Finger detection

Light curtains with 14 mm resolution are intended for finger detection when the light guard needs to be very close to the machine in order to give the operator a good view and easy

accessibility to the machine.

Body detection

Light grids have a resolution adapted for detection of the whole body and are intended for perimeter guarding where there is a requirement for high accessibility. They offer a very good sensing range, but require a much greater safety distance than light guards for finger and hand detection.

Hand detection

Light curtains with 30 mm resolution are intended for hand detection and area protection and is often a good compromise between cost and accessibility to the machine. They offer a better sensing range than finger detection light curtains, but require a slightly greater safety distance.

Introduction and overview

Standards

Resolution and safety distance

The optical safety device must be installed so that no-one can reach the hazardous area without first passing through the detection zone of the light guard. The distance from the hazardous area to the detection zone of the optical safety device must be large enough in order for the machine to have time to stop before someone can reach the hazardous area. This distance is called the safety distance, and it shall be calculated using the formula from EN ISO 13855.

The safety distance is influenced by the distance between each beam in the light guard. The closer the beams are together, the smaller the safety distance can be, which is why light curtains for finger detection can be placed much closer to the hazardous area than light grids for body detection.

Safety distance according to EN ISO 13855

The distance ’S’ is the minimum distance between a light curtain and a hazardous area. This is calculated with the formula from EN ISO 13855 - Safety of machinery

- Positioning of safeguards with respect to the approach speeds of parts of the human body.

S = (K x T) + C

S = minimum distance in mm K = approach speed (of hand or body) in mm/s T = stopping time of the machine (including reaction time of safety devices) in seconds C = additional distance in mm based upon the body´s intrusion towards the hazardous area before the safety device has been actuated.

NB If it is possible to reach the hazard zone by reaching over the light beam, an adjustment is made to the formula. In table 1 in EN ISO 13855 an alternative safety distance addition (C value out of C and C hazard zone by reaching over the light curtain/grid.

) is given to the formula S = (K x T) + C. The greatest

Resolution for finger (≤14 mm) gives C = 0

is to be used to prevent reaching the

Minimum distances for light curtains installed vertically and horizontally

according to EN ISO 13855

S = minimum distance in mm H1 = the lower beam may not be situated higher than 300 mm above the ground H2 = the upper beam may not be situated lower than 900 mm above the ground

For S ≤ 500 mm the minimum distance for vertical

installation is calculated with the following formula:

S = minimum distance in mm H = the light curtain detection zone must be positioned between 0 and 1000 mm above the floor

The minimum distance for horizontal installation is calculated with the following formula:

S = (2000 x T) + 8 x (d-14)

where d is the light curtain´s resolution in mm.

K = 2000 mm/s is used to represent the speed of the hand. The expression (8 x (d-14)) may never be less than 0. Minimum distance S may never be less than 100 mm.

If the minimum distance according to the formula above

gets larger than 500 mm one can instead use:

S = (1600 x T) + 8 x (d-14)

K = 1600 mm/s is used to represent the speed of the body. Minimum distance according to this formula is 500 mm.

S = (1600 x T) + (1200 - 0.4 x H)

where H is the height of the detection zone above the reference plane, e.g. the ground

(1200 – 0,4 x H) may not be less than 850 mm. Depending on the resolution, d, that the light curtain has, there is a minimum height where the detection zone may be placed. This is calculated with: H = 15 x (d – 50). H cannot be less than 0. With a resolution d =14 or 30 mm one can therefore install the light curtain from H = 0 and up. The higher it is situated, the shorter the minimum distance gets. The highest permissible height H of the detection zone is 1000 mm.

When you use a horizontal light curtain as perimeter protection, the depth of the light curtain shall be at least 750 mm to prevent people from inadvertently stepping over it. The estimated minimum distance is measured from the machine’s hazardous section to the outermost beam of the horizontal light curtain (seen from the machine).

Minimum distance for light beams according to EN ISO

13855

For light beams the minimum distance is calculated from the following:

S = (1600 x T) + 850 mm

NOTE! The additional distance will in most cases be more

than 850 mm due to the possibility to reach over a light beam. (C

The formula applies to light guards with 2, 3 or 4 beams. It is the risk assessment that decides the number of beams that are to be chosen. The following possibilities must be considered.

– to crawl under the lowest beam; – to reach over the top beam; – to reach in between two beams; – that the body passes in between two beams.

To fulfill the requirements the beams shall be installed at the following heights:

)

Minimum distance for single beams according to EN ISO

13855

A single beam as only protection is normally not suitable to prevent whole body access. Single beams are mostly used in combination with other safety devices or fixed guards.

