Safeguarding


Sensing edges

Optical Sensing Edges (OSE, Cat.3)

Safety edges are used wherever moving edges pose a hazard to people. The hazardous areas are protected by hollow rubber profiles. As soon as a person or object touches them, the sensing profile is deformed, and the potentially hazardous movement stops.

Optical Sensing Edges (OSE, Cat.4)

Safety edges are used wherever moving edges pose a hazard to people. The hazardous areas are protected by hollow rubber profiles. As soon as a person or object touches them, the sensing profile is deformed, and the potentially hazardous movement stops.

Optical Sensing Edges (OSE, UL)

Safety edges are used wherever moving edges pose a hazard to people. The hazardous areas are protected by hollow rubber profiles. As soon as a person or object touches them, the sensing profile is deformed, and the potentially hazardous movement stops.

OPTOCHAIN

The OPTOCHAIN is a modular system of sensing edges for the use on automatic doors and machines. It is made up of one master sensing edge and up to four slave safety edges which are connected in series. The master is a low power version of the well-known OPTOEDGE.

Light curtains

GridScan/Pro SI

GridScan/Pro SI is a highly reliable SIL 2-certified safety light curtain with a serial interface for industrial doors. Certified with an EC-type examination, it can be used in any door. The serial interface allows for the integration of additional functions such as soft stop, increasing the door`s service life.

GridScan/Pro

GridScan/Pro is a highly reliable SIL 2-certified safety light curtain for industrial doors. Equipped with EC type examination certification, it can be used at any door. Thanks to its multi-output design and the changeable operating mode (from blanking to static), the GridScan/Pro can be integrated in all types of door control systems.

GridScan/Mini

The GridScan/Mini is an extremely compact SIL 2-certified safety light curtain. Its door blanking function allows it to be integrated into the door design. The system with an FSS output fulfills EN 13849-1 Cat. 2 without testing.

Light barriers

RAY-M

RAY-M was designed as a light barrier for a small mounting space. It generates the standard OSE signal and can be operated in combination with well known control units. The RAY-M DUO is a double beam light barrier for safeguarding of two parallel areas via one signal.

RAY-N

RAY-N photo eyes are monitored sensors, using the same proven technology as the OPTOEYE. When the signal between emitter and receiver is interrupted, the sensor sends a signal to the operator to stop and reverse the door.

OPTOEYE OPE

The OPTOEYE consists of two infrared sensors inserted into flexible rubber brackets, which are mounted next to the door opening. Installation is very easy since the LEDs indicate alignment and power.

ELS 500

The ELS 500 light barrier has a very robust design and due to the M12 housing it is easy to mount. The emitter has an adjustable emitting strength to configure the system for the used application.

Reflective sensors

RAY-RT

With its adaptable design, RAY-RT can be installed in the most challenging locations of door construction. It is designed for securing various points of the door and due to its compact size, it can even be integrated in the guide rail.

Accessoires

Cable sets (CS)

OSE cable sets contain a junction box, a spiral cable and cable gland accessories, and hence everything required to connect OSE sensors to a control device. Cable sets are provided with junction boxes and spiral cables in three sizes, each designed for different door types.

Coil cords

Coil cords are commonly used to wire the sensing edge from the moving door panel to the stationary door control unit. This solution is cost efficient and proven to work reliably. The wiring connection from the sensing edge to the coil cord is usually done within the protected environment of a junction box.

Rubber profiles

The hollow rubber profiles enclose the OSE safety light barrier. When the hollow rubber profile is deformed, the optical channel is interrupted, causing a dynamic safety signal to fail. This is detected by the control unit which interrupts the enable circuit. The potentially hazardous movement is halted.

Bumpers

Bumpers are used for long-term protection of horizontally mounted safety contact edges. In a closed state the door leaf sits on the bumpers. These protect the rubber profile and/or the inner optical closing edge device from damage.

Retainer

Most commercial doors are equipped with the proper retainer in order to install a rubber profile. For retro-fitting or door sections without the right retainer, VITECTOR by CEDES offers special retainers for the installation of sensing edges.

Controller OSE-C

For retrofitting older door systems, or for door controls without an integrated "OSE" interface, control units are required for evaluating the signal. All safety light barriers with an OSE signal can be connected to the evaluation units.

Junction boxes (JB)

The junction boxes are available in different sizes (small, medium, large), depending on the desired application. The housing can be opaque or transparent – e.g. the status LED of the safety edge is visible through the translucent lid.

Airwave accessories

Various accessories are available for the airwave switches, such as end and connection plugs, signal hoses made of PVC or silicone and airhose connectors (straight, angled or t-shaped).

Offset bracket (AC)

The mounting bracket is installed at half of the total height of the door, then wired up to the operator. This allows the coil cord to stretch only half the lenght.

UPS

The Universal Power Supply (UPS) offers a 24 V power supply for sensors, e.g. cegard/Mini. Input voltages ranging from 20 to 265 VAC or 20 to 375 VDC can be converted. The sensor’s semiconductor output will also be converted to a potential-free relay contact.

UPS Plus

The Universal Power Supply UPS Plus has two potential-free relay outputs and enables the simultaneous connection of two sensors. Input voltages can range from 20 to 265 VAC or 20 to 375 VDC.

Power line converter

The power line converter offers a 24 V power supply for sensors, e.g. cegard/Mini. Input voltages ranging from 85 to 265 VAC can be converted. The sensor’s semiconductor output is also converted to a potential-free relay contact.
