SICK S30B-2011BA Safety Laser Scanner S300

SICK S30B-2011BA Safety Laser Scanner S300

Product Introduction

The SICK S30B-2011BA belongs to the S300 Standard product version. It ships as a sensor without a system plug. This Type 3 safety laser scanner suits indoor applications. Specifically, it provides a protective field range of 2 m and a warning field range of 8 m at 15% reflectivity. Its distance measuring range reaches 30 m. Therefore, it fits entry guarding, small machine cells, and conveyor protection.

Technical Specifications

First, the S30B-2011BA scans with an angle of 270°. The angular resolution is 0.5°. Meanwhile, the response time is 80 ms. The protective field supplement is 100 mm. The scanner uses triple field sets. It stores 1 field set, 3 fields, and 1 monitoring case. These values support simple, fixed safeguarding tasks.

The resolution is configurable across several options. Choices include 30 mm, 40 mm, 50 mm, and 70 mm. This range helps users match detection capability to the task. Furthermore, multiple samplings range from 2 to 16 and are configurable. The delay of automatic reset ranges from 2 s to 60 s and is also configurable. Besides, the device uses a pulsed laser diode with a wavelength of 905 nm. The laser class is 1 under IEC 60825-1 and 21 CFR 1040.10/1040.11. The detectable remission factor spans 1.8% to over 1,000%, including reflectors.

Safety-Related Parameters

The SICK S30B-2011BA meets Type 3 requirements per IEC 61496. It achieves SIL 2 according to IEC 61508. Moreover, it complies with Category 3 under EN ISO 13849. The performance level is PL d. The PFHD value is 8.0 x 10⁻⁸ per hour. The mission time is 20 years per EN ISO 13849. In the event of a fault, at least one OSSD enters the OFF state. Therefore, the safe state remains reliable.

Functions and Features

This scanner offers restart interlock and external device monitoring (EDM). It also supports multiple sampling for noise immunity. Contour-as-a-reference adds a further safety check. An integrated configuration memory simplifies replacement and commissioning. Measured data output runs via RS-422. Safe SICK device communication via EFI is available as well.

Interfaces and Communication

The connection type is a system plug with or without a connecting cable. The S30B-2011BA provides 5 universal I/Os. Inputs include 1 external device monitoring (EDM), 1 reset/restart, and 1 standby. Outputs include 1 OSSD pair and 3 application diagnostic outputs. Each OSSD handles 2 x 250 mA, while diagnostic outputs handle 3 x 100 mA.

Configuration uses a PC with CDS software, which stands for Configuration and Diagnostic Software. The configuration and diagnostics interface is RS-232 at 38.4 kBaud. A data interface uses RS-422 at ≤ 500 kBaud. Safe SICK device communication runs via EFI at ≤ 500 kBaud. The cable length can reach 50 m, with a conductor cross section of 0.22 mm².

Mechanical and Environmental Parameters

The supply voltage is 24 V DC, with a range of 16.8 V DC to 30 V DC. Power consumption is 0.33 A to 1.7 A. Dimensions are 102 mm x 152 mm x 106 mm. The weight is 1.2 kg. The housing is aluminum die cast with RAL 1021 yellow. The optics cover is polycarbonate with a scratch-resistant outer coating. The enclosure rating is IP65 per EN 60529.

The operating temperature range is –10 °C to +50 °C. Storage temperature spans –25 °C to +50 °C. Vibration and shock resistance follow IEC 60068 and IEC 61496 standards. Continuous shock ratings are 50 m/s² at 11 ms and 100 m/s² at 16 ms.

Installation Guide

First, choose a mounting position that covers the hazard zone. The SICK S30B-2011BA needs a clear scan plane. Next, attach the sensor using a suitable bracket. Then, connect the system plug for power and I/O wiring. The supply must stay within 16.8 V DC to 30 V DC. After wiring, configure the fields with CDS software.

Specifically, define the protective field and warning field shapes. Set the resolution to match the risk assessment. For instance, choose 30 mm for hand detection or 70 mm for body detection. Finally, verify the OSSD output and test the restart interlock. Proper alignment prevents blind spots and nuisance stops.
