+ This symbol indicates a very important warning concerning the safety of persons. Its
non-observance can cause a very serious risk for the exposed personnel.
INTRODUCTION
The SLC 410 / SLG 410 photoelectric barrier is a optoelectronic safety system. It belongs to
the family of Type 4 according to EN 954-1. The SLC 410 / SLG 410 barrier, which consists
of an Emitter and a Receiver, is a type 4 optoelectronic safety device according to standards
EN 61496-1 and EN 61496-2.
The two safe static semiconductor outputs enable the barrier to be connected to safety
modules or to a safety PLC or to another control system that satisfies the specific
requirements and safety level of the application.
A diagnostics display on the Emitter and receiver supplies the information that is necessary
for the correct use of the device and to evaluate any malfunctions.
SLC 410 / SLG 410 is ideal for protecting:
Presses, die cutting machines, punching machines, cutting and shearing machines,
robotized areas, assembly lines, palletization lines, etc.
+ If necessary, contact the competent safety authorities in the country of use for any
safety-related questions.
+ For applications in the food industry, please contact the manufacturer to ensure that
the barrier contains materials that are compatible with the chemical agents utilized.
The protective function of the optoelectronic devices is not effective in the following cases:
+ If the machine stopping control cannot be actuated electrically and if it is not
possible to stop all dangerous machine movements immediately and at any time
during the operating cycle.
+ If the machine generates dangerous situations due to material being expelled or
falling from overhead.
