Safe radar sensor PSENradar

Safe radar sensors are used where optoelectronic sensors reach their limits: rugged environments, such as outdoors or in material processing for example, can be monitored safely using PSENradar. That’s because radar technology (FMCW: frequency modulated continuous wave) ensures high availability even where there are external influences such as dust, dirt, rain, light, sparks or vibrations. http://www.pilz.com

The safe radar sensor PSENradar, in conjunction with the configurable small controller PNOZmulti 2, offers a safe, complete solution for protection zone monitoring – including conformity assessment for the plant or machine. The underlying volumetric monitoring with a frequency of 24 – 24.25 GHz can be used up to SIL 2, PL d and Category 3, which is often a requirement in robot applications. The complete solution also has additional interfaces, such as Ethernet and Profisafe, so making it easy to use the safety radar sensor in retrofit applications. http://www.pilz.com

The appropriate protection zone can be defined for each sensor, based on the size of the area to be monitored. This depends on the positioning, installation height and inclination of the sensor. A warning zone can also be configured in addition to the protection zone. If a person violates the warning zone, this may be signalled by an optical signal, for example. This way, productivity of the plant can always be kept at a high level.

Safety laser scanner PSENscan

The safety laser scanner PSENscan offers two-dimensional area monitoring with an opening angle of 275 degrees and a protected field range of up to 5.5 metres. Thanks to the free configuration of warning fields and protected fields, plus the ability to adapt to structural conditions, the safety laser scanners are ideal for integrating into the widest range of applications. The safety laser scanner PSENscan is especially suitable for stationary and mobile area guarding as well as access monitoring. http://www.pilz.com

Safety laser scanners PSENscan detect when a person approaches a hazardous movement. If a warning field is accessed, there is controlled braking of the hazardous movement; if the protected field is accessed, the movement is stopped. Where it is difficult to see into danger zones, safety laser scanners PSENscan detect a person’s current location. So they effectively prevent the hazardous movement from re-starting. The safety laser scanners PSENscan provide optimum protection against people entering at access points to danger zones. Thanks to integrated muting inputs, they are also suitable for applications in which material is transported in and out simultaneously.

Safety switches with guard locking

The safety gate cannot be opened until all hazardous machine movements are stopped. A restart is not possible until the safety gate is closed and locked. It must not be possible to either defeat or manipulate the safeguards. Movable guards such as swing gates and sliding gates, flaps or covers, can be found in almost every application. If there are dangerous overrun movements, a safety locking device with appropriate manipulation protection in accordance with EN ISO 14119 is required. Reliable and efficient protection of safeguards includes not only the safety locking device but also an additional control unit and suitable wiring and control technology. Pilz safety sensors can be connected in series and are compatible with other products and interfaces. They perfectly fit into their plant environment and also enable Pilz components to be retrofitted to your plant. http://www.pilz.com

Safe position monitoring

For position monitoring with an actuator you can use the magnetic safety switches PSENmag and the coded safety switch PSENcode. With the version of the coded safety switch PSEN csx.19, up to three positions can be safely monitored and differentiated. The introduction of safe position monitoring refers to the implementation of systems that track and monitor the position of objects or individuals in order to ensure their safety. This is particularly crucial in various industries where the exact location of equipment or personnel is essential for preventing accidents or ensuring proper functioning of machinery. By accurately monitoring the position of objects, organizations can identify potential risks, optimize workflows, and implement measures to prevent mishaps. Safe position monitoring systems utilize sensors to gather data and provide real-time information, allowing for quick response and intervention when necessary. http://www.pilz.com

The importance of safe position monitoring cannot be overstated, as it plays a critical role in safeguarding individuals and equipment in various industries. By implementing effective monitoring systems, organizations can significantly reduce the risk of accidents and injuries. Safe position monitoring enables organizations to identify hazards, prevent collisions, and ensure compliance with safety regulations. Moreover, it helps optimize operations by providing data on the location and movement of objects or personnel. This information allows organizations to enhance efficiency, minimize downtime, and prevent costly errors or delays.
