• Parallel approach to the danger zone
When the direction of approach is parallel to the detection
area, the minimum safety distance "S" between the
dangerous zone and the beam furthest away from the
dangerous zone, depends on height "H" at which the
light curtain is installed. This safety distance "S" must be
calculated using the following formula :
For mm :

The maximum height allowed "H" is 1000 mm (39.37 in).
Once the height "H" is above 300 mm (11.81 in),
additional protective devices must be used.
• Angular approach to the danger zone

detection area form an angle α, then the formulas to be
used to calculate the safety distance "S" depends on this

• Installation near a reflective surface
Potential reflective surfaces include lacquered steel panels, shiny sheet metal or stainless steel. This
reflective surface must be taken into account if it causes unwanted light rays which could make the
beam go around the obstacle to be detected. It is necessary then to take into account a minimum
distance "dr" between the axes of the nearest beam and the reflective surface. This distance is
measured from the mid-point between the transmitter and the receiver (range "L").

XUSL Safety Light Curtain
ANSI B11.1:
This formula applies specifically to the guarding of mechanical power presses, but it is typically used
on other applications as well.
Ds = K x (Ts + Tc + Tr + Tbm) + D
Ds = ... Minimum safe distance between the light curtain sensing area to the nearest point of
operation potential hazard.
K =..... Hand speed constant of 63 inches per second. This is the standard minimum accepted value
for both ANSI and OSHA. ANSI recognizes this constant may not be optimal, and that the
user should consider all factors before deciding on the value of the K factor to use in the above
formula.
Ts=..... Stop time of the machine (press), as measured from the final control element. It is measured
at the maximum velocity of the press, usually at 90° of press rotation on the downstroke.
Tc=..... Response time of the control circuit to activate the braking system.
Note: Ts and Tc are usually measured as one value by a stop time measurement device.
Tr= ..... Response time of the light curtain.
Tbm= ... Additional time allowed for the brake monitor to compensate for wear and variations in the
stopping time. Brake monitors will stop the machine (press) when the stop time of the
machinery exceeds a pre-set limit.
Note: ... If a brake monitor is not installed on the machine, a factor must to be added to the
measured stop time to include brake wear. Generally , brake monitors add approximately
20% to 25% additional stop time. To determine the actual factor to be used, contact
machine manufacturer.
Dpf=.... Penetration depth factor, to provide for possible penetration through the sensing field by
fingers or hands before detection occurs. This value is determined by the Penetration Depth
Factor Chart from ANSI B11.1 (see Penetration Depth Factor Calculator graph on the next
page). Alternately, the following ANSI formula can be used: Dpf = 3.4 (S-0.276), where S =
minimum object sensitivity.
Example:
For devices with minimum object sensitivity of 14 mm (0.55 in):

This formula applies specifically to the guarding of mechanical power presses, but it is typically used
on other applications as well.
Ts = .... Stopping time of the press measured at approximately 90° position of the crankshaft rotation
(seconds). Stop time of the machine (press), as measured from the final control element.
It is measured to determine worst case time and maximum velocity of the press. Usually at
90° of press rotation on the downstroke.
In addition to the formula above, we recommend that OSHA 1910.217 Table O-10 be followed and
the distance be added to "Ds". Per OSHA, the table on the next page shows the maximum width of
openings allowed for a guard based on the distance from the guard (light curtain) to the point of
operation hazard. The Maximum Width of opening in the table below corresponds to the Minimum
Object Sensitivity for a light curtain. When the distance is determined from this table, based on the
42
Te
s
XUSL Safety Light Curtain
Minimum Object Sensitivity of the light curtain used, this distance is added to the minimum safe
distance from the previous calculations for "Ds" in this section.
Example:Using the formula: Ds = 1600 mm (63 in) per second x T
if Ts = 0.10 sec
Ds = 1600 mm (63 in) X 0.10 = 160 mm (6.3 in)
• For an XUSL light curtain with a minimum object sensitivity of 14 mm (0.55 in):
Using the example above, the separation distance from the point of operation hazard to the light
curtain would be 160 mm (6.3 in) + a minimum distance (from table O-10) of 89 mm (3.5 in), for
a total separation distance of 249 mm (9.8 in). The 3.5 inches was chosen from Table O-10 as the
additional distance because the opening (minimum object sensitivity) is .55 inches. Since 0.55 inch
is larger than 1/2 (0.50) inches, the value for 0.50 inch cannot be used. Therefore the next larger
opening, 5/8, must be used and the distance corresponding to 5/8 opening is 3
• For an XUSL light curtain with a minimum object sensitivity of 29 mm (1.14 in) :
Using the example above, the separation distance from the point of operation hazard to the light
curtain would be 160 mm (6.3 in) + a minimum distance (from table O-10) of 191 mm (7.5 in), for
a total separation distance of 351 mm (13.8 in). The 7.5 inches was chosen from Table O-10 as
the additional distance because the opening (minimum object sensitivity) is 1.14 inches. Since 1.14
inches is larger than 7/8 inches, the value for 7/8 inches cannot be used. Therefore the next larger
opening, 1

