Alert Statements in this Manual
An OS32C is an electro-sensitive protective equipment designed to guard personnel working
around hazardous machinery.
Whether a specific machine application and the OS32C system installation complies with safety
regulations depends on the proper application, installation, maintenance and operation of the
OS32C system. These items are the responsibility of the purchaser, installer and user.
User
iv
The administrator is responsible for the selection and training of personnel to properly install,
operate, and maintain the machine and its safeguarding systems.
An OS32C system should only be installed, verified and maintained by a qualified person. A qualified
person is defined as ”an individual who understands, is trained on, and demonstrates competence with the construction, operation or maintenance of the machinery and the hazards involved.” (ANSI/PMMI
B155.1-2006)
OS32C
User’s Manual
The machine requirements
The guarded machine must be able to stop anywhere in its cycle. Do not use an OS32C on a press
with a full-revolution clutch.
The guarded machine must have a consistent stopping time and adequate control mechanisms.
All safety-related machine control elements must be designed so that an alarm in the control logic
or failure of the control circuit does not lead to a failure to danger.
Do not use the auxiliary output or warning output for safety applications. A human body may not be
detected even if a failure of OS32C occurs, resulting in serious injuries.
Installation
Introduction
The main unit must be securely mounted and its cable connectors must be tightly attached.
The OS32C must not be mounted behind glass or within a secondary enclosure. Failure to do so
will cause a reduction in detection capability, which can cause serious injury or death.
A start switch to release interlock must be installed where an operator can observe the monitored/
guarded zone as a whole and cannot operate the switch within the hazardous zone.
Per the International standard IEC 61496-3, area scanners used in applications where the angle of
approach exceeds +/- 30 degrees with respect to the detection plane, must use reference
boundary monitoring (RBM) of the detection zone.
Make sure to remove any retro-reflector from the field of view of the OS32C when in RBM mode.
A protective mechanism must be installed to prevent a hazardous condition in the event of a
subsequent machine component failure. The OS32C does not protect against ejected flying
material.
Severe smoke and particulate matter may degrade the efficiency of an OS32C, causing it to
unexpectedly enter a Machine Stop state.
Use of mirrors or mirror-like objects in the protection plane must be avoided, as they can hide part
of the area to be monitored/guarded.
Additional guarding may be required to prohibit access to dangerous areas not covered by the
OS32C system.

Introduction
Perform the test procedure in this document at installation, after maintenance, adjustment, repair
or modification to the machine controls, tooling or the OS32C system. See page 162.
Perform only the test and repair procedures outlined in this manual.
Additional measurement error resulting from reflective backgrounds may need to be added to the
measurement error of the OS32C.
To use the protective function of the OS32C, a safety zone must be properly defined and
configured.
If the response time is changed, re-calculation of the safety distance is required. This may require
re-configuration of the safety zones or re-installation of the OS32C. If the safety distance is not
appropriate for the application, the machine may not stop before contact with the hazardous part,
resulting in serious injuries or death.
The activation of RBM Only mode will increase the response time. This additional time must be
taken into consideration when calculating the safety guarding distance.
When using more than one OS32C, mutual interference should be prevented. This may require
different scanner positions or physical shields to be installed.
To ensure a protection degree of IP65, DO NOT use this product without proper sealing of the
cable connector, I/O block, and scan window.
If the external zone switching device momentarily exceeds the configured number of active zone
set select inputs during the zone switch, an additional Zone Delay may be incurred in the event
that wiring of a zone set select input fails. The external zone switching device must properly
sequence so the configured number of active inputs is not exceeded in order to guarantee that
failed zone set select input wiring will be detected within the normal Zone Switching Time described below.
If an insufficient Zone Delay is used for the actual worst case switching time of the installation, the
scanner might start monitoring the wrong zone during the switching period.
Also, if an insufficient Zone Delay is used for the actual worst case switching time of the
installation, there might be a fault condition during the zone switching period.
If tstart (switching start time) is configured without consideration of TmaxReaction (total maximum
reaction time), object detection within the new safety zone after switching and turning OFF of the
safety outputs may be delayed.
vi
Monitoring zone parameters are subject to a number of constraints that include projective
consistency, maximum radius, and angle limits. As a result, an imported zone may not correspond
exactly to the zone defined in the file. The user must visually verify the imported zone when the
zone coordinate import process is complete. Refer to Checkout and Test Procedure Log on page
162.
The installer is responsible for assessing the risk and to ensure that the zone of limited detection
does not create a safety hazard. If a hazard exists additional countermeasure must be taken, this
may require additional guarding measures.
OS32C
User’s Manual
Wiring Connections
Do not connect the OS32C to a power supply with more than 24VDC + 25% / -30%. Do not supply
AC power to the OS32C, this may result in electrical shock.
For the OS32C to meet IEC 61496-1 and UL 508, its DC power supply unit must satisfy all of the
following conditions:
• Within rated line voltage (24 VDC +25% / -30%)
• Complying with EMC directives (industrial environments)
• Double-insulation or reinforced insulation between primary and secondary circuits
• Automatic return for overcurrent protection
• Output retention time of 20 ms or longer
• Satisfying output characteristics requirements of Class 2 circuit or limited voltage/current circuit defined in
UL508.
• Power supply complying with regulations and standards of EMC and safety of electrical equipment in a
country or a region where OS32C is used. (Example: In EU, a power supply must comply with the EMC
and Low Voltage Directives.)
Introduction
To prevent electrical shock, use double-insulation or reinforced insulation from hazardous voltage
(such as 230 VAC).
Cable extensions must be within the specified lengths, otherwise it may result in a failure of the
safety functions.
To use this product for a category 3 safety system, both safety outputs must be connected to the
safety system. Configuring a safety system with only one safety output may result in serious
injuries due to output circuit fault and a failure of the machine to stop.
Protection of Cable at Installation:
Care should be taken when installing the OS32C cable. The cable must be properly routed and
secured to ensure that damage does not occur.
Functional Earth:
The OS32C system requires a functional earth connection.
Do not connect Functional Earth to a positive ground system. If it is connected to positive ground,
the guarded machine to be controlled may NOT stop, resulting in severe operator injury.
Signal Connector Isolation:
The connectors used during installation must provide sufficient signal separation in order to
prevent a short circuit condition of the input power and system signals.
When wiring the OS32C to external devices, make sure to follow the color and coding schemes
per EN 60204-1.

