EOS2 SAFETY LIGHT CURTAIN
INTRODUCTION
The EOS2 light curtain is an optoelectronic safety device belonging to the category of
Type 2 electro-sensitive protective equipment for the protection of personnel exposed to
risks inherent in the use of dangerous machines or plants, complying with the
IEC 61496-1,2 and EN 61496-1 standards.
The EOS2 is available in three different versions:
1. EOS2 A
Type 2 light curtain consisting of Emitter plus Receiver with automatic reset.
2. EOS2 X (With integrated control functions)
Type 2 light curtain consisting of Emitter plus Receiver with integration of additional
functions such as control of feedback from any external contactors and management of
manual/automatic operation.
3. EOS2 XM/XS (MASTER/SLAVE)
Type 2 light curtain (with integrated control functions) comprising two (or three) TX/RX
pairs (connected in series), one of which comprising the MASTER light curtain (with
integrated functions) and one (or two) the SLAVE light curtain.
A set of indicator leds on the Emitter and Receiver provide the information needed for a
correct use of the device and for the assessment of any malfunction. The automatic fault
sensing system permits independent detection by the EOS2 light curtain of any
dangerous fault in a time equal to the light curtain response time.
For any safety problem, if necessary, consult the safety authorities of the country ofuse or the competent industrial association.
For applications in the food industry, consult the manufacturer to verify compatibilityof light curtain materials with the chemical agents used.
The protection capability of optoelectronic safety devices is not effective in cases inwhich:
- The machine stopping device cannot be actuated electrically and it is not possible
to stop all dangerous machine movements immediately and at any time during the
operating cycle.
- The dangerous condition is associated with the falling of objects from above or
ejection of these from the machine.
- Anomalous forms of light radiation are present (for example, use of cablelless
control devices on cranes, radiation from weld spatter, etc).
In this case additional measures may be necessary to ensure that the ESPE does not
fail to danger.

EOS2 SAFETY LIGHT CURTAIN
PRINCIPLE OF OPERATION
If the protected area is clear, the two outputs on the Receiver are active and
enable the machine to which they are connected to operate normally.
Each time that an object bigger than or equal in size to the resolution of the
system intercepts the optical path of one or more beams, the Receiver deactivates
its own outputs.
This condition enables dangerous machine movements to be stopped (by means
of an adequate machine emergency stop circuit).
ÎResolution is the smallest sized object that, passing through the protected area,
interrupts at least one of the beams generated by the light curtain (Figure 1),
causing certain intervention of the device and consequent stopping of the
dangerous movement of the machine.
Figure 1 - Resolution
P = Pitch between two lenses
D = Diameter of a lens
R = Resolution = P+D
P
R
D
Receiver
Emitter
Beam
Resolution remains constant regardless of working conditions as it depends only on the
geometric characteristics of the mirrors and on the centre distance between two adjacent
lenses.
The height of the protected area is the effective height protected by the safety light
curtain. If the curtain is positioned horizontally, this value indicates the depth of the
protected area.
The working range indicates how far the emitter and receiver can be separated and
function properly.
EOS2 is available with the following resolutions:
•30mm (protected heights from 150mm to 1500mm): PROTECTION OF THE HANDS.
•40mm (protected heights from 300mm to 1500mm): PROTECTION OF THE HANDS.
•50mm and 90mm (protected heights from 300mm to 1800mm):
PROTECTION OF THE LIMBS.
English
The EOS2 is also available in a Multibeam version with a distance between the
mirrors of:
•500mm (2 beams), 400mm (3 beams), 300mm (4 beams).
PROTECTION OF THE BODY.

Positioning
The Emitter EOS2E and the Receiver EOS2R must be positioned so that it is
impossible to access the dangerous area from above, from below and from the
sides without intercepting one of the beams. Useful indications for correct
positioning of the light curtain are provided in the figure below.

Master/Slave Positioning
In addition to standard models (that can be positioned either horizontally or vertically),
EOS2 can be purchased in a MASTER/SLAVE configuration. This configuration comprises
two (or three) pairs of light curtains in which the two (or three) Emitters and the two (or
three) Receivers are connected in series.
SLAVE
SLAVE SLAVE2
MASTER MASTER
Figure 3 – Examples of Master/Slave configurations
The connection cable between the master and slave may be up to 50 metres in length.
This characteristic permits configuration of an application with two light curtains
positioned one at the front and one at the rear of the dangerous machine, with a single
connection towards the machine power and control circuits (Figure 4).
English

EOS2 SAFETY LIGHT CURTAIN
Calculation of safety distance
The light curtain must be positioned at a distance equal to or greater than the minimum
safety distance Sso that the dangerous point can be reached only after stopping the
dangerous movement of the machine (Figure 5).
According to the EN999:2008 European standards, the minimum safety distance Smust
be calculated using the following formula :
S = K (t1 + t2) + C
C = 8 (d-14)
where:
S Minimum safety distance mm
K Operator approach speed to the dangerous area mm/sec
t1 Total response time of the light curtain, in seconds sec
t2
Response time of the machine in seconds, i.e. the time taken by
the machine to stop the dangerous movement from the moment
in which the stop signal is transmitted

C Additional distance that varies according to the application1mm
d Resolution mm
Table 2 – Safety distance
Failure to comply with the safety distance reduces or impairs the protection functionof the light curtain.
If positioning of the light curtain does not prevent the operator from accessing thedangerous zone without being detected, additional mechanical guards must be
installed.

