2.2Intended use
The Safe Entry Exit safety system is used in hazardous areas with material transporta‐
t
ion via a conveyor (e.g., conveyor belt), e.g., a robot cell. Safe Entry Exit reduces the
risk of personal injury caused by passing through the machine’s material transporta‐
tion. Safe Entry Exit can be used both at the entry area as well as the exit area of the
material transportation.
SAFETY INFORMATION 2
Safe Entry Exit is suitable for applications with the following properties:
The material is moved by a conveyor into the hazardous area.
•
The conveyor moves at a defined speed (maximum of 4 different speeds) during
•
the transportation of the material.
The material is at least 500 mm long.
•
The length of the material is always identical or can be determined automatically
•
(e.g. via a combination of existing process signals).
2.3Requirements for the qualification of personnel
The protective device must be configured, installed, connected, commissioned, and ser‐
iced by qualified safety personnel only.

3.2Application description
The Safe Entry Exit safety system is used on machines in which it is not possible to
ent
er the hazardous area as long as the machine is in a dangerous state. Appropriate
protective devices (e.g., fixed guards) prevent access to the hazardous area. The haz‐
ardous area can only be accessed via an opening that enables the material to pass
through via the conveyor.
Safe Entry Exit is used to monitor the opening provided for material transport and to
place the machine in the safe state if anything other than the expected material passes
through the opening. To accomplish this, the safety system monitors the time it takes
for the expected material to pass through the Type 4 electro-sensitive protective device,
but not the height of the material, see "Construction and function", page 14.

3.4.4Requirements for the higher-level control
The signals of the higher-level control are part of the initiation of the muting function.
T
he higher-level control can be a standard programmable logic controller that controls
the machine process or an existing safety controller.
The control requires information about the position and speed of the material on the
conveyor. If material with different sizes is transported, the size of the current material
must also be available.
This information must be processed such that the programmable logic controller can
change the status of the signals according to the sequence. Moreover, this information
must also originate from a source that is difficult to manipulate.
Recommended sources are, for example:
Code reader
•
Process information
•
...
•
The entire chain of signal generation must exhibit at least a MTTFd value of three years.
According to EN ISO 13849-1, a MTTFd value of ten years must be assumed for the indi‐
vidual components of the chain if no manufacturer information is available and simple
determination according to appendix C and D is not possible.
PRODUCT DESCRIPTION 3
Examples:
Example 1: In a chain of three non-safe components with an assumed MTTFd value of
10 years, this results in a total MTTFdvalue of 3.3 years. Such a chain is permitted.
Example 2: In a chain of four non-safe components with an assumed MTTFd value of
10 years, this results in a total MTTFdvalue of 2.5 years. Such a chain is not permitted.
If PL e is required, the higher-level control and signal source must also correspond to
PL e and have a MTTFd value of at least 100 a.
Measures must be taken with regard to the voltage supply for the higher-level control so
as to prevent voltage drops, voltage fluctuations, as well as overcurrent and undercur‐
rent.
The wiring of the signals SR (Muting Request) and TE (Time Extension) influences the
safety application and must be validated at the time of commissioning.
3.4.5Requirements for the electro-sensitive protective device
The Type 4 electro-sensitive protective device must meet the requirements of EN ISO
61496-1 and ha
out in accordance with EN ISO 13855.
If the Type 4 electro-sensitive protective device has additional functions that affect the
direct relationship between the status of the output signal switching devices and the
interruption of the protective field by the material being conveyed, these must be deac‐
tivated.
ve an MTTFd value of at least 100 a. The positioning must be carried
Such functions are, for example, integrated reset functions.
This does not apply to functions – for example a blanking function – that ignore contin‐
uously interrupted signal pathways.
The following must also be taken into account:
The penetration distance required to calculate the minimum distance depends on
•
the resolution of the Type 4 electro-sensitive protective device.
The approach speed of the material depends on the speed of the conveyor.
•
If it is possible to step onto the conveyor, the speed at which a person is moving
•
must be considered in the calculation.

NOTE
his safety system only covers the positioning of a Type 4 electro-sensitive protective
T
device for monitoring an opening for material transport. The positioning of other equip‐
ment, such as safety fences, is not covered.
3.5Construction and function
Functionality
he Type 4 electro-sensitive protective device monitors the material opening. When a
T
light beam is unexpectedly interrupted, the safety controller outputs a dual-channel sig‐
nal to place the machine in the safe state.
When material on the conveyor approaches the opening, the material is identified (e.g.
via a combination of existing process signals) or is known to the higher-level control
because of process information. Based on the type of material and speed of the con‐
veyor, an exact time window is determined during which the material will pass through
the opening and therefore also pass by the Type 4 electro-sensitive protective device.
The higher-level control sends the safety controller a signal to request the muting func‐
tion. When the muting function is active, an interruption of the Type 4 electro-sensitive
protective device does not cause the machine to stop. While the material is passing
through the opening, the safety controller continues to monitor the signals from the
Type 4 electro-sensitive protective device. If the actual duration of the interruption dif‐
fers from the expected duration, the machine is placed in the safe state.
Error-free ending of the muting function is performed by the Type 4 electro-sensitive
protective device being released along with the respective signal change of the higherlevel control.
Complementary information
W
hen the muting function is requested, the safety controller expects an interruption of
the Type 4 electro-sensitive protective device. This interruption must take place within
the initialization time window, otherwise this is seen as an error and the muting func‐
tion is not started (see "Conveyor speed", page 19 ).
3.6Limits of the safety system
The safety system ends at all inputs and outputs that are not used to wire the compo‐
nent
s of the safety system.

azard due to lack of effectiveness of the protective device
In the case of non-compliance, it is possible that the dangerous state of the machine
may not be stopped or not stopped in a timely manner.
Use of the safety system requires a risk assessment. Check whether additional
b
protective measures are required.
Comply with the applicable national regulations derived from the application (e.g.,
b
work safety regulations, safety rules, or other relevant safety guidelines).
The safety system was developed under consideration of typical application cases. A
tial safety function can be implemented with the safety system in these application
par
cases. The manufacturer must check whether the safety system is suitable for its spe‐
cific application case (risk assessment).
If the thorough check shows that the safety system is not suitable for the specific appli‐
cation case, the safety system can be used as a basis for an individualized develop‐
ment suitable for the specific application case. This case will not be considered further
in this document.
In any event, additional work is necessary for the safety system to be used, e.g. subse‐
quent configuration of the safety controller.
The manufacturer has the following duties:
Executing a risk assessment.
b
Verifying and validating the safety functions.
b
Integrating the individual components in accordance with the appropriate stan‐
b
dards.
Please note that C standards have priority compared to statements about this