XUSL Safety Light Curtain
2Description of the XUSL safety light curtain
2-1Operating principle
XUSL light curtains consist of a transmitter and receiver which face each other. The transmitter emits
coded infrared beams. When the receiver sees these beams it verifies that the signals and codes are
correct. After all beams have been received and verified, the light curtain is ready to be started. The
light curtain can then be started either automatically or by reset button, which closes the OSSD
outputs to allow the machine to operate. If any of the infrared beams are broken, the outputs (OSSD's)
are opened, sending a stop command to the machine.
2-2 Environmental considerations
• Robust housing with enclosure rating IP 65
• Electrical power supply
E
N
G
L
I
S
H
The XUSLA light curtain are entirely galvanically isolated (power supply, input, output). Thus
the XUSLA light curtain are not susceptible to interference due to power supply grounding
problems or by currents circulating in the chassis grounds.
• Resistance to spurious light (flashing lights, flashing rotating lights, welding flashes and sparks)
Due to their specially designed safety circuits, the XUSL light curtain have a standard reinforced
function making them insensitive to interference.
• Interference by other safety light curtain
Each curtain (transmitter + receiver pair) has its’ own factory-assigned code. Due to this coding
system, even the considerable influence of another light curtain will not lead to improper
operation. The XUSL light curtain meets the most severe requirements of the most recently
developed European standards concerning Electro-sensitive Protection Equipment (ESPE)

• AUTO/MANU Function:
In automatic mode, as soon as all beams are cleared, the XUSL light curtain can be reset and the
outputs (OSSD) close (ON state).
In manual mode, the reset circuit must be closed for more than 40 ms and released to reset the light
curtain (changing the OSSD safety outputs to an ON state).
Reminder of the machinery directive :
Automatic transition of the light curtain to the ON state, should not cause
the machine to automatically restart. Restarting a machine should only be
possible by an intentional operator action.
To do so, it is imperative that the re-start button of the machine be put in a
place where :
1- the operator cannot access the dangerous zone,
2-the operator can see the whole protected zone.
• EDM* Function (norms EN61496-1 and EN50100 option)
This function allows for the state (as well as the response time know as EDMT) of the power
components controlled by the outputs of the XUSL safety curtain to be permanently monitored.
*EDM .. stands for External Device Monitoring per standard EN61495 (or EN51100) as well as
the reponse time known as EDMT.

XUSL Safety Light Curtain
4Setting Up
4-1Operating Mode
TRANSMITTER
The transmitter has a panel which indicates its status. This panel
contains two LEDs as shown in the diagram to the left.
The XUSL light curtain has 3 operating modes :
TEST
HE1
• Indicators :
HE1 - red - Test,
HE2 - green - switched on.
HE2
The factory default output configuration blocks the test operation (shunt
between 5-6 terminals)
• Test mode : The use of this mode is neither obligatory nor
indispensable as the XUSL light curtain carries out continuous
self-checks (type 4 safety). The test function can be triggered at
any time to test the light curtain as well as the machine’s entire
safety shut-down mechanism. It causes :
- the red (test) LED (HR1) of the transmitter to light up,
- the XUSL safety curtain’s safety outputs (OSSD) to open
and the red LED (HR1) on the receiver to light up.
- the green LED (HR2) to go out.

passes through...) then cleared, the receiver moves successively
through the following mode :
- MANU mode : on stand-by to restart, red and yellow LED's
lit up (receiver).
- AUTO mode : reset (OSSD's turn on), green LED lights up

When the detection field is interrupted by passing or holding a
hand or an object between the two units (transmitter and
receiver), the number of the first beam broken (1 to 192) is
displayed. The red LED (HR1) lights up and the OSSD outputs
open (the machine stops). The displayed number changes with
the position of the hand or object .
Note :.. beam 1 is closest to the display. The light curtain is
fitted with a system for self-testing its status. Should a
malfunction occur, the light curtain displays the
corresponding message (see section 6-3-1) and stops
the machine.
• Dialogue mode : this is the working mode in which the OSSD
safety outputs are open and the dangerous movements of the
machine are stopped. In this mode, the XUSL light curtain can
be switched to the following modes :
- DIAGNOSTIC (DIAG) : allows for a functional diagnosis to be
made and in the case of a break down to identify the faulty
component(s) (see section 6-3).
- INSTALLATION (INST) : readjusts the light curtain’s alignment
using the indications of the display panel for optimal alignment
(see section 4-2-3).
- READ : allows you to read the configuration and information
internal to the light curtain.
- CONFIGURATION (CONF) : allows the user to verify and
alter (modify) :
- the light curtain’s code (NAME)
- the time limit for closing EDM
- the configuration of the light curtain (detection capability,
AUTO/MANU selection ...) (see section 4-2-2).
- DISTANCE (REMO) : allows for communication between the
light curtain and a PC via a RS485 link (see section 4-2-4).

