SICK nanoScan3

The following tests must be planned:
•
Be
fore commissioning the machine and after making changes, you must check
whether the safety functions are fulfilling their planned purpose and whether
persons are being adequately protected.
•
The thorough checks of the safety laser scanner must fulfill certain minimum
requirements.
A test object is required for some thorough checks. An optically opaque cylinder with
a black surface can be used as a suitable test object. The diameter must match the
configured resolution.

4.6.1 Planning the thorough check during commissioning and in certain situations
Minimum requirements
T
he protective device and its application must be thoroughly checked in the following
situations:
•
Before commissioning
•
After changes to the configuration or the safety function
•
After changes to the mounting, the alignment, or the electrical connection
•
After exceptional events, such as after manipulation has been detected, after
modification of the machine, or after replacing components
The thorough check ensures the following:
•
All relevant regulations are complied with and the protective device is active for all
of the machine’s operating modes. This includes the following points:
°
compliance with standards
°
correct use of the protective device
°
suitable configuration and safety function
°
correct alignment
•
The documentation accurately reflects the state/condition of the machine, includ‐
ing the protective device.
•
The verified configuration report matches the desired project planning (see "Verify
configuration", page 87).
The thorough checks must be carried out by qualified safety personnel or specially
qualified and authorized personnel, and must be documented in a traceable manner.
Additional thorough checks for CIP Safety
•
Chec
k CIP Safety connection cables and ensure they function as intended.
•
Check all CIP Safety-relevant settings in the configuration.
•
Before entering the configuration signature into the configuration of the control:
check the configuration of the safety laser scanner.
Recommended thorough checks
In man
y cases, it makes sense to carry out the following thorough checks during
commissioning and in certain situations:
•
Test of the relevant points on the checklist, see "Checklist for initial commissioning
and commissioning", page 153
•
"Visual check of the machine and the protective device", page 54
•
"Thorough check of the principal function of the protective device", page 52
•
"Thorough check of the area to be protected", page 53
•
"Test of the contour detection field", page 54
•
Instruction of the operators in the function of the protective device
