More Information

The new OS3100 OptoShield from Sti is an advanced safety laser scanner that uses a harmless laser light to sense intrusions into a guarded area. The OptoShield can be configured for multiple irregularly shaped hazardous areas, making it an excellent choice for safeguarding work cells, transfer lines, robot stations, and automated guided vehicles. It’s the only laser scanner with patented intrusion indicators for instant visual feedback. Operators love it for its efficiency, as they can see where the intrusion is and clear it immediately. Best of all, the configuration software is so intuitive, you can learn it today and remember it months from now.

• 180º scan radius... scans surroundings to detect intrusions
• Intrusion indicators... light up so you can see immediately where the intrusion is coming from
• Intelligent diagnostics... clearly visible; no computer necessary!
• Change guarded areas quickly, on demand... switch between two detection sets, each offering a safety zone to stop the guarded machine and a warning zone to detect approaching object
• Intuitive interface... setup is quick with a configuration tool that has the look and feel of familiar office applications
• Easy preventive maintenance... the special diagnostics lights tell you when to give the window a quick wipe
• Robust and flexible... designed to withstand tough industrial environments; and the laser scanner works without additional reflectrors or receivers to keep the guarded area freely accessible - no physical barriers
• Safety range... 4 meters
• Warning range... 15 meters
