SICK S30B-2011GB Sensor
SICK S30B-2011GB safety laser scanner. Field-based personnel protection for machinery and automated guided vehicles.
Overview
The SICK S30B-2011GB is a safety laser scanner of the S30B family. It monitors hazardous areas and hazardous points with configurable fields and provides safe switching outputs for personnel protection on stationary machines and automated guided vehicles.
How It Works
The scanner emits pulsed infrared light across its scanning plane and computes a distance profile via time of flight. Protective fields configured in the device are evaluated continuously; when violated, the safe outputs open and the machine control executes the safe stop.
