SX5 Safety Laser Scanner

Banner Engineering's SX5 series of safety laser scanners has expanded with master and remote models to provide advanced features for enhanced personnel and equipment protection. The SX5 master can monitor three safety zones simultaneously with three individual safety outputs. It also features 70 unique zone sets, selectable scan codes, and partial muting to mute all or part of a safety zone while protecting the remainder of the zone. The intelligent SX5 master replaces several functions traditionally performed by a safety PLC.

Features

• Versatile AGV and mobile solutions
• For applications that require monitoring multiple sides of an AGV, up to four scanners can be easily connected through an Ethernet-based safe communications bus working as a single system
• Three scanners in one
• The SX5 master with three independent safety outputs can monitor all areas simultaneously to simplify setup and reduce overall safeguarding costs
• Easy-to-implement dynamic muting
• To enable a free flow of material through the protected zones, muting sensors can be directly connected to the SX5, eliminating the expense and hassle of an external module or controller for muting
• Simple setup and installation
• This robust software features menu-driven tools that guide users through setup and make it easy to design custom safety and warning zones to accommodate existing infrastructure and meet the specific needs of any application
