F3SG-SR

User’s Manual

Machines

Do not use this sensor for machines that cannot be stopped quickly by electrical control. For
example, do not use it for a pressing machine that uses full-rotation clutch. Otherwise, the
machine may not stop before a person reaches the hazardous part, resulting in serious injury.

To use the F3SG-SR in PSDI mode (initiation of cyclic operation by a presence sensing device),
you must configure an appropriate circuit between the F3SG-SR and the machine. For details
about PSDI, refer to OSHA 1910.217, IEC 61496-1, and other relevant standards and
regulations.

Installation

Make sure Responsible Person tests the operation of the F3SG-SR and F39-SGIT-IL3 after
installation to verify that the F3SG-SR and F39-SGIT-IL3 operate as intended. Make sure to stop
the machine until the test is complete. Unintended installation, wiring or function settings may
cause a person to go undetected, resulting in serious injury.

Make sure to install the F3SG-SR at the safety distance from the hazardous part of the machine.
Otherwise, the machine may not stop before a person reaches the hazardous part, resulting in
serious injury.

Introduction

Install a protective structure so that the hazardous part of a machine can only be reached by
passing through the sensor's detection zone. If access to the hazardous part by reaching over
the detection zone of a vertically mounted F3SG-SR cannot be excluded, the height of the
detection zone and the safety distance shall be determined in consideration of such a risk. Install
the sensors so that part of the person is always present in the detection zone when working in a
machine's hazardous zones. If a person is able to step into the hazardous zone of a machine
and remain behind the F3SG-SR's detection zone, configure the system with Restart Interlock
function. Failure to do so may result in serious injury due to unexpected startup.

Install the reset switch in a location that provides a clear view of the entire hazardous zone and
where it cannot be activated from within the hazardous zone.

Install the pre-reset switch always in the hazardous zone and where it cannot be activated from
outside the hazardous zone.

The F3SG-SR cannot protect a person from an object flying from the hazardous zone. Install
protective cover(s) or fence(s).

Install a protective structure to cover the whole blanked zone in order to prevent personnel
approach to hazardous part of the machine through the blanked zone.

Detection capability gets larger when Fixed Blanking, Floating Blanking or Reduced Resolution
function is used. When these functions are used, the safety distance calculation must be based
on the increased detection capability for these functions. Otherwise, the machine may not stop
before a person reaches to the hazardous part, resulting in serious injury.

F3SG-SR

User’s Manual

Introduction

If detection capability may get larger and a human body may pass a detection zone to reach a
hazardous source, additional safety protection equipment must be installed such as a safety
fence.

A warning zone must not be used for safety applications. Always install your system so that a
detection zone should be passed before reaching a hazardous part of the machine. If access to
the hazardous part by reaching over the detection zone of a vertically mounted F3SG-SR cannot
be excluded, the height of the detection zone and the safety distance shall be determined in
consideration of such a risk.

When a warning zone is configured, you must attach labels that indicate a border between
normal detection zone and warning zone. Otherwise, the machine may not stop before a person
reaches to the hazardous part, resulting in serious injury.

A warning zone must be configured based on a safety distance.

The Muting and Override functions disable the safety functions of the device. Especially setting
the Muting Time Limit parameter to infinite may cause the safety functions to be disabled for a
long time. Install the F3SG-SR, muting sensor and physical barrier and configure time settings
for Muting and Override so that an operator should not enter hazardous zone when the Muting
and Override are active.

Install muting sensors so that they can distinguish between the object that is being allowed to
pass through the detection zone and a person. If the Muting function is activated by the detection
of a person, the machine may not stop operating, resulting in serious injury.

Muting lamps that indicate the state of the Muting and Override functions must be installed where
they are clearly visible to workers from all the operating positions.

Use two independent input devices for muting inputs. Failure to do so may cause the MUTING
state due to a single muting sensor's failure.

Install the switch that activates the Override and that uses hold-to-run device, such as spring
return key switch, in a location that provides a clear view of the entire hazardous zone and where
it cannot be activated from within the hazardous zone. Make sure that nobody is in the
hazardous zone before activating the Override function.

Make sure to connect an override cancel switch to the RESET line when using the Override
function. Otherwise, the OVERRIDE state may not be released by the override cancel switch,
resulting in serious injury.

Install the F3SG-SR so that it is not affected by reflective surfaces. Failure to do so may hinder
detection, resulting in serious injury. For an installation distance from reflective surfaces, see 5-
1-3. Distance from Reflective Surfaces.

viii

When using more than one set of F3SG-SR's in adjacent areas, the emitter of one F3SG-SR
may interfere with the receiver of the other, causing the safety functions to stop working properly.
Install, configure and maintain them so that mutual interference does not occur.

To change the response time, calculate the safety distance based on the setting. Otherwise, the
machine may not stop before a person reaches the hazardous part, resulting in serious injury.

F3SG-SR

User’s Manual

Do not use the F3SG-SR with mirrors in a retro-reflective configuration. Doing so may hinder
detection. It is possible to use mirrors to alter the detection zone to a 90-degree angle.

Wiring

When using the PNP output, connect the load between the output and 0 V line. When using the
NPN output, connect the load between the output and +24 VDC line. Connecting the load
between the output and a different power supply line from the above line will result in a
dangerous condition because the operation mode of safety outputs are reversed to "Dark-ON".