EDM stands for External Device Monitoring per standard EN 61495 (or EN 50100). This consists of
monitoring the function (open or closed) of the machine's power circuit switching components. EDMT
stands for the External Device Monitoring Time, and monitors the time it takes for the machine's
power switching components to open or close.
• Changing the setting of the CTRL parameter (EDM or NEDM)
Same principle as for MODE, the 2 available states for CTRL are EDM and NEDM.
• Changing the setting of the EDMT parameter
Same principle as before, the available values of EDMT go from 200 to 500 ms (in 50 ms increments).
To scroll through them, press ➀. Confirm with ➁.
• Changing the identification code : NAME
The transmitter and receiver cyclically exchange the identification code to check that they are indeed
a matched set.
NAME only needs to be changed when replacing one of the components (transmitter or receiver).
The 4 character NAME is printed on a label under the locking flap of the window and on the device
label.
The procedure for entering the identification code is identical to that of entering the password in the
configuration menu :
- ➀ to scroll through the values by digit,
- ➁ to change digit. The available codes range from 0000 to FFFF.
• No changing the parameter : SENS
Only an indication of the capability detection.
• No changing the parameter : SIZE
Only an indication of the member of optical module are used.
• Erase the EDM or OSSD errors following maintenance operations
OSSD and EDM are the two types of faults which must be cleared from the memory of the light curtain
after maintenance operations to be able to resart the light curtain. To erase one of the faults:
- enter the ERAS sub-menu,
- choose the value to be erased using ➀,
- confirm with ➁.

6-1Periodic Maintenance : testing with the test rod
It is recommended that you test beam interruption by moving the test rod (delivered with the XUSL
light curtain) around the protected height, checking that the
red LED (HE1) (receiver) remains lit and that the display
panel gives a 3 digit number which varies as the rod is
moved about. The 3 digit number corresponds to the number
of the individual beam that is broken.
The frequency of this test needs to be determined by the
user's safety advisor (see section 6-4) and the local
regulation.
Note : this test enables you to check the whole safety shutdown mechanism of the machine.
6-2 Preventative maintenance
The types of applications for which the XUSL light curtain is used will define the frequency of the
cleaning of the PMMA window.

6-4 Test Procedure – United States
Test procedure :
The tests below must be performed by qualified personnel (per ANSI B30.2 - 1993) at or after the
following:
- after installation and before the machine is commissioned,
- at regular inspections determined by the employer,
- after any maintenance, adjustment, or modification to the light curtain or machine,
- after tooling or fixture changes.
We also recommend the following test procedure be performed daily or at each shift change.
Test procedure :
1. Turn off machine. Turn on light curtain.
2. Check machine to make sure that all guarding is firmly in place, operates properly, and the
only access to the hazardous area is through the area protected by the light curtain.
3. Check that light curtain mounting meets or exceeds the minimum safety distance from the
nearest hazardous area (pinch point). Verify the light curtain is mounted securely to a rigid
mounting surface.
4. Check for damage to mounting brackets, mounting surface, wiring, or mirrors (if used). If any
damage is found, the machine should be locked out* until it is repaired.
5. Verify the operator cannot position themselves between the hazardous area (pinch point) and
the light curtain. If this is possible, additional guarding must be installed.
6. Check distance between hazardous area and light curtain sensing area to verify it meets or
exceeds the minimum safety distance
7. Insert test rod (round rod supplied with each light curtain) into the protected (sensing) area
and move the test object throughout the entire protected area (top, bottom, sides, and
vertically up and down in the middle of the sensing area). The red light should be on and a
three digit number should appear on the display. This three digit number indicates the
individual beam that is broken.
8. Remove the test rod and start up the machine. With the machine running, insert the test object
into the sensing area and verify the machine stops immediately.
9. With the test rod still in the sensing area, verify the machine cannot be re-started.
10. Remove the test rod from the sensing area and verify the machine cannot be re-started except
when the proper start-up sequence has been followed
11. Check the stopping mechanisms (including brakes) to verify proper working condition.
12. If any of the above tests do not give the indicated results, the machine should be locked out*
until it is repaired. Then run the above tests (I through 12) again.