Introduction
Others
Do not modify the main unit of the OS32C. Do not replace or fix any component of the OS32C
other than the ones specified in this manual. Doing so may result in a failure of this device to
function correctly.
If there is any damage to the window, replace it as soon as possible. Otherwise it may result in a
failure of the OS32C. Take preventive measures when performing replacement work so that dust
does not enter the OS32C.
Always detach all cables from the OS32C before replacing the scan window. Otherwise the motor
may start rotating, resulting in injuries.
The window replacement procedure must only be performed by qualified personnel in a clean
environment at ambient temperature (5 to 35°C) to prevent the internal optical surface from
contamination. Make sure the inside and the outside of the replacement window is clean and free
from scratch, dust, and finger print.
The calibration procedure must only be performed by qualified personnel. Before performing
window calibration of the new scan window, make sure the window is clean and free from scratch,
dust, and finger print. The window calibration procedure must be performed at ambient
temperature 5 to 35°C. Failure to inspect the window or set the proper environmental condition
during window calibration procedure may cause a reduction in the detection capability of the scanner.
The tests outlined in the Test Procedure (See "Checkout and Test Procedure Log" in p.162) must
be performed at time of installation, according to the employer's regular inspection program and
after any maintenance, tooling change, set up, adjustment, or modification to the OS32C system or
the guarded machine. Where a guarded machine is used by multiple operators or shifts, it is
suggested that the test procedure be performed at each shift or operation change and also if there is a
change in the OS32C operating mode or defined zone sets. Testing ensures that the safety laser scanner and
the machine control system are working properly to stop the machine. Failure to test properly could result in
serious injury to personnel.
If the OS32C is operated under automatic start, make sure that the machine stops and does not
restart as long as an object is detected in a safety zone. Check the operation by placing a test
piece into the safety zone. It is recommended to perform the test at least after a shift change or 24
hours of operation.
If the safety system or the machine fails any of these tests, do not run the machine. Immediately
tag or lock out the machine to prevent its use and notify the appropriate supervisor.
System and zone status parameters monitored over EtherNet/IP are to be used for diagnostic
purposes only, and must not be used in safety-critical functions.
Measurement data monitored over EtherNet/IP are to be used for diagnostic purposes only, and
must not be used in safety-critical functions.

Theory of Operation
The OS32C safety laser scanner is an optical safety sensor that uses diffuse reflection of a pulsed laser light
to determine the location of objects entering a predefined monitoring zone. Internally, a spinning mirror
assembly scans a monitoring zone by sending a pulse of light which reflects off the first object in its path. The
distance from the sensor to the object is determined by measuring the time that the light requires to return
from the sensed object.
This method of sensing allows for standard, simple or irregular shapes to be used as the predetermined
sensed monitoring zones. It also allows for the monitoring zone to be changed if the hazardous area changes.
Using diffused reflection of light back to the OS32C precludes the need for a traditional transmitter/receiver
pair.
Within the sensing range of the OS32C, three fields can be monitored simultaneously: One safety zone and
two warning zones.
• One Safety Zone is used to detect personnel or other objects entering an area that has been determined to
be a hazard. Upon sensing that the object is within the Safety Zone, the OS32C will send a stop signal to the
control circuitry of the machine being guarded.
• Two Warning Zones can be defined with a longer distance than a safety zone, allowing a configuration to
detect objects that are closely approaching the hazardous area of the Safety Zone before the actual Safety
Zone is encroached.
Applications for the OS32C include mobile applications on automatic guided vehicles (AGV) or transfer carts
as well as stationary use, such as within a robotic work cell, in front of a press or around other hazardous
machinery.

warning zones with a radius of 15 m, covering a maximum scan angle of 270°.
• When an object is detected within the safety zone, individual sector indicators immediately turn on (8 red
indicators), indicating the object’s position of intrusion.
• Seventy sets of safety zone and warning zone combinations are available, supporting complicated changes
of working environments.
• The configuration tool allows easy to use monitoring zone configuration.
• A safety relay can be directly monitored by the external device monitoring function.
• The physical mounting position of the safety laser scanner can be monitored by the reference boundary
monitoring function.
• Compact design allows for low-clearance installations.

