safety Circuits
Can Be Set without Using the Controller
Two
high-capacity PNP transistor control outputs allow direct connection of
output equipment such as safety relays and contactors with rated current
up to 625 mA at 24 VDC. The OS3101
Safety Laser Scanner
also features an external device
monitor (EDM) that makes it possible to configure safety circuits to the
Category 3 level without having to use the Controller.
Response Time from 80 ms to
a Maximum of 680 ms
The response
time can be set for use in locations subject to special conditions, such
as spattering in welding stations. This reduces the chances of the
spattering material being mistakenly detected and stopping the machine,
thus helping to improve productivity.
