Product description
This chapter provides information on the special features and properties of the
LCUR1411 interface unit and describes the construction and the operating principle of
the device, in particular the different operating modes in connection with the C4000 safety
light curtain.
Please read this chapter before mounting, installing and commissioning the device.
3.1
Special features
The LCUR1411 interface unit makes it possible to replace earlier protective devices
manufactured by SICK with the C4000 Standard/Advanced safety light curtain (for
detailed information see chapter 0 “
Reference lists for the replacement of existing ESPE”).
In this case the LCUR1411 enables the functions realised with the earlier protective
device to continue to be utilised:
Connection to an operating mode selector switch with the operating modes
–
Protective operation
–
single break PSDI mode
–
double break PSDI mode
Realisation of the related operating modes (see chapter 5.3 and the operating
instructions UE402A0010S01, chapter “PSDI mode” and the sub-sections “PSDI time
monitoring, PSDI window, Start sequence [requirements, procedure]”).
Configure restart interlock correctly!
The restart interlock must be realised in the higher level control or via the C4000 safety
light curtain (see C4000 Standard/Advanced operating instructions, chapter “Restart
interlock”).
In case of AGS and LVS, it must be checked whether they have been configured with an
internal or external restart interlock; the C4000 is then to be configured in the same way.
Observe special requirements in case of use on presses manufactured after 1980 and
with a press table height of more than 750 mm above the base!
If the LCUR1411 interface unit is used with machines/systems with PSDI mode, the
dangerous movement must be triggered within 30 s of the end of the cycle. If this time is
exceeded, it is only allowed to be possible to initiate the dangerous movement using the
control switch.
In case of AGS and LVS it is to be checked whether the PSDI time monitoring is undertaken
in the machine controller or in the ESPE; the C4000 is then to be configured in the same
way (see C4000 Standard/Advanced operating instructions, chapter “Restart interlock”).
Observe special requirements in case of use on presses with PDSI mode!
If the LCUR1411 interface unit is used with machines/systems in PSDI mode, the related
applicable national and international regulations and laws must be met.
