SICK SLG-2 User Manual

Maximum sensing range
The maximum sensing range is the guaranteed working distance between sender and
receiver without operating reserve or without taking into account other external influen‐
ces such as contamination.
If the SLG-2 is operated within this sensing range, a clean environment and regular
cleaning are required.
Recommended sensing range
Within the recommended sensing range, the light grid has the highest detection reliabil‐
ity with the greatest possible resistance.
Sensing range options
The SLG-2 light grid is available in different sensing range options. These include:

Application
SLGxxS-xxxxARxxxxx 440 mm – 3,500 mm 150 mm – 4,900 mm Standard device
SLGxxS-xxxxCRxxxxx 440 mm – 1,700 mm 150 mm – 2,400 mm Very high sunlight
resistance
SLGxxS-xxxxERxxxxx 70 mm – 1,500 mm 70 mm – 2,150 mm For small sensing
ranges
When using the cross-beam function, other sensing range limitations must be
observed.
Detailed information can be found in chapter 11.
3.2.7 Measurement information
The SLG-2 can output the raw data via the serial interfaces in the form of the beam
status so the user can evaluate the data him/herself.
In addition, the SLG-2 can process the raw data via various functions (e.g. LBB for
height measurement or zone and logic functions) and output them via a serial interface
or push/pull outputs.
