Installation
connected to the “A” inputs must contain a Two-hand Control module. When you install
more than two Operator Stations, set switch 6 on S102 to ON.
When wiring dual operator stations, make sure to label each Operator Station correctly.
Install the label “A” prominently on the Operator Station wired into inputs for Operator
Station “A” or “1.” Install the label “B” prominently on the Operator Station wired into inputs
for Operator Station “B” or “2.” Test each Operator Station individually. Confirm that
selector switch position “A” controls Operator Station “A” and selector switch position “B”
controls Operator Station “B.” Also test switch position “Both” to confirm that it controls
both Operator Station “A” and Operator Station “B.”
Installing a Light Curtain
The light curtain is normally mounted in front of the die space and must be located at least the
safety distance from the pinch point. This location ensures that the light curtain can send a
Stop command to the press in time for the press to stop before anyone can reach the pinch
point. Any opening or access to the die space that is not guarded by the light curtain must be
guarded by mechanical barriers.
To determine the Stopping Time of the press, refer to page 3-14. To calculate the correct
safety distance, see page 3-19.
PREVENT OPERATOR FROM STANDING BETWEEN LIGHT CURTAIN AND HAZARDOUS AREA
Ensure that the operator cannot position himself between the light curtain and the hazardous area.
Use another pair of light curtains or a mechanical barrier at knee to waist height to prevent the
operator or a passerby from being “trapped” between the light curtain and the hazard.
Failure to comply with these instructions will result in death or serious injury.
INCORRECT LIGHT CURTAIN INSTALLATION
• Mount the light curtains at the correct safety distance as instructed in Calculating the Safety
Distance, page 3-19. The light curtain will only provide full protection for operators when
mounted at the correct safety distance.
• Install and wire your light curtains correctly, following the instructions in your Shadow manual
and referring to Figures 3, 10, 11, 15, 16, 18, and 19 at the end of this manual.
Failure to comply with these instructions will result in death or serious injury.
You cannot permanently mount the light curtain until the WPC 2000 is working properly and you
have measured the Stopping Time, set the brake monitor, and calculated the correct safety
distance. However, you will be able to wire the light curtain.