The risk assessment should determine if a single beam is a suitable protection for the hazard in question.

The safety distance is calculated using:

S = (1600 x T) + 1200 mm

A height of 750 mm from the reference plane has been found suitable to prevent inadvertent access to the danger zone.

Safety light curtain

Orion1 Base

Orion1 Base is an easy to use light curtain with compact dimensions

and two resolutions for detection of fingers and hands.

Light curtains are usually used closed to the hazardous zone when repeated access to the machine is necessary, for example manually serviced machines.

Light curtains can also be used to limit work zones inside the hazardous area and be mounted horizontally for area protection.

Cost effective solution

No more functions than neccessary

Orion1 Base comes with a minimum of advanced functionalities to save cost.

Minimized cabling

A local reset button can be connected directly to the light curtain. In this way there is no need for a cable between the reset button and the electrical cabinet or for an extra control module.

External device monitoring

Each light curtain can monitor the actuators without any extra control module (EDM function).

Continuous operation

Visible alignment level

Since the alignment level is displayed, the alignment can be improved before the occurrence of an unwanted stop.

Extensive error indication

Extensive error indication reduces troubleshooting time.

Protection against harsh environment

Protective tubes and lens shields protect the devices in harsh environments.

Easy to install

Easy to align

Alignment help and a wide angle within the limits of a Type 4 device facilitate alignment. Rotation brackets also simplify alignment.

Easy to connect

M12 connectors speed up cabling.

Applications and features

Orion1 Base

Applications

Vertical mounting

When using standard vertical mounting the light guard can be placed close to the hazard zone. This is suitable for applications where repeated access to the machine is necessary, e.g. manually serviced machines.

Features

Finger detection

A 14 mm resolution is intended for finger detection when the light guard needs to be very close to the machine in order to give the operator a good view and easy accessibility to the machine. A 14 mm resolution enables a sensing range of 6 m.

Horizontal mounting

Horizontal mounting is mainly used for area protection and limitation of work zones.

Hand detection

A 30 mm resolution is intended for hand detection and area protection and is a good compromise between cost and accessibility to the machine. A 30 mm resolution enables a sensing range of 19 m.

Local reset

A local reset button is connected directly to the light guard instead of to the safety control module in the electrical cabinet. This saves safety relays/PLC inputs and minimizes cabling to the electrical cabinet. Clever accessories makes the connection easier.

EDM

External Device Monitoring is a feature allowing the light guard to supervise the actuators in simpler applications, eliminating the need for a safety relay or programmable safety controller.

Safety light curtain

Orion1 Extended

Orion1 Extended is an easy to use light curtain with compact

dimensions. It has two resolutions for detection of fingers and hands, and comes with advanced features like cascading, muting and blanking.

Light curtains are usually placed closed to the hazardous zone when repeated access to the machine is necessary, for example manually serviced machines.

Cost effective solution

Integrated muting function

Muting sensors are connected directly to the light grid, with no need for a remote muting module.

No dead zones

The light beams cover all of the profile length, without the usual dead zones at the ends requiring extra mechanical guards.

Easy serial connection

Cascading with the standard units: no separate slave or master units.

Easy to install

Easy to align

Alignment help and a wide angle within the limits of a Type 4 device facilitate installation.

Easy to connect

Cables with M12 connectors speeds up connection.

Continuous operation

Reduced downtime

Extensive error indication reduces troubleshooting time.

Interference protection Protection against mutual interference with coding.

Features

Orion1 Extended

Finger detection

Blanking

The blanking function allows to define a number of beams that can be constantly interrupted without stopping the machine. In this way a fixed material or a cable is allowed in the protected field, but a hand interrupting an extra beam would stop the machine. With floating blanking, the object, for ex. the cable, can move within the protected field.

Hand detection

A 30 mm resolution is intended for hand detection and area protection and is a good compromise between cost and accessibility to the machine. A 30 mm resolution enables a sensing range of 20 m.

No dead zones

A special feature of Orion1 Extended is that the light beams cover all of the profile length, without any dead zones. This enables to place it inside openings, instead of having a larger light guard in front of an opening.

Cascading

All Orion1 Extended units can be connected in series (cascaded) to easily create a suitable light curtain setup with no special units needed.

Local reset

A local reset button is connected directly to the light guard instead of to the safety control module in the electrical cabinet. This saves safety relays/programmable inputs and minimizes cabling to the electrical cabinet.

Muting

By connecting muting sensors to the light guard, it can distinguish material from persons and allow the material to pass through an opening but not persons.

EDM

External Device Monitoring is a feature allowing the light guard to supervise the actuators in simpler applications, eliminating the need for a safety relay or programmable safety controller.
