SICK’s deTem Core Light Curtains Set New Standards for Multi-beam Protection
safeguard the area surrounding hazardous machinery with the launch of the deTem Core family of safety light curtains for applications up to SIL3 / PL ‘e’ (Type 4). The deTem2 Core and deTem4
S Industrial Automation B
alluff have announced that the BML S1G-series absolute magnetic linear encoder is now available
with SIL 2 certification. The SIL 2 certification means that the high-performance BML S1G can be used in machine safety applications. The BML S1G absolute encoder is already a class-leading
option for highly accurate, highly dynamic position feedback. The new SIL 2 certification allows machine designers to take advantage of this high-performance absolute position feedback system with an added value of machine safety applications in one device. The SIL 2 rating means that the BML system can be used in conjunction with a safety controller in critical applications, such as those where machine movement must be either prevented or slowed to a speed that is considered safe. Furthermore, BML S1G with SIL 2 enables users to implement safety functions such as Safely Limited Speed (SLS), Safe Stop 1 (SS1), and Safe Torque Off (STO).

Core multibeam range complement SICK’s popular deTec4 and deTec2 light curtain range. The deTem’s long range and space-saving capability enable the safety distances around machines to be minimised without compromising productivity. “The SICK deTem4/2 Core multi- beam light curtains are particularly useful where long range access protection is needed, or where an alternative is needed to extensive physical guarding, or if multiple light curtains are being used to protect a large area. “Setting up and commissioning the deTem light curtains does not require a PC, so operators can quickly be assured of protection against unsafe access with minimal interruption to operation. From the system integrator’s viewpoint, the deTem2 Core and deTem4 Core models are also simple to incorporate into the safety system design.” The SICK deTem4 Core and deTem2 Core offer protection
with two, three or four beams with beam separations of 500mm, 400mm or 300mm respectively and can cover a range up to a massive 80 metres, adding further versatility.
ICK has set new standards in the use of multiple light beams to
As the SICK deTem4/2 Core light curtains work
only in protective mode, configuration and range adjustment is automatic, requiring no additional set-up. Diagnostic codes are simple and additional functions can be set up via safety relays, or the SICK Flexi Classic or Flexi Soft safety controllers.
