Electrical connections (power, ground, inputs and outputs) are made via unique RD (removable disconnect) cordsets. A
"System" as referred to in this manual, is defined as an emitter and its receiver, plus their cabling.
Available features include selectable scan code via hookup, an auxiliary fault output, a recessed exit window, and robust
metal housing and end-caps for industry leading durability.
Both emitter and receiver feature 7-segment Diagnostic Displays and individual LEDs to provide continuous indication of
operating status, configuration and error conditions. An adhesive Diagnostics label is provided that includes a summary of
the operational and error codes. Active Alignment (Segment) Indicators provide beam block information and easier
on page 49 for more information.
3.1 Appropriate Applications and Limitations
WARNING: Read this Section Carefully Before Installing the System
If all mounting, installation, interfacing, and checkout procedures are not followed properly, the Banner
device cannot provide the protection for which it was designed. The user is responsible for ensuring that
all local, state, and national laws, rules, codes, or regulations relating to the installation and use of this
control system in any particular application are satisfied. Ensure that all legal requirements have been
met and that all technical installation and maintenance instructions contained in this manual are followed.
The user has the sole responsibility to ensure that this Banner device is installed and interfaced to the
guarded machine by Qualified Persons
1
, in accordance with this manual and applicable safety
regulations. Failure to follow these instructions could result in serious injury or death.
The EZ-SCREEN LS Basic ability to perform its safeguarding function depends upon the appropriateness of the application
and upon its proper mechanical and electrical installation and interfacing to the guarded machine. If all mounting,
installation, interfacing, and checkout procedures are not followed properly, the EZ-SCREEN LS Basic cannot provide the
protection for which it was designed.
CAUTION: Install System Only on Appropriate Applications
Banner EZ-SCREEN LS Basic is for use only on machinery that can be stopped immediately after a stop
signal is issued at any point in the machine's stroke or cycle, such as part-revolution clutched machines.
Under no circumstances may the EZ-SCREEN LS Basic be used on full-revolution clutched machinery or
in unsuitable applications as those listed. If there is any doubt about whether or not your machinery is
compatible with the EZ-SCREEN LS Basic, contact Banner Engineering.
3.1.1 Appropriate Applications
EZ-SCREEN LS Basic is typically used for, but is not limited to, the following applications:
• Automated production equipment
• Robotic work cells
• Molding and power presses
• Assembly and packaging machines
• Lean manufacturing systems
3.1.2 Examples: Inappropriate Applications
Do not use EZ-SCREEN LS Basic in the following applications:
• With any machine that cannot be stopped immediately after a stop signal is issued, such as single-stroke (or full-
revolution) clutched machinery
• With any machine with inadequate or inconsistent machine response time and stopping performance
• With any machine that ejects materials or component parts through the defined area
• In any environment that is likely to adversely affect photoelectric sensing efficiency. For example, corrosive
chemicals or fluids or unusually severe levels of smoke or dust, if not controlled, may degrade sensing efficiency
• As a tripping device to initiate or reinitiate machine motion (PSDI applications), unless the machine and its control
system fully comply with the relevant standard or regulation (see OSHA 29CFR1910.217, ANSI/NFPA 79, ANSI
B11.19, ISO 12100, IEC 60204-1, IEC 61496-1, or other appropriate standard)
