Safety Precautions

WARNING
CAUTION
This manual describes handling, operation, and precautionary information for the Safety Control Unit (SL­R11E). Read this manual thoroughly before operating the SL-R11E in order to understand device features, and keep this instruction manual readily available for reference.

1. Safety Headings

“OSSD” described in this manual indicates the output of the SL-R11E. When using the SL-R11E, the output of the SL-C Series indicates the output that controls the “OSSD” of the SL-R11E, instead of the “OSSD” itself. This instruction manual uses the following headings to display important safety information. Strict adherence to the instructions next to these headings is required at all times.
Failure to follow the instructions may result in significant harm to machine opera­tors, including death.
Failure to follow the instructions may result in failure to the machine to which the SL-R11E is installed.

2. General Precautions

ENGLISH
•Verify that this device is operating normally in terms of functionality and performance before the start of work and before the start of device operation.
KEYENCE is unable to warrant the function or performance of the SL-R11E if it is used in a manner that differs from the SL-R11E specifications contained in this instruction manual or if the SL-R11E is modified.
When using the SL-R11E to protect machine operators from a hazardous zone or a hazard, or using it as safety equipment for any purpose, always follow the applicable requirements, regulations, and laws (collectively “regulations”) existing in the country or region where the SL-R11E is being used. For such regulations, contact directly the regulatory agency responsible for occupational safety and health in your country or region.
Depending on the type of machine to which the SL-R11E is to be attached, there may be special safety regulations related to the use, installation, maintenance, and operation of the device, and such safety regulations must be followed. The responsible personnel must install the SL-R11E in strict compliance with such safety regulations.
The responsible personnel must train the assigned personnel for the correct use, installation, mainte­nance, and operation of the SL-R11E. “Machine operators” refers to personnel who have received appro­priate training from the responsible personnel and are qualified to operate the device correctly.
Machine operators must receive specialized training for the SL-R11E and must understand and follow the safety regulations for the country or region in which they are using the SL-R11E.
When the SL-R11E fails to operate properly, machine operators must immediately stop the use of the device and report this fact to the responsible personnel.
The SL-R11E is designed with the assumption that it would be properly installed in accordance with the installation procedures described in this instruction manual and operated according to the instructions in this instruction manual. Perform an appropriate installation of the SL-R11E after conducting a sufficient risk assessment for the target machine.
This device should be processed as an industrial waste product when being disposed.

3. Warning

Operators
• In order for the SL-R11E to operate properly, the responsible personnel and machine operators must
follow all procedures described in this instruction manual.
• No person other than the responsible personnel and machine operators should be allowed to install or
test the SL-R11E.
• When performing electrical wiring, always follow electrical standards and regulations for the country or
region in which the SL-R11E is being used.
Usage environment
• Do not use the device in an environment (temperature, humidity, interfering light, etc.) that does not
conform to the specifications contained in this instruction manual.
• Do not use wireless devices such as cellular phones or transceivers in the vicinity of the SL-R11E.
• The SL-R11E is not designed to be explosion-proof. Never use it in the presence of flammable or
explosive gases or elements.
• Do not use the SL-R11E in the presence of substances, such as heavy smoke, particulate matter, or
corrosive chemical agents, that may induce deterioration in product quality.
Target machine
• The SL-R11E has not undergone the model certification examination in accordance with Article 44-2 of
the Japanese Industrial Safety and Health Law. The SL-R11E, therefore, cannot be used in Japan as a “Safety Device for Press and Shearing machines” as established in Article 42 of that law.
• The machine on which the SL-R11E is to be installed must be susceptible to an emergency stop at all
operating points during its operation cycle. Do not use the SL-R11E for machines with irregular stop times.
• Do not use the SL-R11E for power presses equipped with full-revolution clutches.
• Do not use the SL-R11E to control (stop forward motion, etc.) trains, cars and other transportation
vehicles, aircraft, equipment for use in space, medical devices, or nuclear power generation systems.
• The SL-R11E is designed to protect people or objects from entering a machine’s hazardous zone or
hazard. It cannot provide protection against objects or materials that are displaced from the machine's hazardous zone or hazard, and so implement additional safety measures such as installing safeguards when there is the possibility of such displacements.
Installation
• Install the SL-R11E inside an enclosure such as a control panel that offers a rating of at least IP54 in
accordance with the IEC 60529 standard.
• The SL-R11E is a special control unit for the Safety Light Curtain SL-C Series, so be sure to connect it
to the SL-C Series when using it.

4. Circuit Design and Wiring

Always turn off the device power when performing electrical wiring.
•Follow electrical standards and regulations for the country or region in which the SL-R11E is being used when performing the electrical wiring. Only qualified persons should perform wiring.
Do not place any cables or electrical lines used in wiring the SL-R11E in the same duct as high-voltage electrical or power lines or in parallel with such lines.
Do not extend transmitter and receiver cables over a maximum distance of 30 meters (98.43 ft.).
Install the mechanism used to reset the interlock (switches, etc.) in a position from which the condition of the entire hazardous zone can be checked. Do not install the reset mechanism in a position where it can be operated within the hazardous zone.
The control outputs (OSSD) of the two systems provided in the SL-R11E must both be used to build a safety system. Building a safety system with just one of these systems cannot stop the machine due to a control output malfunction and can result in a serious accident, including serious injury or death to the machine operator.
The AUX output provided in the SL-R11E is not an output for the safety system, so it cannot be used by
connecting a control output (so called OSSD or MPCE) to stop the machine. If using the AUX by connect­ing an output to build a safety system and stop the machine, it could result in the serious injury or death of the machine operator.
When wiring the SL-R11E output terminal to the machine control circuit of a machine containing the SL-C, check with the machine manufacturer to make sure the wiring is appropriate for the machine being used to ensure that the machine can be stopped correctly. If the wiring is not done correctly for the machine, a serious accident, such as serious injury or death to the machine operator could result.
Connect the load (MPCE) between the control output (OSSD) and 0V. If it is erroneously connected between the control output (OSSD) and +24V, the OSSD does not operate normally and the SL-C Series turns ON when the beams are blocked. This is very dangerous.

