The FF-SE laser scanner from Honeywell is a revolutionary product in the world of
industrial safety. This device combines radar and laser principles to scan pre-defined zones around dangerous machinery or moving vehicles. In case of intrusion
in these zones, output relays are immediately opened, eliminating the danger.
An infrared class 1 laser beam strikes a mirror rotating at 8 Hz, allowing it to sweep
a 300° area. Any object with a minimum reflectivity of 1,8% (black target) will be
detected in a 6 m / 19.7 ft radius. Two safety levels may be set through two zones
that can have any shape:
• “alarm zone”, in a 10 m / 32.8 ft radius around the FF-SE
• “safety zone” in a 6 m / 19.7 ft radius
These two zones are defined using the software (ordered separately), running on a
computer connected to the FF-SE, which allows the areas to be protected to be
displayed on the screen. The two zones correspond to two independent outputs,
allowing multiple applications:
• the alarm zone can be used to trigger an acoustic or light signal when a person
approaches, which indicates that there is a close danger, allowing the intruder to
withdraw without stopping the machine.
• the safety zone is used to trigger the immediate stopping of the machinery
(2 safety NO contacts).
Restart is automatic after clearing the zone. Use additional safety control module if
manual restart is needed.
This system is unique because of its small resolution (0,5° in angle) and its excellent precision, while covering a wide area (262 m2 / 2820 ft2). The FF-SE has been
designed in agreement with the pr EN 61496-3 that will soon be brought into effect
for this new kind of detecting device.
FF-SE Series
External and internal surveillance systems make it a Type 3 optoelectronic protective system. Its self-cleaning optical head and its good immunity to pollution guarantee a superior reliability.
