Perimeter Guarding with a Grid System

Gate Monitoring with a Hinged Interlock

Overview

  • Suited to a variety of access and long-range perimeter guarding applications
  • Uses 2, 3, or 4 beams to protect personnel and machinery
  • Available with beams spaced from 300 to 584 mm, depending on model
  • Operates in ranges from 0.8 to 20 m or 15 to 70 m, depending on model
  • Displays operating status, configuration and error codes
  • Includes blocked beam zone indicators
  • Features user-configurable trip or latch outputs and Scan Code 1 or 2
  • Can be combined with other devices, such as mirrors and Points, for a custom configuration
  • Resists impact, twisting and abusive environments with a durable aluminum housing and metal end caps
  • Rated IEC 61496-1 Type 4
  • Offers optional lens shields and enclosures for added durability

Product Specifications

Supply Voltage (V in)24V dc ±15% (SELV), 10% max. ripple
Supply CurrentEmitter:150 mA max.
Receiver:500 mA max., exclusive of OSSD1 and OSSD2 loads (up to an additional 0.5 A each)
Short Circuit ProtectionAll inputs and outputs are protected from short circuits to +24V dc or dc common (except Emitter AUX power connections)
Emitter ElementsInfrared LEDs, 880 nm at peak emission
Operating RangeShort-range models:0.8 to 20 m
Long-range models:15 to 70 m
Note:Range decreases with use of mirrors and/or lens shields.
Beam SpacingSG...4-300 models:300 mm
SG...3-400 models:400 mm
SG...2-500 models:500 mm
SG...3-533 models:533.4 mm
SG...2-584 models:584.2 mm
Beam Diameter25 mm
Response Time24 milliseconds or less from interruption of light grid beam to safety outputs going to OFF-state
Reset InputThe Reset input must be high for 0.25 to 2 seconds and then low to reset the receiver.
High signal:10 to 30V dc @ 30 mA typical
Low signal:0 to 3V dc
Closed switch time:0 .25 to 2 seconds
Remote Test InputTest mode is activated either by applying a low signal (less than 3V dc) to emitter TEST #1 terminal for a minimum of 50 milliseconds, or by opening a switch connected between TEST #1 and TEST #2 for a minimum of 50 milliseconds. Beam scanning stops to simulate a blocked condition. A high signal (10 to 30V dc, 35 mA inrush, 10 mA max.) at TEST #1 terminal deactivates Test mode and allows the emitter to operate normally. Test #1 and Test #2 are factory jumpered.
EDM Input+24V dc signals from external device contacts can be monitored (one-channel, two-channel or no monitoring) using EDM1 and EDM2 terminals in the receiver. Monitored devices must respond within 200 milliseconds of an output change.
Safety OutputsTwo redundant solid-state 24V dc, 0.5 A max. sourcing OSSD (Output Signal Switching Device) safety outputs.

(Use optional interface modules for ac or larger dc loads.)

Capable of the Banner “Safety Handshake”.
ON-state voltage:greater than or equal to Vin-1.5V dc
OFF-state voltage:1.2V dc max.
Max. load resistance:1000 ohms
Max. load capacitance:0.1 µF

Cables and ConnectionsCables are user-supplied. Wiring terminals accommodate one 22 to 16 ga. wire or two wires up to 18 ga.; Pg13.5 wiring chamber access port capacity varies, depending on cable gland or strain relief fitting used. Supplied cable gland is for a cable diameter of 6 to 12 mm.
Mounting HardwareEmitter and receiver each are supplied with a pair of swivel end-mounting brackets. Mounting brackets are 8-gauge cold-rolled steel, black zinc finish.
Shock and VibrationEZ-SCREEN components have passed vibration and shock tests according to IEC 61496-1 and -2. This includes vibration (10 cycles) of 10-55 Hz at 0.35 mm single amplitude (0.70 mm peak-to-peak) and shock of 10 g for 16 milliseconds (6,000 cycles).
Operating ConditionsTemperature:0° to +50° C
