SICK NANS3-AAAZ30AN1 Safety Laser Scanner SIL 2

SICK NANS3-AAAZ30AN1 Safety Laser Scanner

Product Introduction

The SICK NANS3-AAAZ30AN1 is a compact safety laser scanner from the nanoScan3 family. Specifically, it belongs to the nanoScan3 Core I/O product version and ships as a sensor without a system plug. This Type 3 device suits indoor applications that need reliable area protection. It provides a 3 m protective field range and a 10 m warning field range. Moreover, the distance measuring range reaches 40 m. The scanner monitors up to 4 fields simultaneously and stores 8 fields in total. In addition, it supports 2 monitoring cases with static protective field switching. Because of its 275° scanning angle, one unit covers a wide area. Therefore, the NANS3-AAAZ30AN1 works well on automated guided vehicles, robot cells, and palletizing stations. Its aluminum housing and IP65 rating also handle dusty factory floors.

Technical Specifications

First, the protective field range is 3 m, and the warning field range is 10 m. The distance measuring range extends to 40 m. The number of simultaneously monitored fields is ≤4, while the total number of fields is 8. Additionally, the number of monitoring cases is 2. The scanning angle reaches 275°. The resolution is configurable at 20 mm, 30 mm, 40 mm, 50 mm, 60 mm, 70 mm, 150 mm, or 200 mm. Furthermore, the angular resolution is 0.17°. The response time is 70 ms, and the protective field supplement is 65 mm. For safety values, the category is Category 3 per EN ISO 13849. The performance level is PL d per EN ISO 13849. The PFHD is 8.0 x 10-8, and the mission time TM is 20 years. In the event of a fault, at least one OSSD stays in the OFF state. Besides, the device supports restart interlock, external device monitoring (EDM), multiple sampling, monitoring case switching, simultaneous monitoring, static protective field switching, safe contour detection, contour as a reference, and an integrated configuration memory.

Interfaces and Configuration

The connection type depends on the selected system plug. The scanner includes 3 universal I/Os and 1 OSSD pair. It also provides 1 universal input and 1 static control input. Configuration happens on a PC with Safety Designer, the configuration and diagnostic software. The configuration and diagnostics interface uses USB 2.0 micro USB. Meanwhile, measured data output runs via Ethernet. Supported services include CoLa 2, DHCP, and SNTP. For display, the device offers a graphic color display and LEDs.

Mechanical and Environmental Parameters

The NANS3-AAAZ30AN1 measures 106.6 mm x 80 mm x 117.5 mm including the system plug. Its weight is 0.67 kg. The housing material is aluminum in RAL 1021 yellow and RAL 9005 black. The optics cover uses polycarbonate. The enclosure rating is IP65 per IEC 60529. Ambient light immunity reaches ≤40 klx per IEC 61496-3. The ambient operating temperature ranges from -10 °C to +50 °C. Storage temperature spans -25 °C to +70 °C. For vibration, the scanner meets IEC 60068-2-6, IEC 60068-2-64, IEC 60721-3-5, and IEC 61496-3, Class 5M1. For shock, it meets IEC 60068-2-27 and IEC 61496-3, Class 5M1. Continuous shock ratings are 50 m/s² for 11 ms and 100 m/s² for 16 ms. EMC follows IEC 61496-1, IEC 61000-6-2, and IEC 61000-6-3. The light source is a pulsed laser diode at 905 nm wavelength. The detectable remission factor ranges from 1.8% to several 1000%. Laser class is 1 per 21 CFR 1040.10, 1040.11, and IEC 60825-1.

Installation Guide

Mounting the NANS3-AAAZ30AN1 begins with selecting a system plug for the connection type. First, fix the scanner so the scan plane covers the hazard area. Next, keep the protective field supplement of 65 mm in mind during layout. Then, configure the resolution between 20 mm and 200 mm for the application. After that, set up fields and monitoring cases in Safety Designer. Meanwhile, define restart interlock and external device monitoring as needed. Besides, wire the OSSD pair and universal I/Os correctly. Finally, verify the response time of 70 ms matches the machine stopping time. Avoid ambient light above 40 klx directly in the scan plane.
