5 FUNCTIONING PRINCIPLES
For each protective field independently, the system manages three types of restart
prevention:
Type
Conditions for enabling machinery restart
Safety working
mode allowed
Automatic
The time interval set through the safeRS3 Designer
application (
Restart timeout
) has passed since the last
motion detection
1)
.
All
Manual
The
Restart signal
was received correctly
2)
(see
).
Always access
detection
Safe manual
1. The time interval set through the safeRS3 Designer
application (
Restart timeout
) has passed since the
last motion detection
1)
and
2. the status of the restart signal indicates that the
restart is now possible (see
).
Both (default)
and
Always restart
prevention
Note
1)
: machinery restart is enabled if no motion is detected up to 35 cm (13.8 in)
beyond the protective field.
Note
2)
: (for all types of restart) other dangerous system statuses may prevent the
restart of the machinery (e.g. diagnostic fault, sensor masking, etc.)
5.8.3
Precautions for preventing unexpected restarting
To prevent unexpected restarting, if the sensor is installed at a height of less than 30
cm (11.8 in) from the ground, a minimum distance of 50 cm (20 in) from the sensor
must be guaranteed.
Note
: if the sensor is installed at a height of less than 30 cm (11.8 in) from the ground,
an option is to enable the masking function to generate a system error if a person
stands in front of the sensor.