5. Testing and Maintenance

Always perform testing in accordance with the test procedures after maintenance, adjustment, or calibra­tion of the target machine or the SL-R11E, and before the machine start-up.
If the SL-C or SL-R11E does not operate properly when tested in accordance with the test procedures established in this instruction manual, do not operate the machine.
•Periodically examine the machine to verify that all brakes, other stop mechanisms, and control devices operate reliably and accurately in addition to checking for SL-C and SL-R11E.
The responsible personnel must perform maintenance procedures as established in this instruction manual at least once every six months to ensure safe device operation.

2 Functions

2-1 Start Interlock

This function keeps the OSSD turned off when the power to the SL-R11E is turned on. At this time, the OSSD will not turn on even when the SL-C Series connected to the SL-R11E is clear of any obstruction in the detection zone. In order to cancel the start interlock status (in other words, to turn the OSSD ON to allow the machine to start), the start/restart input must be input when there are no obstacles in the detection zone. This will cause the OSSD to turn on, allowing the cancellation of the start interlock status. Using this function prevents the machine from being automatically started when the power is turned on, or when the start switch, etc., is pressed after safety has been confirmed.
For details, See page 4-4 “4-3-1 Wiring to Start/Restart Input Terminals”.

2-2 Restart Interlock

The OSSD turns off when an obstacle interrupts the detection zone, and this function keeps the OSSD turned off even after the obstacle is removed from the detection zone. In order to cancel the restart interlock status (in other words, to turn the OSSD ON to allow the machine to restart), the start/restart input must be input when there are no obstacles in the detection zone. This will cause the OSSD to turn on, allowing the cancellation of the restart interlock status. This function prevents the machine from automatically starting even when the obstacle detected by the SL-C Series is removed from the detection zone, so after the safety check is completed, the machine can be restarted by pressing the start switch, etc.
For details, See page 4-4 “4-3-1 Wiring to Start/Restart Input Terminals”.

2-3 E-STOP Input

E-STOP input refers to 2 normally closed signal inputs that are used to rapidly stop the machine when the emergency stop switch or similar button is operated. The SL-R11E has a terminal (E-STOP1 and E-STOP2 input terminals) for receiving the input signal from the emergency stop switch (or similar button) operation, so the machine can be emergency stopped via the SL-R11E. SL-R11E requires the start/restart input in order to return to the normal operation from an emergency stop state. That is why the SL-R11E requires the start/ restart input to cancel the interlock state in addition to the manual restart of E-STOP signal input. This function not only makes emergency stopping possible when danger is detected by the SL-C, but can also cause the OSSD provided in the SL-R11E to be operated by E-STOP input from an emergency stop switch, etc., so it can be used to make output systems uniform.
For details, See page 4-5 “4-3-2 Wiring to E-STOP Input Terminals”.

2-4 MPCE (Machine Primary Control Element) Monitor

MPCE (Machine Primary Control Element) is the machine's main control element and is used between the SL-R11E control output (OSSD) and the machine to directly control the machine start/stop. The MPCE uses safety relays, contactors, and so on, and inputting the feedback signal from these to the MPCE monitor input terminal provided in the SL-R11E makes it possible to monitor MPCE errors. When an MPCE error causes the OSSD and MPCE operation not to be linked, the SL-R11E immediately turns off the OSSD, and the SL-C Series and SL-R11E go to the lockout condition.
For details, See page 4-7 “4-3-3 Wiring to MPCE Monitor Input Terminal”.

2-5 Main/Sub Setting

This is set when making a light interference prevention connection to the SL-C Series. Be sure to read about the light interference prevention connection from the “Safety Light Curtain SL-C Series Instruction Manual.” The light interference prevention connection function is enabled only when a maximum of 4 SL-R11Es are connected via a light interference prevention cable and the maximum number of beam axes of the SL-C Series connected to the SL-R11E is 192, only one SL-R11E must be set to the main mode, and all of the other SL-R11E that are connected via light interference prevention cables must be set to the sub mode.
For details, See page 4-7 “4-3-4 Connecting to Main/Sub Select Input Terminal”.
ENGLISH

2-6 TEST Input

The test input forcefully stops light beam transmission from the transmitter by using an external input. The test input is used to see if the machine connected to the SL-C and SL-R11E can stop within the pre­scribed time when the OSSD turns off. For example, when the test input is performed with the SL-C in the normal state (when OSSD output is on when all beam axes are clear of any obstruction), the OSSD is forced off and only one bar LED of the SL-C flashes red. (However, this excludes when the Fixed Blanking function is used.) This test input cannot be used when the SL-R12EX is used and the Programmable Muting Bank function is enabled. Therefore, the Programmable Muting Bank function must be canceled to enable test input.
