Product description
If two protective fields are configured, then the two cut-off paths must be routed to
i
ndependent OSSD pairs on the Flexi Soft safety controller.
You can define the warning fields such that the safety laser scanner detects an object
before the actual hazardous area.
Warning field 1 can be used in particular for vehicle protection to detect an object even
before the actual hazardous area and to slowly retard the movement of the vehicle or bring
it to a standstill. In this way the wear on the brakes on an AGV can be reduced. Warning
field 2 can also be used to trigger a warning signal.
A warning field is not allowed to be used for tasks related to personnel protection.
Contour monitoring
In addition to the protective field, the S3000 can also monitor a contour (e.g. the floor in
vertical applications).
