The laser scanner conforming to the Ethernet standard can greatly simplify the management of the safe area on the factory floor. The OmronOS32C safety laser scanner provides compact and versatile condition detection to protect machine operators and plant employees. With the integrated Ethernet interface, the scanner can be easily configured from a remote PC with very few inputs. Supervisors can monitor status from the desktop and analyze the cause of any emergency stops, which can help improve security practices and reporting. Multiple OS32Cs can be connected to the LAN and monitored sequentially.
Each sensor allows a safe area with a radius of no more than 4 meters and two warning areas with no more than 15 meters, and can generate alarms, speed control signals or emergency stops when the conditions of the zone are violated. It also has a direction monitoring function, and thanks to its 270 ° wide detection angle, intrusions can be detected from either side.
OS32C includes a removable sensor block and an I / O block for storing the configuration. This allows any damaged sensor to be replaced quickly and easily without reprogramming. The I / O block can be inserted into the cable from the back or side for greater flexibility. The company said that these sensors are 104.5 mm in diameter and weigh 1.3 kg, consuming only 5W of active power and 3.75W of standby power, making them easy to operate and install.