Multiple systems
When several EOS2 are used, precautions must be taken to prevent optical interference
between these: position the elements so that the beam of the Emitter of one system is
received only by its respective Receiver.
Figure 6 provides examples of correct positioning of two photo-electric systems. Incorrect
positioning may cause interference, with possible malfunction of the system.

EOS2 SAFETY LIGHT CURTAIN
Use of deflecting mirrors
For protection or control of areas accessible from several sides, one or more deflecting
mirrors can be used in addition to the Emitter and Receiver.
Deflecting mirrors make it possible to redirect the beams generated by the Emitter on
several sides.
Wishing to deflect the beams generated by the Emitter by 90°, the perpendicular to the
surface of the mirrors must form an angle of 45° with the direction of the beams.
An application in which two deflecting mirrors have been used for "U" shaped protection
is illustrated in the figure below.
Figure 7 – Deflecting mirrors
When using deflecting mirrors, comply with the following rules:
•Position the mirrors so as to comply with the minimum safety distance S
(Figure 7) on each side of access to the dangerous area.
•The working distance (working range) is given by the sum of the lengths of all the
access sides to the protected area. (Note that the maximum working range
between the Emitter and Receiver is reduced by 15% for each mirror used).
•In the installation phase, take care to avoid twisting along the longitudinal axis of
the mirror.
•Standing close to and in axis the Receiver, check that the entire shape of the
Emitter is visible on the first mirror.
•It is advisable not to use more than three deflecting mirrors.

EOS2 SAFETY LIGHT CURTAIN
Distance from reflective surfaces
The presence of reflective surfaces close to the light curtain may cause occasionalreflections that prevent sensing. Referring to Figure 8, object Ais not detected due to
surface Sthat, reflecting the beam, closes the optical path between the Emitter and
Receiver. Therefore, a minimum distance dmust be maintained between any
reflecting surfaces and the guarded area. The minimum distance dmust be
calculated according to the distance lbetween the Emitter and Receiver and taking
into account that the angle of projection and reception is 5°.
Figure 8 - Reflective surfaces
The distance dto be kept as the distance lbetween Emitter and Receiver varies is shown
in Picture 9.
d
l
Figure 9 - Minimum distance d
English
After installing the system, check for any reflective surface that intercept the beams, first
of all at the centre and then close to the Emitter and Receiver. During this procedure, the
red led on the Receiver must never switch off.
8540738 • 2nd December 2009 • Rev.2 11

EOS2 SAFETY LIGHT CURTAIN
Mechanical assembly and optical alignment
The Emitter and Receiver must be installed facing each other, at a distance equal to or
less than that indicated in the technical data. Using the provided inserts and fastening
brackets, place the Emitter and Receiver so that they are aligned and parallel to each
other, and with the connectors facing the same side.
According to the dimensions and shape of the support to be used to install the Emitter
and Receiver, these must be mounted with the fastening inserts to the rear or inserting
these in the side spline (Figure 10).
Perfect alignment of the Emitter and Receiver is essential for efficient functioning of the
light curtain; this operation is facilitated observing the indicator leds of the Emitter and of
Receiver.
Figure 10 – Mechanical assembly
Figure 11 – Optical alignment
•Position the optical axis of the first and last beam of the Emitter on the same axis
as that of the corresponding beams on the Receiver.
•Move the Emitter in order to locate the area within which the green led on the
Receiver remains on, then position the first beam of the Emitter (that close to the
indicator led) at the centre of this area.
•Using this beam as pivot, with minor movements of the opposite end, establish the
free protected area condition which, in this situation, will be indicated by lighting
up of the green led on the Receiver.
•Lock the Emitter and the Receiver in place.
ÎIf the Emitter and Receiver are installed in areas subject to strong vibrations, vibration-
damping supports must be used (for the order code, see the ACCESSORIES/SPARES
paragraph) so as not to impair operation of the circuits.

These models are suitable for hand detection.
The minimum safety distance Sis calculated according
to the following formula:
S = 2000 (t1+ t2) + 8(D-14)
(D=resolution)
This formula is valid for distances S
between 100 and
500 mm. If, according to the calculation, Sexceeds
500 mm, the distance can be reduced down to a
minimum of 500 mm using the following formula:
S = 1600 (t1+ t2) + 8(D-14)
If, in view of the particular configuration of the
machine, the dangerous zone can be reached from
above, the highest beam of the light curtain must be at
a height H(from resting surface G) whose value is
determined by using the ISO 13855 Standard.
