First commissioning
Operating Manual PSEN sc B 5 Series

The wiring of inputs has already been configured by the previous selection.
7. Under Multiple evaluation, define the number of consecutive scans needed for detec-
tion.
Increasing the number of consecutive scans will increase the response time of the
safety laser scanner.
8. Select the detection capability [mm] for this safety laser scanner. Define the value for
Safety zone or for Warning zone.
9. Select Dust filter level (level1=low, level 3=high).
A higher level of dust filtering requires a longer safety distance.
WARNING!
Loss of safety function due to a safety distance that is too low
Depending on the application, serious injury or death may result.
} Depending on the degree of dust filtering, it is necessary to consider an
allowance for calculating the safety distance when installing the safety
laser scanner near intense light sources or reflective surfaces into ac-
count (see
Distance to intense light sources and to reflective
surfaces [ 24]).
– When calculating the safety distance, ensure that the allowance is
considered depending on the dust filtering.
– Ensure that the new safety distance fulfils the specifications of the
safety assessment.
9.4 Testing
Before finally commissioning the safety laser scanner after the installation and alignment, fi-
nal inspections must be carried out.
INFORMATION
This inspection may only be carried out by qualified personnel.
Check safety function of the safety laser scanner
Procedure:
Use an opaque object with a height of at least 300 mm and a diameter of 70 mm as a test
piece.
Move the test piece at various points along the safety zone into the safety zone:
