Portfolio overview
SIMATIC FS100 switching strips
Pinch points are a danger on many machines and other technical installations. In
these situations, the simplest protection is implemented with rubber switching
strips that on the one hand halt the dangerous motion in a fail-safe state and
on the other hand act as a buffer to prevent injury.
The edge of the rubber strip (signal transmitter) is monitored optically by means of
a fail-safe sending/receiving sensor that is inserted into the strip from the outside.
This means that any length can be used, cut to length as required by the customer.
SIMATIC FS200 light barriers
When space is at a premium, contact-free light barriers are the ideal solution for access
protection to danger zones, danger points, or entry points.
Designed with IP65/IP69K degree of protection, in type 2 they have a range of up to
40 m according to IEC/EN 61496. The light barriers of type 4 according to IEC/EN 61496
with up to 60 m range feature frequency-modulated IR and integrated accumulated dirt
monitoring. Additional evaluation units support start/restart inhibiting or contactor
control.
SIMATIC FS400 light curtains, light grids and transceivers
The electro-sensitive and active optoelectronic light curtains and grids for SIL 2 and 3 ac-
cording to IEC 61508, PL d and e according to ISO 13849-1, or types 2 and 4 according
to IEC/EN 61496 protect operating personnel working on or near running machines and
systems. Thanks to specially developed integrated circuits (ASICs) and a patented, intel-
ligent evaluation technique, they are extremely fault-tolerant and highly available.
A wide range of different functions, including start/restart inhibiting, contactor control,
muting, cycle control and blanking, support a wide range of different applications
such as finger and hand protection, horizontal danger zone protection, or access protec-
tion for large areas. Versions for communication with ASIsafe and PROFIsafe are avail-
able.
SIMATIC FS600 laser scanners
Laser scanners are optical distance sensors for the flexible protection of danger
zones when used horizontally, or for providing access protection and motion
monitoring when used vertically. They offer perfect all-round protection up to cate-
gory 3 according to EN 954-1, SIL 2 according to IEC 61508, and PL d according
to ISO 13849-1. With an operating angle of 190 and over a distance of up to
6.25 m, the laser scanner reliably detects any persons and objects. With up to eight

Overview of safety categories and standards
Machine manufacturers and operators are required by law
to ensure the safety of people and the environment.
As your partner, we offer support not only with the relevant
safety-oriented products and systems, but always with
up-to-date knowledge of international standards and
regulations.
The EN ISO 13849-1 standard
EN ISO 13849-1 "Safety of machinery - Safety-related parts
of control systems - Part 1: General principles for design"
is based on the familiar categories in EN 954-1:1996.
It considers the complete safety functions with all devices in-
volved in their implementation. With EN ISO 13849-1, safety
functions are also investigated from a quantitative perspective
going beyond the qualitative basis of EN 954-1. Performance
levels (PL) are used, for this purpose, based on the various cat-
egories. It may be applied to safety-related parts of control
systems (SRP/CS) and all types of machines, regardless of the
technology and energy used - electrical, hydraulic, pneumatic,
mechanical, etc.
The EN 62061 standard
The standard EN 62061 "Safety of machinery Functional
safety of electrical, electronic and programmable machine
control systems" considers for the first time the total
safety chain, from sensor to actuator.
In order to reach a safety integrity level such as SIL 3, it is no
longer enough that the individual components have the rele-
vant certification. Instead, the entire safety function must be
matched to the defined requirements. Demands on the per-
formance of non-electrical safety-related control elements for
machines such as hydraulic, pneumatic, or electro-mechan-
ical elements are not defined in the standard.

SIMATIC FS100 switching strips 7
SIMATIC FS100 switching strips
for reliable and flexible protection from pinch points
Pinch points and cutting edges represent a safety risk on
many machines and technical equipment. In these situa-
tions, the simplest protection is implemented with rubber
switching strips that on the one hand halt the dangerous
motion in a fail-safe state and on the other hand act as a
buffer to prevent injury.
The switching strips are characterized by simple configura-
tion, high performance, and easy installation. For rapid on-
site installation, the switching strips are simply cut and
mounted without glue.
Together with the evaluation unit, they form a safety system
approved according to IEC/EN 61496
1)
up to type 4.
Function principle
The rubber strip (signal transmitter) is monitored optically by
means of a fail-safe sending/receiving sensor that is inserted
into the strip from the outside. This means that any length can
be used, cut to length as required by the customer (max.
10 m).
The IR light beam passes through the strip. If it is altered or
interrupted, this will cause shutdown. Due to the reflective
inner surface, the rubber profile can be bent to a certain
extent. Shutdown can be actuated from above or from the
side.
The evaluation units in the 22.5 mm enclosure are suitable for
fail-safe monitoring in control circuits up to type 4 according
to IEC/EN 61496
1)
. Two relay safety outputs and an HL signal-
ing contact are available. The unit can be operated with auto-
matic or manual restart.

Functionality Standard and sequence control
Contactor control
The contactor control monitors the contactors, relays, or
valves connected downstream of the light curtain.
Contact blocks with positive action contacts are required.
Start/restart inhibit
To prevent the system from immediately restarting when the
protective zone is clear following a trigger, the start/reset in-
hibitor can be activated. The use of the start/reset inhibitor is
required for access protection, because only the entry to the
danger zone is monitored but not the area between the pro-
tective zone and the dangerous motion.
Sequence control
If it is necessary to enter the light curtain's protective field
once or twice (e.g. to place or remove workpieces), the se-
quence control function should be selected. This functionality
is primarily required in presses.
Increased resistance to strong extraneous light
(Multi-Scan)
If strong interference is expected due to extraneous light in
harsh environments, for example due to welding robots or
strobe lamps, when the beam is interrupted it is often simpler
to first wait to see if the disruption continues before the out-
puts are switched off.
The availability of the system is thus increased, but the re-
sponse time and thus the safety clearance are also increased.
SafetyLab diagnostics and parameterization software
Alternatively, with the optional SafetyLab diagnostics and pa-
rameterization software, the functions of the light curtains,
light grids, and transceivers can easily be set for type 4 in ac-
cordance with IEC/EN 61496 using the PC. SafetyLab can be
used for devices of the function packages blanking, muting
and sequence control.
SafetyLab automatically recognizes the function
package and displays only the settings available to it
Definition of 1-channel and 2-channel contact
safety circuits
Different status signals can be assigned to status signal
outputs
Modification of the display content of the 2x7-segment
display
Linking of beam areas with internal signals, etc.
Siemens AG 2009
SIMATIC FS400 light curtains
Functionality blanking
If there are objects permanently in the area of the light
curtain, these may be hidden using the blanking functions
so that trouble-free operation is ensured. A distinction is
made between objects in a fixed location which are per-
manently located in the protective zone, and moving
objects which can temporarily leave the protective zone.
Configuration is implemented by means of the teach-in
function, the DIP switch, the safety keys, or the SafetyLab
diagnostics and parameterization software.
Fixed blanking
If an object is permanently located in the light path, the corresponding zone
can be suppressed. This is achieved by suppressing the required number of beams.
The object must be permanently located in the area of the hidden beams. If this is
not the case, the light curtain switches the system off, because otherwise safety
can no longer can be ensured.
.
Floating blanking
If moving objects are located in the light path, any number of beams can be suppressed.
The objects can move within the suppressed beams without the light curtain switching
off.
If the moving objects are removed from the zone, the light curtain will interrupt the
hazardous movement, otherwise safety can no longer be guaranteed.
Reduced resolution
If an object is located in the light path, two or three beams can be suppressed. The
difference between reduced resolution and floating blanking is that continuous
monitoring does not take place.
The "reduced resolution" function changes the effective resolution of the light curtain.
The safety clearance must be recalculated for the new resolution.
Siemens AG 2009
SIMATIC FS400 light curtains, light grids and transceivers
Functionality muting
When arranged vertically, light curtains, light grids and
transceivers are often used for protecting access points.
With additional sensor signals, the protective function can
be suppressed to allow material to be transported in or out
of danger zones, for example. The protective field is
temporarily suppressed and, once the goods have passed
through, reactivated.
Muting restart
If the power fails while goods are passing the muting sensors,
for example, the valid muting sequence is interrupted. When
the power supply has been restored, muting is not automati-
cally resumed because the muting sequence is not as expect-
ed. To remove the goods from the area covered by the
muting sensors, an integrated retraction mode can be activat-
ed using the start key.
4-sensor sequential muting
If the material that is to be transported into the danger zone
always has the same dimensions and there is no lack of space,
sequential muting is preferred.
With sequential muting, four muting sensors are connected.
These must be activated in a predefined sequence to trigger
muting. All four sensors must be activated simultaneously for a
short time.
2-sensor parallel muting
Parallel muting is ideal in plants in which the dimensions of the
transported goods are not constant or space requirements
must be kept to a minimum.
This procedure is also used when transport it to take place in
both directions. In addition, two muting sensors are arranged
such that their beams cross behind the protective field in the
danger zone.
3-sensor direction muting
3-sensor direction muting is configured in a similar way to
2-sensor parallel muting. Material can only be transported
through the light curtain in one direction.
To trigger the muting function, muting sensor M1 must first be
activated, followed by muting sensors M2 and M3. If the paths
for muting sensors M2 and M3 are interrupted, sensor M1 does
not need to be activated.
4-sensor parallel muting
If the transported material is too small to be simultaneously
recognized by 4 sequentially arranged sensors, and the applica-
tion offers no space to create the light barriers cross for
2-sensor parallel muting, 4-sensor parallel muting, e.g. using
light scanners, is a possibility. The function of 4-sensor parallel
muting corresponds to that of 2-sensor parallel muting.
However, the activation signal is obtained from two sensor
pairs.

Evaluation units and accessories
Evaluation units
The evaluation units form a flexible product family of interface
modules for light curtains and light grids. The modular device
series can be used up to type 4 according to IEC/
EN 61496, SIL 3 according to IEC/EN 61508, or PL e according
to EN ISO 13849-1.
They expand the functionality of the light curtains and grids to
include startup/restart inhibit and contactor control as well as
cycle control and muting depending on the device version.
This product family also offers an extensive range of addition-
al functions such as early error warning for the relay contacts,
a PC diagnostics function, as well as many signaling outputs to
a higher-level controller.
Versions:

Accessories
For simple installation and rapid commissioning of light cur-
tains and light grids, a practical range of accessories is avail-
able.
The light curtains and light grids for floor mounting can thus
be mounted and adjusted ruggedly in mounting columns of
different lengths without additional lateral mounts.
An appropriate mounting system is available for the efficient
mounting of muting sensors. With the installation of optional
protective screens, damage and scratches on the devices can
also be avoided in difficult ambient conditions, thus increas-
ing the availability of the machinery.
ASIsafe modules are available with high degrees of protection
to allow cost-effective connection of conventional light cur-
tains, grids and transceivers to the the AS-Interface Safety at
Work on the field level.

SIMATIC FS600 laser scanners 19
SIMATIC FS600 laser scanners
An all-round view for safety
The SIMATIC FS600 laser scanners work over an angle of
190 and at a distance of up to 6.25 m. In this area, the laser
scanner reliably detects any persons and objects.
It works like this: The distance sensor emits light pulses at reg-
ular intervals. If they hit an obstruction, the sensor receives
the reflected light and evaluates it. If this is evaluated as the
predefined area to be protected, a stop function is triggered.
With up to 8 programmable protective field pairs that can be
selected during operation, our laser scanners can be optimally
adapted to any application on machines, production robots,
conveyor systems, or vehicles.
Different versions support optimal integration in the automa-
tion system: Conventionally in the safety circuit, over
PROFIBUS with PROFIsafe, or over AS-Interface with ASIsafe.
Standard applications
Vertical as well as horizontal danger zone protection
with multiple protective fields
Safeguarding of hazard points (hand and arm protection)
Traverse path monitoring for automated guided vehicle
systems
Collision protection for material handling equipment
with linear traverse path
Area protection and access control

Laser scanner for small protection zones and motion monitoring
Application in small protection zones
The SIMATIC FS660 SR (Short Range) laser scanner has been
designed for safety engineering applications in small protec-
tion zones of up to 2.15 m. Based on the functionality of the
FS660I devices with horizontal and vertical protection, the la-
ser scanner also impresses customers with its attractive price.
Applications:
Automated guided vehicle systems with low speeds and
short braking distances (usually 1.5 to 2 m)
Stationary use for access protection at low entrances, e.g.
at robot cells, or for area protection on punches or presses
Motion monitoring for material handling equipment with
linear traverse path
The SIMATIC FS670 laser scanners for motion monitoring have
been specially designed for applications material handling
equipment with linear traverse path. In addition to the stan-
dard safety functions for operator protection, it reliably calcu-
lates distances for positioning as well as velocities.
It monitors up to 6 different velocities and will automatically
correct the selected protective field if necessary. No additional
incremental encoders are required due to the integrated ve-
locity calculation - the safety laser scanner and the standard
PLC together execute all the functions of velocity-dependent
monitoring of the protective field.
SIMATIC FS670
Distance measurement for positioning
Eight programmable and switchable protective zones
with different ranges of 2.15, 4, and 6.25 m
Resolution adjustable from 30 to 150 mm
Velocity measurement for the selected protective
field and, if necessary, correction, warning, as well as
monitoring of the maximum velocity
Automatic calculation of the protective fields for
motion monitoring with LS4Soft software
Maximum reliability even in case of temporary
disturbances in the measuring zone
Up to 6 different velocities can be monitored
Orientation requires just a fixed reference value
(e.g. a wall)
No need for additional incremental encoders due to
integral velocity monitoring
No additional safety PLC required for protective field
switchover
LS4Soft software
Collision protection for shifting units Traverse path monitoring for automated guided
vehicle systems