Application Examples
The OS32C may be used for personnel safeguarding. Typical applications include work cell area guarding
and collision prevention of AGV (Automated Guided Vehicles). The OS32C is a versatile Safety Laser
Scanner capable of guarding many types of applications. The application examples in this chapter are for
informational and instructional purposes only and not intended to represent complete guarding solutions.
Care must be taken to ensure that all aspects of a machine or work cell are reviewed and appropriate
guarding techniques are employed.

Zone A
Zone B
Fig. 1-2 Dual Zone Area Guarding
In this application the OS32C is the primary guarding device, using a horizontal protective field for area
protection. The OS32C will guard one side of the area based on the robot’s position. This application
takes advantage of the multi-zone functions of the OS32C. This function allows an operator to enter
and set-up on one side “the safe side” shown as Zone A, while the robot performs its tasks on the
“hazardous side” shown as Zone B. The warning zones are represented by the lighter colors. The
robot’s position is determined via external devices that provide discrete inputs to the OS32C.

Zone B
Fig. 1-3 270 deg. Area Guarding
In this application the OS32C is the primary guarding device, using a 270 degree horizontal protective
field for area protection guarding. The production process in this example does not allow for any frontal
hard guarding obstructions in front of the work cell. The warning fields (shown as Zone A & Zone B) of
the OS32C provides manufacturing personnel with a preliminary warning to prevent them from
accidentally stopping the manufacturing process. In some cases an unintentional interruption can
result in very high waste costs.

In this application the OS32C is the secondary guarding device in conjunction with a safety light
curtain. The OS32C is responsible for detecting that the work area is clear before start-up of the robot
occurs.
Fig. 1-5 Vertical Guarding Installation
In this application the OS32C is the primary guarding device, using a vertical protective field for point of
operation guarding. In some cases the machine’s architecture or production flow may not permit the
installation of a safety light curtain. The OS32C meets all the requirements of IEC 61496-3 for vertical
guarding installations and employs a reference boundary monitoring function.

Zone-1
Zone-2
In this application the OS32C is the primary guarding device, using a vertical protective field for entry
presence detection. The OS32C can guard the hazardous area based on the robot’s position. When
the robot is in the left side, the OS32C guards the left side and changes to the right side along with the
robot. This application takes advantage of the multi-zone functions of the OS32C. This function allows
an operator to enter and set-up on one side, “the safe side”, while the robot performs its tasks on the
hazardous side. The robot’s position is determined via external devices that provide discrete inputs to
the OS32C. The OS32C meets all the requirements of IEC 61496-3 for vertical guarding installations
and employs a reference boundary monitoring function.
Applying the OS32C on Automated Guided Vehicles (AGV)
Unmanned automated vehicles require guarding devices to prevent accidental collisions. The OS32C
will scan the path of the AGV and will send a stop signal to the vehicle if it detects an object or person.
The OS32C is more adjustable and reliable than conventional pressure-sensitive bumpers.The
OS32C's flexibility allows three types of monitoring.
See Fig. 1-7
Warning Zone 1 Detection
When the Warning Output is assigned to follow Warning Zone 1, it will send a signal to the AGV when
Warning Zone 1 is infringed. This will trigger the vehicle to sound an alarm, allowing a person to move
away from the vehicle’s path.
Warning Zone 2 Detection
When the Auxiliary Output is assigned to follow warning zone 2, it will send a signal to the AGV when
Warning Zone 2 is infringed. This will trigger the vehicle to slow down, allowing a person to move away
from the vehicle’s path.
Safety Zone Detection
The two safety outputs will send an E-stop to the AGV when the Safety Zone is infringed. This will
signal the vehicle to come to a complete stop.
In this application two OS32Cs are the primary guarding devices. The two warning fields of the OS32C
are used to give personnel extra warning, allowing them to move out of the AGV path. This is essential
in achieving maximum travel efficiency.
Left Turn Zone
Right Turn Zone

Fig. 1-9 Automated Guided Vehicles, Multiple Zones (AGV)
In this application the OS32C is the primary guarding device. The drawing illustrates a common AGV
guarding configuration where 4 zone sets are used to safely navigate the vehicle around a factory floor.
The four zone sets consist of two for forward motion (high speed, low speed), one for left turn and one
for right turn. The active safety zone set is selected by the AGV’s controls, which are configured for
maximum efficiency.
