Laser Scanners LS4

Perfect all around protection up to category 3 (according to EN 954-1) is promised by our optical distance sensors. In a working angle of 190° and over a distance of up to 4.0 m (in non-safety applications up to 15 m), the laser scanner reliably detects any object or person.

This is how it works: The distance sensor transmits light pulses in regular intervals. If they hit an obstacle, the sensor receives the reflected light and analyzes it. If the defined, to be protected area is compromised, a stop function will be triggered. With up to four programmable and runtime-switchable protective field pairs, our laser scanners can be optimally adapted to any application, e.g. machines, production robots, conveyor systems and vehicles.

In doing so, the various models enable an optimal system integration with the automation: whether conventionally into the safety circuit, via PROFIBUS with PROFIsafe or via AS Interface with ASIsafe.
