Alert Statements in this Manual
INSTRUCTION SHEET
Regarding the alert symbols and meani ngs used for the safe uses
In order for our customers to use the F3SJ in safety, precautions are indicated in
this manual with the alert symbols and statements such as the followings. Those
safety precautions relate to the important descriptions that must be obeyed for
the safe uses and operations. Be sure to obey the precautions. The following
indictions and symbols are used for the descriptions.
The F3SJ must be installed, configured, and incorporated into a machine
control system by a sufficiently trained and qualified person. An unqualified
person may not be able to perform these operations properly, which
may cause a person to go undetected, resulting in serious injury.
Do not use this sensor for machines that cannot be stopped by electrical
control. For example, do not use it for a pressing machine that uses
full-rotation clutch. Otherwise, the machine may not stop before a
person reaches the hazardous part, resulting in serious injury.
Make sure to test the operation of the F3SJ after installation to verify that
the F3SJ operates as intended. Make sure to stop the machine until the test
is complete. Unintended function settings may cause a person to go
undetected, resulting in serious injury.
Install a protective structure so that the hazardous part of a machine can only
be reached by passing through the sensor's detection zone. Install the sensors
so that part of the person is always present in the detection zone when
working in a machine's hazardous areas. If a person is able step into the
hazardous area of a machine and remain behind the F3SJ's detection zone,
configure the system with an interlock function that prevents the machine
from being restarted. Failure to do so may result in serious injury.
Do not use the auxiliary output or external indicator output for safety applications.
Human body may not be detected when F3SJ fails, resulting in serious injury.
Make sure to install the F3SJ at the safe distance from the hazardous part of
the equipment. Otherwise, the machine may not stop before a person
reaches the hazardous part, resulting in serious injury.
Install the interlock reset switch in a location that provides a clear view of the entire
hazardous area and where it cannot be activated from within the hazardous area.
The F3SJ cannot protect a person from an object flying from a hazardous
area. Install protective cover(s) or fence(s).
Use independent 2 input devices for muting inputs.
You must install F3SJ, muting sensor, and physical barrier so that an
operator should not enter hazardous zone.
The muting and override functions disable the safety functions of the device.
You must ensure safety using other method when these functions are operating.
Install muting sensors so that they can distinguish between the object that is being
allowed to pass through the detection zone and a person. If the muting function
is activated by the detection of a person, it may result in serious injury.
Muting lamps (external indicators) that indicate the state of the muting and
override functions must be installed where they are clearly visible to
workers from all the operating positions.
Install the sensor system so that it is not affected by the reflective surface
of the F3SJ.
Make sure that the F3SJ is securely mounted and its cables and connectors
are properly connected.
Make sure that foreign material such as water, oil, or dust does not enter
the F3SJ or the connector while the cap is removed.
When using more than 1 set of F3SJ, install them so that mutual
interference does not occur, such as by configuring series connections or
using physical barriers between adjacent sets.
Do not use the sensor system with mirrors in a retro-reflective
configuration. Doing so may hinder detection. It is possible to use mirrors
to "bend" the detection zone to a 90-degree angle.
Perform an inspection for all F3SJ as described in "Chapter 5 Checklists" of
User’s manual. When using series connections,perform inspections for
every connected F3SJ.
Connect the load between the output and 0V line (PNP output). Connecting
the load between the output and +24V line will result in a dangerous
condition because operation is reversed to ON when blocked.
Do not short-circuit the output line to the +24V line. Otherwise, the output
is always ON. Also, the 0V of the power supply must be grounded so that
output does not turn ON due to grounding of the output line.
Configure the system by using the optimal number of safety outputs that
satisfy the requirements of the necessary safety category.
Do not connect each line of F3SJ to a DC power supply of more than
24VDC+20%. Also, do not connect to an AC power supply. Failure to do
so may result in electric shock.
Double or reinforced insulation from hazardous voltage must be applied to all
input and output lines. Failure to do so may result in electric shock.
Do not try to disassemble, repair, or modify this product. Doing so may
cause the safety functions to stop working properly.
Do not use the F3SJ in environments where flammable or explosive
gases are present. Doing so may result in explosion.
Perform daily and 6-month inspections for the F3SJ. Otherwise,
the system may fail to work properly, resulting in serious injury.
Extension of the cable must be within a specified length. If it isn't, safety
function may not work properly, resulting in danger.
To use the F3SJ in PSDI mode (Reinitiation of cyclic operation by the
protective equipment), you must configure an appropriate circuit between the
F3SJ and the machine. For details about PSDI, refer to OSHA1910.217,
IEC61496-1, and other relevant standards and regulations.
For the F3SJ to comply with IEC 61496-1 and UL 508, the DC power
supply unit must satisfy all of the following conditions:
• Must be within the rated power voltage (24V DC ± 20%)
• Must have tolerance against the total rated current of devices if it is
connected to multiple devices
• Must comply with EMC directives (industrial environment)
• Double or reinforced insulation must be applied between the primary and
secondary circuits
• Automatic recovery of overcurrent protection characteristics (reversed L
sagging)
• Output holding time must be 20ms or longer
• Must satisfy output characteristic requirements for class 2 circuit or
limited voltage current circuit defined by UL508
• Must comply with laws and regulations, regarding EMC and electrical
equipment safety, of the country or region where the F3SJ is used (Ex: In
EU, the power supply must comply with the EMC Directive and the Low
Voltage Directive.)
PRECAUTIONS ON SAFETY
Make sure to observe the following precautions that are necessary for
ensuring safe use of the product.
• Thoroughly read this manual and understand the installation procedures,
operation check procedures, and maintenance procedures before using the
product.
• Loads must satisfy both of the following conditions:

□□
), use a cable with the same or
superior specification. Connect the shield to the 0V line.
•When replacing the cable connectors with other types of connectors, use
connectors that provide a protection grade of IP54 or higher.
•Properly perform the wiring after confirming the signal names of all the
terminals.
•Do not operate the control system until 2 seconds or more (2.2 seconds or
more in case of series connection) after turning ON the power of the F3SJ.
•Be sure to route the F3SJ cable separate from high-potential power lines or
through an exclusive conduit.
•When using a commercially available switching regulator power supply,
make sure to ground the FG terminal (frame ground terminal).
•Install the emitter and receiver so that their vertical direction should match.
•If the protective height is 600 mm or more, use intermediate mounting
brackets of specified quantities and locations according to the dimensions.
If the brackets described above are not used, ratings and performance cannot
be not met.
•Sharing the power supply with other devices may cause the F3SJ to be
affected by noise or voltage drop. It is recommended that the F3SJ use a
dedicated power supply but do not share with other devices.
■
Cleaning
Do not use thinner, benzene, or acetone for cleaning, because they affect the
product's resin parts and paint on the case.
■
Object detection
The F3SJ cannot detect transparent and/or translucent objects.
■
Wiring and installation
•Make sure to perform wiring while the power supply is OFF. Otherwise, the
F3SJ may fail to operate due to the diagnosis function.
•Do not short-circuit output lines to +24V line. Otherwise a fault of F3SJ may
occur.
