The "FUTURA" device has been designed and produced with the aim of eliminating or reducing
as far as possible all risks for the user. However, could result in unforeseen
conditions with some degree of danger which cannot be completely eliminated. Installation,
testing and maintenance of the "FUTURA" device must be performed exclusively by qualified
personnel following the instructions in this manual faithfully and meticulously.
The and housings are electrically connected to the earth of the internal circuit, thus to the
conductor of the connector. Contact between the housing and the chassis of the machine
(unless free of potential) must therefore be avoided. Failure to observe this precaution could
lead to damage of the units. This danger is totally avoided if the sensor units are correctly fixed by
means of the special adjustable insulating "L" brackets (or by means of optional rear shock
absorbing cylinders).
Connection of other equipment to the power source used to power the "FUTURA" device is not
recommended. This could generate electrical disturbance, jeopardising correct operation of the
various parts of the device itself.
If liquid or foreign bodies of any kind penetrate the device, stop using it immediately and
disconnect it from the power supply.
The “FUTURA” device has been designed and produced in such a way that the housing does not
have to be opened for the device to be used. Given the particular function of the device itself,
removal of the heads of the aluminium housings of the transmitter TX and receiver RX is
prohibited. No attempt should be made to repair them. Always contact the manufacturer only.
improper use
MECHANICALWARNINGS
To prevent shift of the light curtain and consequently also of the protected field, it must be fixed
solidly and precisely respecting the instructions given in paragraph 12 "Mechanical Data".
Connection cables must be arranged so as to avoid accidental contact with, for example,
abrasive, hot or sharp objects which could cause dangerous damage to the cables themselves.
In the event of damage to the connection cables, do not use the device and disconnect
immediately from the power supply. Avoid the connection cables coming into contact with water
or damp surfaces.
For increased safety, shiny surfaces near the light curtain should be opacified. While in
operation, avoid the presence of any infrared diffusing translucent screen in the protected area
as failure to calibrate the light curtain precisely or installation beyond the specified distance
could create detection uncertainty. Mark the extent of the protected area with a material
boundary. If this is not possible, increase the installation distance between the TX and RX to
ensure that the entire area providing access to the danger zone is safely included in the
protected distance PD. Use barriers with a protected height PH such as to prevent the operator
from reaching the danger zone above the upper limit or below the lower limit. In addition, prevent
access to the danger zone with other fixed material barriers where this is not possible by the use
of electro sensitive protective devices.

Ensure the two units, TX and RX, are perfectly parallel and fix using the special adjustable
insulating brackets at the working distance specified when ordering and reported on the rating
plate under the heading "Working Distance". Keep the Receiver out of direct sunlight.
The equipment is turned on by powering the transmitter TX and receiver RX according to the
information given on the rating plate. After about one second the device should be ready for
operation. The meaning of the light indicators is described and illustrated in detail in paragraph 7
".
After turning power to the two units on and aligning them correctly, make sure that at least the
yellow indicator on the TX and the green indicator on the RX are on. The red
indicator on the RX lights on in the presence of an obstacle inside the protected area or if the units
are not perfectly aligned. To prolong the connections, use shielded cable to avoid all
interference.
If there are shiny reflectant surfaces near the light curtain, they should ideally be coated with matt
black paint to reduce the risk of undesirable reflections.
The sensor units are normally factory calibrated for the distance requested. However, in certain
cases it may be necessary to recalibrate on site using the " " buttons on the front panel
of the top head of the emitter TX. This should be done starting from the lowest value, repeatedly
pressing the button while holding the button down until all three LEDs on the buttons
light off. At this point, without intervening in the protected zone and in the total absence of obsta
cles, repeatedly press the button only for just the number of times necessary for the green
indicator on the RX to lights on steadily. This must be performed at least twice together with
reciprocal alignment of the two sensor units. The final position of the digital compara
tor will therefore be that nearest to the GREEN RED switch point of the indicators.
Finally press the button to confirm and store the new calibration. This operation produces
the best calibration obtainable for the distance considered.
This procedure must be performed by specialist accident prevention personnel supervised by
the company safety manager who will previously have contacted the manufacturer.

Also verify correct operation using the test piece to ensure it is intercepted at all points of the area
to be protected. The minimum diameter of the test piece unequivocally intercepted at all points of
the protected area is known as the Maximum Detection Capability (from IEC EN 61496
) of the light curtain. For example, for the FUTURA 38 system this is 38 mm.
The choice between the two models must be made on the basis of the risk category attributed to
the machine, assessed in accordance with European standard . The model
is suitable for all applications with maximum accident risk, both in terms of the frequency with
which the operator is exposed to said risk and the gravity of the danger (machines listed in annex
IV of Directive 98/37). The model is suitable for all other applications where the severity
and frequency of exposure to the risk of accident is less.

To ensure the device fulfils its accident prevention functions correctly, it must be installed at a
safe distance from the point actually dangerous for the operator of the machine in such a way as
to stop the dangerous movement before that point is actually reached.
The procedure for calculating this distance is established in the harmonised European standard
EN999 which gives a number of formulas using parameters dependent on various factors
discussed below (for more detail see the standard itself).
For information only, a number of examples to calculate the installation distance from the danger
point for vertically installed light curtains with a detection capability of no more than 40 mm are
given below.
is the safe distance to be respected when installing the device
is a constant establishing the speed at which the operator approaches the danger point,
established at 2 m per second
is the time in milliseconds deriving from the sum of the time t1 taken by the machine to stop
its dangerous movement after an ALT command and the time t2 taken by the light curtain to
open the OSSDs after an obstacle has been introduced into the protected area.
is the detection capability of the in millimetres
If the result of this formula exceeds 500 mm, the value of the constant K may be reduced to 1.6 m
per second.
As is obvious, when the has a detection capability of 14 mm, the additional factor C is
zero, considerably reducing the distance in absolute value of the installation from the danger
point, in fact:
For vertically installed light curtains with a detection capability of between 40 and 70 mm, accor
ding to EN999, the formula to be used is the following:

For accesses protected by normally vertically installed multiple light beam device with a detec

The transmitter and receiver units require no particular maintenance. However, the black front
screens protecting the optics should be cleaned daily to remove large quantities of dust.
Avoid rubbing the screens with abrasive cloths as rubbing causes static electricity and attracts
dust. To clean, use alcohol. Avoid plastic solvents.
When the device is used for the first time, to guarantee safe conditions, the correct setting of the
functions must be controlled. When using the device for the first time, operation of the device in
the particular application must first be verified. This must be done by specialist personnel. Acci
dent prevention legislation specifies that this control should be performed daily.
Before beginning any form of work, it is good practice to verify that:
with the machine stationary and power to the on (no obstacle in the protected
area), the green indicator is lit.
with the machine stationary and power to the on in the presence of an obsta
cle in the protected area, the red indicator is lit.
moving parts are not accessible to personnel. Any extraordinary maintenance must
therefore be carried out under the strict supervision of the safety manager. All accesses
not pro tected by electro sensitive protective devices must be equipped with fixed material
barriers or other.
A sheet indicating the daily checks must be compiled by the operator of the machine and must
be clearly visible near the workstation.

REFERENCE CODE FOR ORDERING
All models of the "FUTURA" active infrared light curtains are calibrated during
factory testing according to the specified by the customer in the last part of
the order code. Should it be necessary to modify this distance at a later date, you should
contact the manufacturer who will modify the calibration for the new working distance.
Alternatively, contact the factory telephonically for instructions on how to proceed. For all
those models ordered with the optional function of
(AUTO), calibration takes place completely automatically for the specific distance concerned
each time power to the device is turned on.