When using the PNP output, do not ground +24 VDC line. When using the NPN output, do not
ground 0 V line. Otherwise, a ground fault may turn the safety outputs ON, resulting in a failure of
stopping the machine.

Configure the system by using the optimal number of safety outputs that satisfy the requirements
of the necessary safety category.

Do not connect each line of the F3SG-SR to a DC power supply of higher than 24 VDC+20%.
Also, do not connect it to an AC power supply. Failure to do so may result in electric shock.

Make sure to perform wiring while the power supply is OFF.

Do not use the output signal of the auxiliary output or IO-Link output for safety applications.
Failure to do so may result in serious injury when the F3SG-SR fails.

Introduction

For the F3SG-SR to comply with IEC 61496-1 and UL 508, the DC power supply unit must
satisfy
all of the following conditions:

• The DC power supply operates within the rated power voltage (24 VDC ± 20%).

• The DC power supply has tolerance against the total rated current of devices if it is connected
to multiple devices.

• The DC power supply complies with EMC directives (industrial environment).

• Double or reinforced insulation is applied between the primary and secondary circuits.

• The DC power supply has an automatic recovery type of overcurrent protection characteristics.

• Output holding time is 20 ms or longer.

• The DC power supply satisfies output characteristic requirements for class 2 circuit or limited
voltage current circuit defined by UL 508. Refer to 5-4-2. Power Supply Unit.

• The DC power supply complies with laws and regulations, regarding EMC and electrical
equipment safety, of the country or region where the F3SG-SR is used. (For example, in EU,
the power supply must comply with the EMC Directive and the Low Voltage Directive.)

Double or reinforced insulation from hazardous voltage must be applied to all input and output
lines. Failure to do so may result in electric shock.

Extension of the cable must be within a specified length. If it isn't, safety functions may not work
properly, resulting in danger.

Settings

Make sure the Responsible Person tests the operation of the F3SG-SR after setting with the DIP
Switch on the F39-SGIT-IL3, Teach-in, SD Manager 3 or End Cap to verify that the F3SG-SR
operates as intended. Make sure to stop the machine until the test is complete. Unintended
settings may cause a person to go undetected, resulting in serious injury.

When performing the Backup, make sure to set the DIP Switch Position 1 at OFF (Unlock) before
turning on the power. If the DIP Switch Position 1 is at ON (Lock), the Restoration is performed,
which may case the settings of the F3SG-SR to be overwritten and a person to go undetected,
resulting in serious injury.

When performing the Restoration, make sure to set the DIP Switch Position 1 at ON (Lock)
before turning on the power. If the DIP Switch Position 1 at OFF (Unlock), the Backup is
performed, which may cause the settings of the Intelligent Tap to be overwritten and a person to
go undetected, resulting in serious injury.

When the Restoration is performed, if the DIP Switch Position 2 is at ON (DIP Switch Enabled)
and settings of the DIP Switch Positions 3 to 8 are different from the backup data in the F39­SGIT-IL3, the settings in the DIP Switch takes priority and are saved in the F3SG-SR. To prevent
such an accident, it is recommended that you set the DIP Switch Position 2 at OFF before
performing the Restoration when you use the settings backed up from the F3SG-SR or make
settings with the SD Manager 3.

When pairing your device with the F39-SGBT Bluetooth® Communication Unit, make sure that
the model name and serial number of the sensor to be configured match the information on your
device.

• Do not install, use, or store the product in the following types of environments:

- Areas with a temperature or humidity out of the specified range

- Areas submerged in water or subject to rain water

• This is a class A product (for industrial environments). In residential areas it may cause radio
interference, in which case the Responsible Person may be required to take adequate measures to
reduce interference.

 Wiring and installation

• Properly perform the wiring after confirming the signal names of all the terminals.

• Do not operate the control system until 3 s or more after turning ON the power of the F3SG-SR.

• When using a commercially available switching regulator power supply, make sure to ground the PE
terminal (protective earth terminal).

• Install the emitter and receiver to the same vertical direction.

• Use brackets of specified quantities and locations according to the dimensions. If the brackets
described above are not used, ratings and performance cannot be met.

• Do not install the F3SG-SR close to a device that generates high-frequency noise. Otherwise, take
sufficient blocking measures.

• Sharing the power supply with other devices may cause the F3SG-SR to be affected by noise or
voltage drop. It is recommended that the F3SG-SR use a power supply dedicated for safety
components, not shared with other devices.

• Do not change the scan code during normal operation. The F3SG-SR transitions to lockout.

• Do not apply load to the connectors.

• The operating range of the safety light curtain attached with the spatter protection cover is 10%
shorter than the rating. Install the product in consideration with the decrease of the operating range.

 Cleaning

• Do not use thinner, benzene, or acetone for cleaning. They affect the product's resin parts and paint
on the housing.

• Use a soft cloth which is dry or wetted with clean water for cleaning. Do not use solvents.

 Object detection

• The F3SG-SR cannot detect transparent and/or translucent objects.

 Settings

• Do not operate the DIP Switch on the F39-SGIT-IL3 during normal operation of the F3SG-SR.
Otherwise, the F3SG-SR enters the LOCKOUT state.

• Do not operate the DIP Switch and Push Switch on the F39-SGIT-IL3 with tools that may damage the
product.

• Be sure that the F3SG-SR is in the SETTING state when making a change to the setting.
