SICK S30A-7011EA S3000 Safety Laser Scanner

SICK S30A-7011EA S3000 Safety Laser Scanner

Product Introduction

The S30A-7011EA belongs to the SICK S3000 Remote series. This safety laser scanner delivers reliable 2D LiDAR protection for industrial automation. It uses pulsed laser time-of-flight measurement at 905 nm. The device is eye-safe under IEC 60825-1:2014 Class 1. Its protective field reaches 7.0 m, while the radial warning field extends to 49 m. Therefore, it suits both close-range and long-range safety monitoring.

This unit is a guest scanner. It works with a host scanner or Flexi Soft safety controller through a safe EFI bus. Unlike standard scanners, it has no local OSSD outputs. Instead, all configuration and diagnostics flow through the EFI gateway. As a result, wiring becomes simpler and centralized control becomes easier. The S30A-7011EA is ideal for automated guided vehicles, robot cells, and palletizing systems.

Technical Specifications

The S30A-7011EA provides a protective field range of 7.0 m and a warning field range of 49 m. Its light source is a pulsed laser diode at 905 nm. The average optical power stays below 1 mW, which keeps it Class 1 eye-safe. Response time is ≤ 60 ms and can be configured from 60 ms to 120 ms via sampling rates. Furthermore, the scanning angle covers 190° with 0.25° or 0.5° angular resolution.

Object resolution is configurable: 30 mm, 40 mm, 50 mm, 70 mm, or 150 mm. This flexibility helps match different detection needs. Safety integrity meets Type 3 per IEC 61496-1 and -3. It also achieves SIL 2 per IEC 61508, SILCL 2 per EN 62061, and PL d / Category 3 per EN ISO 13849-1. Systematic measurement error is typically ± 35 mm. These ratings confirm the scanner's high reliability in safety-critical tasks.

Interface and Electrical Data

Communication relies on a safe EFI device interface. There are no local OSSD outputs. All signals are managed through an EFI host or gateway. The supply voltage is DC 24 V, with an operating range of 16.8 V to 28.8 V. It requires SELV or PELV safety extra-low voltage. Power consumption is typically 19 W without external output loads. The electrical connection uses a system plug with EFI bus connection. Consequently, installation is fast and less prone to wiring errors.

Mechanical and Environmental Parameters

The S30A-7011EA operates between -10 °C and +50 °C. Storage temperature ranges from -20 °C to +70 °C. Its enclosure protection rating is IP65 per EN 60529. Therefore, it resists dust and water jets. Physical dimensions are 155 mm x 185 mm x 160 mm (W x H x D). The housing uses aluminum die-cast with a polycarbonate optical hood. Device weight is approximately 3.3 kg. These features allow mounting in harsh industrial environments.

Installation Guide

First, select a mounting position with a clear view of the protected area. Next, secure the scanner using the appropriate mounting bracket. Then, connect the system plug to the EFI bus cable. After that, configure the protective and warning fields via the Flexi Soft software. Finally, perform a safety check and verify response time settings. Proper alignment prevents blind spots and ensures full coverage.
